My Review: This newest story from author Jennifer Honeybourn was one that I couldn't put down.  It tells you that old saying of "Be careful what you wish for".  It also gives the message of not allowing past mistakes to dictate your future.  I loved how the story all unfolded and how it ended up.  Although we do not get an epilogue the ending was pretty perfect.  

I really love how Honeybourn's writing is so vast even though her stories are under 300 pages.  They do an amazing job with making you care about characters and giving you a full story that feels like its over 400 pages.  I can not wait to see what she does next!!
