MY REVIEW:

Absolute Love (Absolute Series #1)
Overall Rating **** Stars

                Received a copy for the blog tour! Loved this book. Phoebe had everything she ever wanted a beautiful family, until a death rocked her world. She is growing into something that she doesn’t even recognize. The family is slipping away. Will she end up letting this death ruin the rest of her family? This book will take you on so many emotions. I love her husband Justin. He will not give up on his wife. I really think this book is a must read, you won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait for the next book. This is the first book I have read from this author and I LOVE her!!!
Excerpt
My mind has become consumed with anger, bitterness and resentment.  With my mother gone, pieces of my past have been lost forever.  I had desperately tried to respect my mother’s wishes and not ask about my father.  But deep inside, not knowing the truth left me feeling empty and incomplete – as if a part of me were locked away, just beyond my grasp.  I'd always assumed that my mother would eventually tell me the truth – when she was ready.  But now that she is gone, I don’t know how to cope with the fact that I will never truly understand who I am.
Justin doesn’t understand. I don’t think he ever really understood why it was so important for me to get answers. I should have known better than to try to talk to him about what I was feeling.  I wish I could rid myself of these terrible thoughts and haunting dreams. But I can’t and I'm spiraling out of control.  I feel myself slipping away from reality and from those around me.  I'm keeping everyone at a distance.  I'm terrified to let anyone see the person I’ve become.  But in doing so, I'm alienating every person who was ever close to me and feel more alone than ever.
