“You might not see me anymore, my dear Marigold, but I know—I swear—you’ll still feel me.”
When it’s time, I’ll meet you in a field of marigolds. Just like the one you were named after.”
Cade Jennings was always there for me when I needed him—until he wasn’t.
Sometimes when you’re grieving you don’t want to be told things will get better. You just want to feel the pain without people making false promises. With death nothing gets better. They’re still gone. Things just get more tolerable to deal with.
“What a terrible way to talk about someone you loved with every fiber of your being. You never want to talk about someone you love in the past tense.”
Heartbroken and devastated, I wrote a book heavily inspired by Cade and me. It was cathartic to funnel all of my feelings into a love story that I could actually control. I never could’ve expected thousands and thousands of people to read it around the world.
I could pour myself into the book because it was my hurt and heartbreak in those pages. It was my anguish. It was my story.
