“You don’t know fear until you’ve traipsed through darkness. You don’t know desolation until you've been tossed to the wolves. You don’t know pain until you’re shown just how disposable you are".
FUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!!!!! Yea that word sums up everything that I’m feeling at this very moment. What did I get myself into? What is this pain that I’m feeling in the middle of my chest?! I’m praying that it’s heartburn right now and eventually, it’s going to go away because I do NOT like this feeling! This story was the ultimate definition of bittersweet and let me tell you, both sides will do you in. You think you’re ready for how this is going to end but in truth, you’re not.
Journalist Meadow Graham has been granted an exclusive interview death row inmate Vincent Mercier. Seven years ago, not only was her entire world turned upside down with the murder of her sister, Meadow now has to come face to face with the man who took her life. For the next seventy two hours, truth, lies and betrayal will become the forefront of the untold story of a heartbreaking fairytale in the making.
Be careful what you wish for: that’s a famous saying isn’t It?
“Most women want to believe they can change a man, that there is some magic inside them, some trait, that will make him alter his ways. But people don’t change, not unless they want to.”
Vincent Mercier has never claimed to be a good man. He’s done things for his benefit alone, manipulated women for his own pleasure, and he’s never lost one ounce of sleep from it. Money, power, sexual desire, has always been in the palm of his hand and nothing could make his life more better than to have the one thing that’s unattainable in an elusive plan. But sometimes, life has a way of throwing you the ultimate curveball and when you least expect it, the unthinkable happens.
I really don’t know how to describe what I was feeling throughout this book. This author's writing is simple impeccable and I loved that she took her time with the pacing of the story because it was necessary. We needed to feel every emotion that these characters were going through in the moment slowly and forcefully and this story did that.
I will admit that I guessed a few important bombshells so I didn’t have that element of surprise like most of my blogger friends while reading this one but the last ten percent of this book? BROKE ME!!!! Omg I don’t think my heart will be okay for a long time to come. This sorrow that I’m feeling is certainly bittersweet but I would do it all over again. I would wish for this story all over again.
