Bittersweet Always (Gray Springs University, #2) ~ Ella Fields

Toby Hawthorne was an enigma.

One I didn’t factor into my college plans.

I wasn’t looking for love.

I wasn’t not looking for it either.

And in that state of in-between, he found me.

Unaware of the battle he fought everyday, I fell fast.

By the time I found out, it was too late.

Because I wanted everything.

Every broken, lost part of him.

I knew I couldn’t fix him.

I could only love him.

But I should’ve known better than to think that was enough.

Warning: This book contains sensitive subject matter.

I devoured this book is one sitting  - was late to work since I was up All. Night. Long.

the subject matter was so well written and we got both sides which made it so much more engaging!

I don't think I'll be able to express just how much I LOVED this book..

It was about unconditional love.

It was about loving someone so much you put aside your fears and just gave yourself  to them.. heart, mind and soul!

Pipa even knowing first hand how much her life had been affected by Mental Illness decided to take a chance and wear her heart on her sleeve for all that it was worth.. She wanted to love strong for the both of them even if it would never be enough.

And Toby!! oh Toby watching him struggle, deal daily and finally coup with his Mental illness was just incredible. It ultimately had to be his decision. He had to realize and accept what his responsibilities were and take charge . And he did!!

I don't want to go to much into the book other than to say it was a Beautiful story about family, acceptance, unconditional love and friendship when you thought you were in the dark alone but weren't!!

Frayed Silk ~Ella Fields

Our marriage wasn't just in trouble—mere threads were all that held it together.
What was once my perfect happily ever after had dissolved right before my eyes.
I can tell you when it started to happen.
What I can't tell you is why.
And after seven months of watching my husband turn into someone I didn't recognize, I'd given up hope in finding answers.

So I decided to break his heart
... and he did nothing to stop me.


Trigger warning: This book contains cheating and other sensitive subject matter.

I devoured this book

Loved Loved Loved!! Wow did not see that twist coming..

This book does have cheating so if that's an issue for you - do not read.. But in my opinion is what ultimately makes this story so unique and real.

Just WOW!!! the marriage aspect of the book, the families and children involved, the friends we keep by our sides in good and bad times, betrayal, secrets, insecurities, communication.. ALL of that played a role in this story and I devoured every bit of it! I was all over the place with emotions and stayed up late reading cause I had to know how it would end. Marriage isn't always pretty, it isn't always about googly eyes, kissy faces and definitely never perfect .. It's about sacrifices, selflessness, communication and at times forgiveness. 

Ella Fields swept us through Leo and Lia's life - the good and the bad and she did it wonderfully!!
