review 1: 3 1/2 starsI enjoyed this story, and I'm sure that in the same situation, I'd have been as insecure and paranoid with the age difference, but sometimes I wanted to reach into the pages and give Jane a good shake. Why is it that people always want to make a relationship choice for someone else because they think it's what's best for the other person? Like the other person doesn't get a say? Drives me nuts.Anyway. For any of my friends who are contemplating this book, there is a lot of sex. If it bothers you, I'd choose a different title.
review 2: this book was very engaging and I couldn't stop listening to it. The narrator did an excellent job convey the tone and emotion of this book. I will list my issues, but I want to be clear that I really liked the bo
... moreok, the story, the flow and the characters. It was pretty well written but it just felt a little incomplete, that's all.Jane McKinney decided to piece together the last year of her daughter Melody's life before Melody died. She tried to connect with any of Melody's friends and she ran into a young guitar player who seemed to have a connection to Melody.Jane invited the young Caleb Cummings to her home in hopes of getting Caleb to tell Jane all he could share about his time with Melody. She offers Caleb a job as her gardener so Caleb could feel like he was earning his keep.Jane quickly found herself attracted to Caleb, who was 15 years her junior at 25 years old. Plus, with Caleb's connection to Melody, it just didn't seem like a good idea for Jane and Caleb to become involved. But soon, they can't help themselves as their attraction grows everyday.Two people who had been in a lot of pain, found comfort in each other, and they had to decide if this was something to balm their current hurts or if they had something that was lasting? I really liked this book but I always felt a little something was missing. First of all, I kept waiting for more information on Melody AND the family. I realize this book was about Jane's journey, but Melody was a huge part of this walk and I would have liked more background information on Melody's illness, Jane's parents and John. There was so much animosity there and it was just glossed over by the author. Also, the perfection of a 25 yr old homeless boy was a tad too unbelievable. Don't get me wrong. I loved Caleb. But he kept the place nice, he cooked, he was sweet and always had the most supportive words...yea, the only thing he was lacking was a halo.I also wanted a little more with Grace and Bob. Especially since Grace preached the no-secret thing, I just felt that the author should have delved into that friendship a little more.With all that said, I can't wait to see the next phase of Jane's journey as she starts anew. less
