I remember reading this book in middle school with my eyes glued to every page. It was a different experience for me because it introduced impending tragedy. This is a sequel to Til Death Do Us Part. The main character, April Lancaster, is terminally ill and mourning the death of her fiancée in the first book. Her family decides to take her on a vacation. There she meeds Brandon Benedict. They spend time helping each other heal from hurtful memories of their past. With April still in mourning, s...more

TEARJERKER! LOVE STORY!
When I was reading this book from the minute i started, i knew it was going to be a very sad story. Lurlene Mcdaniel's books always have an inspirational message that come along with her writings. I did not want to put this book down i wanted to read it all the way through. I cried and cried but even though i cried i got the message across and the message will stay in my memory forever. i give this book 5 stars! :)

Oh, man. I just about stopped reading fifteen times in the two hundred pages of this book. It's incredibly over-the-top (okay, so was the last one, and so are just about all of her books, but this goes beyond even the others). The ending felt really rushed, I didn't really care about the characters, and I was kinda glad when it ended.
Actually, I think two stars is being generous...
2/5 on here, 4/10 for myself

I adore this story time and time again. It's such a bittersweet story about how April Lancaster goes on with her life after her husband Mark's sudden death from Cystic Fibrosis. You can feel her agony at moving on to love another and then the end will make you re think about your life. The one thing that I have gotten from all of Lurlene McDaniel's books are that life is way too short to be hesistant and regretful, even in painful situations. If you read this book along with a few of her other n...more

Read in middle school
Dying April goes to St. Croix and faces an unexpected romance from a local boy. About as good as the first book.
This book tore out my heart and stomped on it. Why did I read this right after the other one broke me?
