Recommendation
First, this is not a lighthearted story. It has some very serious undertones dealing with mental illness and the toll it takes on the people around you. Cash & Sara are one of those couples you love to hate. They have been together since high school, completely enamored with one another and so deeply in love. Cash adores Sara. You feel his connection to her in every word he speaks. As their relationship evolves and grows over the years, Sara is sadly losing her battle with her mental illness and you feel the severity of the brutal reality they are both dealing with. Cash’s love for her is so strong and encompassing but the struggles and battles are almost unbearable at times. I loved them for how hard they fought and could not stop reading their story.
Excerpts
Moving her from the counter, I bring us to the floor, and she slides her sweats and panties off. Skin I love gets covered in kisses by me, and I sink two fingers inside her. The vibration of her moans is felt through my face as I lick down her chest and across her stomach. Her hands run through my hair, and she wiggles beneath me as I move my face down farther. I let my tongue explore until she can’t take it anymore, and then I grab myself and lean up to kiss her mouth as I bury myself inside her. Her head falls back, and I grasp her thighs as she links her ankles behind my back. I love her crazy away, and in this moment, her mind belongs to me.
I love her on the outside, like I love her on the inside. Deep and hard, rough and soft. Life-changing and earth-shattering. She’s everything, and I tell her over and over.
“God, baby,” he breathes. “I fucking love the way you feel.” He clutches my leg and I pull him closer, pressing my ankle into his backside. As he goes deeper, I close my eyes. I’m awed by the love he gives me, and each time he shows me, my heart beats stronger, my mind gets clearer, and my soul begs to become one with his. I love this man more than my lungs love air, and as he comes undone, I tell him over and over.
