review 1: Book 2 (this book) picked up not long after where The Boys Next Door finished up. Leigh is barely married now to the man she fell in love with (Brian) and is living her dream life being a wife and mother to his son. Very shortly after the wedding, she starts to notice the symptoms--her cancer is back.What a heart tugger!! There were a couple of things that bugged me--if she's gone in for an appointment not long before the wedding, how could the cancer of come back so quickly and be at the stage it's at? I guess it was pretty aggressive. When Leigh and Brian go find her brother on their honeymoon and a family secret was revealed, I was extremely surprised at the way Leigh just brushed it off. I guess I usually put myself in the books and I know there's NO WAY I would have (... moreor could have) brushed something like that off. It's barely mentioned twice and the one sentence explanation satisfied her. I couldn't relate. At all. However, that's not the main gist of the story. The main idea is that Leigh is battling cancer for the second time and she has to rely on Brian now more that ever, even struggling with the thought of losing him. So poignant. I cannot imagine having to deal with something like this, especially in her circumstance. It was tender and raw; real and full of emotion. Nothing was spared. Some favorite parts--when all the boys at church came in and kissed her head; when Noah and Brian were in the same room--haha; when Leigh and the ex-wife met; Andy.Content: marital relations are implied, but all but some kissing are left behind closed doors.
review 2: I will forever look up to Leigh and the type of person she is I will always strive to be just as good Holy cow and Brian is just amazing. And cute little Nathan. The whole book my heart was tearing and pounding and i was crying out of sadness and joy and a desire so big i never thought possible. I. Love. This. Book. less
