Come Back Tomorrow by Amy Argent - Review

 


Come Back Tomorrow
(Embrace Tomorrow #1)
by
Amy Argent


If you loved "Me Before You" and "The Fault in Our Stars", then Come Back Tomorrow is your next angsty romance must-read.

William Everson, Jr. is young, he's dying of terminal cancer, and he's all alone. I meet him through my mission to befriend terminal cancer patients with no visitors, but it takes me much longer to meet "Will" and to learn anything about his family, his friends, and why he has a DNR order in place.

"Can I come back tomorrow?"

That's always my question at the end of our visits.

When it becomes his question—“Will you come back tomorrow?”—it changes both of us forever. Will’s given up on life; I won’t let him go without a fight. But is what we share enough to make Will rethink any of his choices . . . before it’s too late?

Come Back Tomorrow follows the heart-wrenching journey through illness to the very edge of life and to the critical decision that must be made: accept your fate or fight with everything you have.

Come Back Tomorrow is the first book of the Embrace Tomorrow Duet.



My Review

If love could cure cancer it would be fabulous.

This book starts with pysch Tori befriending a terminal patient - so you know it's not gonna be fun and frolics. There's a lot of illness, pain and so many emotions for the characters, let alone us the readers!

Will is the patient, a handsome young man with green eyes, a kind personality when he lets you in, he's very stubborn too.

Tori is a strong woman, to befriend someone who is dying must be so hard and I know a few people who do it for real through volunteering at the hospital myself.

It's not all pain and sickness, the developing friendship was beautiful.

I didn't know how this would end and I'm relieved a touch but scared of what awaits in part 2 of this duet.

Time Stamps by K.L. Kreig is now live!


This book is a 5+ star read. It's a must-read. It will stay with you and make you realise what's important in life. You will need a whole box of tissues, and be prepared for a major book hangover! - TVRBB

Time Stamps by K.L. Kreig is now live!
Available on all platforms
Amazon UK -

Time stamps.

Our life is marked by them. Significant milestones to the seemingly mundane. All of them have a place. A purpose. Moments and chapters stacking on each other, building scars and memories. Creating stories that are only ours to tell.

But those stamps are finite, pre-determined. And eventually our allotment runs out.

This is our story. Our collection of time stamps. The culmination of our love, our struggles, our redemption and our heartbreak. This story isn’t always easy, but it is real. A genuine account of utter devotion, where every page is crammed with pure emotion and truth and the gift of loving another person more than yourself. Share with us in our dreams, our laughter. Cry with us in our sorrows, our pain.

Take this journey through our time stamps with Laurel and I, and I will meet you at the end.

~ Roth Warren Keswick


My Review

Some books can be demolished in one sitting, but some need to be cherished and have time taken to absorb the love, this is one of them.

Roth and Laurel have such an easy love, they are Ying and Yang and perfect together.

Laurel is a quirky lady introduced to Roth by a friend, a friend you'd be thankful to forever. Roth made me swoon many times.

This book destroyed me, I sobbed.... It's beyond heartbreaking but amidst all the pain there is love, devotion, and adventure and it's beautiful.

To be honest I was doing well just the odd tear and glassy-eyed in parts but then a couple of simple lines threw me over the waterfall. Then I pulled myself together and continued Roth and Laurels time stamped journey, only to hear 'I want to see my mother'.... Floodgates opened again. To be honest they didn't stop for a while....

This book has stayed with me for days, reading it felt like I was watching a film, omg god this would make an amazing film.

This book is beautiful, painful, heartbreaking, raw, real, and makes you realise what's important.

If you like a deep and moving story, I highly recommend it to you. Make sure you have tissues ready you will need them.

5 + stars

MY REVIEW

Looking for a Book Hangover? Look no further pick up The Last Kiss. I couldn't move on to a new book so re-read this!

A beautiful, emotional, and tragic love story.

My heart is in recovery after reading this book. It broke me, made me smile, and was definitely heartwarming.

Jules is amazing and so strong, I also loved Liv the sister and the whirlwind of a niece that reminded me of my daughter. Henri, oui the man of the book, swoon-worthy yes, sexy, business owner, the list could go on!

The chemistry between Henri and Jules is literally bouncing off the pages, I was totally pulled in, lapping up every moment they shared

There were many times I had to dry my eyes before continuing, but I loved this heartbreaking romance.

This is a book that will take you on a fulfilling emotional journey.

Five heartbreaking perfect stars


EXCERPTS


#1

I can feel what living is. It’s in one moment to the next. One breath that leads to another. One touch, one sigh, one glance, creating a perfect moment that is imprinted forever.
All I want is his kiss. It’s a burn, a desire, a question that needs to be met with an answer
Hands clutch my elbows, but instead of screaming or fending for my life with my handbag as a weapon, I’m shuddering, breathing out a long held bated breath.
Breathing the same air as… as…
“Henri CarrĂ©.” His lips crush into mine and I moan a deep and toe curling sigh.
Fate, you wily beast I thought you’d let me down.
It hits me how much I’ve been craving this moment, desperately waiting without wanting to give meaning to the ache festering under my skin. The grey of my world bursts into colour with the press of his lips.
Henri. The perfect name.

#2

“If I asked you to stay, would you?” He yawns and kisses my ear.
“With all my heart,” I say, because I’m pretty sure when I go home I’ll be leaving what little is left of it here with him. I can’t fight the tears, and I know he knows I’m crying, but he doesn’t say anything, just holding me tight as the lie I’ve created between us takes its hold.
Truth is, I just don’t have a heart to give.


COMING SOON

#2 The Ex-Apocalypse – Releasing September 16

Review - Letters to Lincoln by Tracie Podger - Five Stars



Letters to Lincoln
by 

What do you do when your husband dies unexpectedly?
You write him a letter, of course.

What do you do when someone answers that letter?

Dani was mid-thirties when she found herself alone and without her soulmate.
Coming to terms with her loss took all her strength and her voice.

If Dani thought she’d experienced the worst life could throw at her, she was wrong.

Lies, deceit, confusion surround her.
A stranger, a builder, and a priest comfort her.

Letters to Lincoln is a contemporary romance about overcoming loss, finding the strength to rebuild a life, and learning to forgive.

For readers over the age of 18.




REVIEW

I stayed up late last night to finish this book and how I loved it. I won't lie, its an emotional read, just read the book description! My heart broke for Dani, her grief came through the pages and made me feel so much.

Dani has lost her hubby and daughter in one swoop, her life is over in one way. She needs an outlet, she can't speak as she has lost her voice through the shock of her loss, so she writes a letter to Trey - her hubby and puts in a bottle on the beach. She is shocked to receive a response.

The letters are not from Trey, they're from someone who understands her pain and wants to help - they are touching and heartbreaking, but have an uplifting edge to them too. Sometimes we need someone who is not family to open up to and that is true for Dani and her letters help her so much.

You can think well how can there be romance in a book about heartbreak, but oh there is, it creeps up on you and it's wonderful and heartwarming.

This book takes you through so much. Dani's journey is not an easy one and some of the twists left me with my mouth gaping, but I loved this book.

A must-read for fans of an emotional read.

Five Touching stars
