BLURB

I should have died.

I should have been forgotten.

But I didn’t, and I wasn’t.

Living the life most women only dream about, I was madly in love with my soulmate—Asher Valentine—amazing husband, loving father, and rock’s favorite kick-ass front man. A man who loved me every day, in every way, since we first met as teens. We were blessed with a beautiful daughter who was the light of our life. My all-female rock band was tearing up the charts.

Then tragedy struck, and I lost it all.

Now all I have is a stack of journals, an antique key, and a big black void where my memories should be.

Used to be.

And I have him—this man with wild hair, tattoos from head to toe, a soft voice, and an even softer touch that gives me butterflies. He’s clearly hopelessly in love with his wife.

I’m told that’s me.

But that wife is gone, and she took everything they once had, leaving me in her place.

A broken replacement. A new version that doesn’t quite fit.

I’m slowly falling in love with him, but will he ever truly love me? Or will he forever be in love with her, the phantom woman who haunts us both?

This book gave me ALL and I mean ALL the feels. Happy, sad, crying, laughing, despair, hope, joy…you freaking name it, it had it. I will be keeping this review short because I don’t want readers to have tooooooo much. It’s best to experience it for yourself and I don’t want to ruin anything.Asher is the front man in a rock band and just by looks is your typical rocker bad boy. But oh, is there so much more to him. He is a devoted and I mean 100% devoted husband, a great dad and great friend. He is head over heels with his wife and only love, Ember. I have never read two characters that embody more perfectly the word “soulmate”. The author makes their love ooze off the page and I felt it in my gut.

Tragedy strikes this amazing couple and Asher is crushed. I mean crushed. He is not the same man and feels like a part of him is lost forever. There is a hole in his heart that he thinks will never be completed. He carries on being the dutiful husband (you will see what I’m talking about) and raises his daughter.

Until one day, years later, a miracle happens and his loving wife is among the land of the living and he feels his heart will explode from happiness. Only that happiness is short lived and it’s one of the most heartbreaking things I have read. *Insert ugly cry here*.

I totally fell in love with Asher. It’s so true about don’t judge a book by its cover. I wanted him to be real and I wanted to immediately marry him! I loved his love for his wife, his marriage and his determination to keep that love going. There is so much more to this awesome book so please go read it!!
