A Lover's Lament by K.L. Grayson & BT Urruela- Release Day with Excerpt, Review & Giveaway10/6/2015 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Five Star Review by Ashley
I have been toiling over what to say in this review and I'm still at a loss. My head, my heart, my eyeballs still haven't recovered from what A Lover's Lament put me through. KL Grayson and BT Urruela blew this out of the water. Their writing flowed seamlessly and constantly kept me on my toes. To say I loved this book just isn't enough to convey everything that it encompasses. The emotions started on the first page and intensified and changed throughout. BUT through all of the heartbreak and pain there was hope, forgiveness and love.
I loved the dual POV. Getting to hear both of the main characters voices really helped me to connect with them. I think it was vital here since for most of the book, they spend their time apart. Katie, my heart broke for her. With her. I felt her loss, I felt her anger, her guilt, her pain and her numbness. I loved that she was given and outlet and through it she found a piece of herself that had been missing for years. She found her voice, her heart, her hope. She found Devin. Devin, oh Devin. I loved this man, LOVED him. His integrity, his loyalty, his dedication, his mind, his humor and his perspective. How he was stunned stupid by Katie's letter, how he gave her the gentle nudge she needed to move toward the path of forgiveness, of healing. His words had the power to change her life and he didn't take that lightly. He made her think made him feel. And with that feeling came the fear. He knew what he was up against in a war zone but once Katie came writing her way back into his life he had one more thing to fight for. The trials Katie and Devin have both been through are enough to bring anyone to their knees but somehow they found a way to keep fighting. I really enjoyed the progression of their relationship. From strangers with baggage to friends seeking forgiveness to lovers finding happiness. There is no way around it, Devin and Katie's journey there was hard work and their joy was so much fuller because of it. WOW! There was more than one heart pounding moment that left me wide eyed. I felt like had been slapped across the face, kicked in the gut and left on the ground trying to catch my breath. I was there living in the unknown right along with Katie. Feeling her desperation and Devin's at needing some sort of connection to what was going on. The pain was real, the helplessness was real. But that ending, filled my heart to overflowing. Urruela and Grayson's words moved me in a profound way. Thank you for making it raw, for giving their love the justice it deserved. There really are no words, honestly, no words to describe the love I have for A Lover's Lament. Beautiful, heartbreaking, soul searing, powerful, emotional, all consuming. Just read it you won't be disappointed (and have your tissues at the ready).
