Cora Whitley has learned the hard way that there are some
choices you can’t escape, you merely survive. And she is, surviving that is.
She’s living, breathing, eating, sleeping, working, all of the things you do
when all you’re trying to do is get from one day to the next without truly
remembering who you were.
Jake Ferrari recognizes Cora the minute he sees her. Maybe
it’s because somehow he knows she’s as broken as he is, or maybe it’s because
when he looks at her he sees that the life he thought was over when his elbow
blew out and his pitching career came to a halt can now be something different.
Something better with her.
But nothing comes for free, not even love. Follow Cora and
Jake as they piece together their lives and deal with the consequences of
falling in love with the one person they know they can’t have.
Includes mature content.
This is the second book in the BEYOND THE HORIZON series. It
is a standalone that follows another character, set four years later. The first
book in the series, BEYOND THE HORIZON, can be found at Amazon.com for 0.99 or
FREE for prime and KU members.
Note: I have gotten the e-ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange of my point of view.
A light read yet dealing with some heavy life issues like alcoholism and dementia. I honestly felt the pain and suffering of both especially Cora. It was well written, descriptive but the fillers were a little dragging at times. It's written from both Cora and Jake's point of views, alternatively, hence the more explorable views and understanding of what they had gone through. A recommended read for some heart-wrenching soul.
My summarize thought:

My summarize thought:
A story of 2 broken souls who found comfort in each other,
trust and eventually love. Both grew and bloomed together, admitting and
confronting their flaws and fears, being strong for each other. Written well, a
good and inspiring book. Just find the fillers a little dragging at times.
My rating: 3/5
