Guys, I'm not okay.. Sure, I know I will be, but my #Hannick recovery is going to take some time. In the meantime, maybe talking about it will help.
The weight of their story is crushing. Incineration, fueled by both passion and hate. They are hot and cold, up and down more often than a toddler in a bouncy castle. Actually, that's a pretty accurate analogy. One moment, Nick and Hannah are bouncing along, in a strangled attempt at adjusting to their new reality, and the next they are painfully brought to their knees. Only to be launched back up, adamantly determined to keep going. See? Toddler in a bouncy castle! But that, friends is just the beginning.
I thought that the first half of this duet was pretty heart-wrenching, but I realize now that I had barely scratched the surface of their depth before now. Some background, I'm normally a book every day or two reader, but this one I had to take in slowly, over several days. And it wasn't that Nick and Hannah didn't pull me in, but that they pulled me too far. I legitimately felt them, and they were heavy. Drowning in hurt. Yet they kept going, page after page. Pushing back, desperate for a lungful of air.
Their story is one of yearning and devotion. An avenue to show us "just how fragile life is, how fleeting and small we all are.." I admit that, almost to the very end, my heart hurt for them. But I will say that life has a funny way of pulling through, the way it was always supposed to be. The struggles we face in the meantime, help show us just what strength we often don't even realize we possess. Nick and Hannah are every one of us. Pacing, pleading to the stars, hoping through the night for clarity. And all we really needed to do all along was stand still, Waiting For The Sun.
Available on Kindle Unlimited. Go, take a walk with them. Let them tell you their story. I'm not going to lie, it's going to hurt some. But, I'll let you in on a secret. .. Only the very best things do. ❤️

Synopsis:
I’m unapologetically in love with Nick Kovac.
He can claim to hate me and blame me for everything.
I’ll fight for us both.
He severs the promise he made, leaving me on the hockey rink floor, heartbroken and alone.
It doesn’t take me long to stand with my head held high, while he's being a coward. Stuck between push and pull, everything we are is in question.
Sometimes the answers are in the stars. Others, it’s where the sun shines that our lives change.
