5 +++++++stars

Wow, this book!!! I was absolutely caught up in this story about a man, Vaughn, who falls in love with, Oryn, a man with Dissociative Identity Disorder (personality disorder), and shared his mind and body with 5 very different people. Each person had a specific job in the inner circle and they all wanted to be heard.

This was definitely a hurt/comfort read with some characters being more angsty than others. I adored all of them, but I loved the way Vaughn loved all of them. I can’t ...more

If you're looking for a stellar example of soulmates, this might be the most precise portrayal I've ever seen. I've witnessed countless beautiful pairs that fit together seamlessly. However, I truly believe Vaughn was meant to love Oryn. There could be no one else. The call was for his soul and his soul alone. When things began to fall into place and these ultimate soulmates became clear, I lost my breath. I literally paused and took in the intensity of the moment. And it wasn't the last time I ...more

Breathtaking.

I can't stop thinking about it. I didn't have a lot of time to read this weekend but this book was on my mind constantly and I feel like it will be on my mind for a long time to come.

I am at a loss for the right words.

It was the perfect blend. The author did a fantastic job I think, meshing the educa ...more

**Audio Re-Read**

Listening to this being read to me totally amped up the experience. I mean, my first experience with this book was already pretty much perfection, so yeah, having the re-read be better is well, astounding.

Wow.

I loved Oryn and he broke my heart. I would have liked to know what happened to him when he was a child (not all of the sordid horrible details) & that the person(s) got what they deserved. How at 16 he got to live on his own and who/how did he get to where he was. It would have appeared that someone would have taken care of him until he became an adult, other than his therapist. I also would have liked Vaughn maybe discussing how to deal with being in a relationship with Oryn, even though he di ...more
