He was taking the long road. She was taking the road to nowhere. It just so happened that they led to the same place…
When everything falls apart, love remains . . .
THE EDGE OF ALWAYS
When everything falls apart, love remains . . .
THE EDGE OF ALWAYS
Camryn Bennett has never been happier. Five months after meeting on a Greyhound bus, she and her soul mate Andrew Parrish are engaged-and a wedding isn't the only special event in their future. Nervous but excited, Camryn can't wait to begin the rest of her life with Andrew, a man she knows in her heart will love her always. They have so much to look forward to-until tragedy blindsides them.
Andrew doesn't understand how this could happen to them. He's trying to move on, and thought Camryn was doing the same. But when Andrew discovers Camryn is secretly harboring a mountain of pain and attempting to numb it in damaging ways, there is nothing he won't do to bring her back to life. Determined to prove that their love can survive anything, Andrew decides to take Camryn on a new journey filled with hope and passion. If only he can convince her to come along for the ride...
EXCERPT:
I turn to Andrew again, waiting for him to spit it
out. A cold breeze rushes through my knitted sweater, and I hide my hands
inside the sleeves.
“You have five minutes to throw all of your stuff
in your bag,” he says, and my heart is beating erratically before he finishes
the sentence. He taps his wrist where there is no watch. “Not a second more.”
“Andrew—”
“This isn’t up for debate,” he says. “Go get your
stuff.”
I just look at him, face blank.
My theory was right, but I didn’t want it to be. I
don’t want to go on the road…I mean, I do…but it’s not right.
It’s just not right.
“You have four minutes now.”
“But we can’t just leave like this,” I argue. “It
would be rude.” I point at Asher. “And Asher just got here. Don’t you want to
visit with—”
“I can visit my big brother anytime,” Asher
counters. “Right now, I think you better do what he says or you might end up on
the road wearing the same panties for a week.”
A few more seconds pass and I still haven’t moved.
I’m in a state of mild shock, I guess.
“Three minutes, babe,” Andrew says and is looking
at me with a serious face. “I’m not kidding. Get up there, throw our shit in
our bags, and get in the damn car.”
Oh hell, he’s back to his old self again…
When I start to argue again, Andrew’s eyes get all
feral-looking, and he says, “Hurry up. Time’s running out!” and he points to
the house.
Finally, letting down my guard and going with the
moment as much as I can allow myself, I glare at him and say, “Fine.” I’m only
agreeing to it because I know he’s trying make things better. But I feel guilty
as hell.
Disregarding his playful five-minute demand, I
turn on my heels and walk very slowly back toward the house, purposely taking
my time, partly my way of silently arguing the situation.
I push open the bedroom door, set my bag on the
bed, and start stuffing everything inside of it. Then I go into the bathroom
and grab our toothbrushes and various bathroom necessities. I yank our phone
chargers from the wall and then my phone from the nightstand and chuck it all into
my purse. I make my way around the room, hoping that I’m not missing anything.
Looks like Andrew already packed his stuff at some
point and I never noticed.
Then I just stand here, scanning every inch of the
place around me but not really seeing any of it. I don’t want to do this, but
maybe it’s the right thing.
I hear the horn
honk three times, and it snaps me out of my thoughts. Grabbing my bag, I swing
it over my shoulder and grab my purse from the bed.
*****My Review*****
“Our story is over, YES but out journey isn’t, because we’ll always live on the edge until the day we die.”
BEAUTIFUL, TOUCHING, BRILLIANT, I LOVE IT SO MUCH..!
I can’t seem to put into word how I
felt after reading this book. I really had a difficult time reading this one
because I don’t want to end and say goodbye to Andrew and Camryn story. The
Edge of Never is one of the best book I ever read since I started this
addictive hobby of mine. They have a special place in my heart and I can’t seem
to convince myself that their journey will finally put to an end.
This new chapter of Andrew and
Camryn takes us to a whole new level of finding the road to forever. After
Andrew near death experience they are now finding their way to what feels right
and where’s the place to settle. Their journey has been such a roller coaster
of events. They experience loss, a moment of weakness and a whole lot more.
I really love that it’s not only
Andrew POV but the author includes also Camryn. I really love getting into
Andrews head and know what he really thinks and feel. This is one of the book that when you started
reading it, you can’t put it down. You’re eager to know what will happens next
and where will the story flows.
What I really adore about this book
is that the author able to make me feel how strong Andrew and Camryn’s love.
You can feel the spark whenever they’re together. The love is radiating and
very intense that you could almost feel the same. This story made me fall in
love all over again to ANDREW PARRISH. He’s the epitome of a perfect boyfriend
or husband to be. He’s selfless, caring, loving, giving, and so freaking
handsome and SEXY..!and I love Andrew
when he’s naughty.
There’s a lot of catchy lines in
this book that made my heart swell with so much love, especially when they made
their vows. I wish I could put it here
but i know it will be a major spoiler but their vows really just so beautiful
and touching. I really cry while reading it because it is deep and unique.
Spontaneous vow is just so perfect, they just say what they really feel at that
very special moment.
After reading this I just lost in
the moment that I WISH ANDREW PARRISH REALLY DO EXIST. That I wish to
experience someday the LOVE they have. So strong and powerful that against all
the circumstances they faces they’re still inseparable. This book so far shock
me with its EPILOGUE. I really didn’t see it coming and its PERFECT..! I LOVE
IT SO MUCH..!
ANDREW and CAMRYN story will always
be one of my favourite book couple ever. Love this book so freaking much.
