I had the
honor of receiving this book as an ARC by the author.
Down to
you was an
extremely easy read, I finished it within a few short hours. It is such a sweet
story about the struggles of marriage and divorce. How true love will overcome
all.
Holly and Brant
had a great marriage. Children, love, family and friends, who could ask for
more. Three years ago, Brant was asked to travel for work. Reluctant to leave
Holly, who was pregnant at the time, she finally convinced him to go, that she
could handle it. Only, soon after Brant left, Holly suffered a miscarriage and
severe hemorrhaging, resulting in emergency surgery.
The events
that unfolded after the miscarriage was straining their perfect marriage, as
anyone could image as much. Until one day Brant just didn’t come home… Scared,
heartbroken, and alone, Holly was beyond upset when Brant walked through the
door a week later asking to explain. Turning him away, she decided she could
not trust him and made the decision to split.
We are then
brought three year later, a few days before Christmas. Brant is still
completely broken, wanting desperately to win Holly back. Unable to move on, he
begins to secretly make plans with their friends to win her back.
Showing up
on her door step, a nervous wreck, the night before Christmas Eve, was the best
thing that could have ever happened between them. Through the rest of the book,
Brant does everything in his power to show Holly, that his love is still there,
stronger than ever. Proposing to her again, and planning their New Years Eve
wedding was more than she could have ever dreamed possible.
Down to
You was a great
story about how sometimes Happy Endings can happen, and how love will prevail
all. This was my first Alyson Kline story and I am I am thrilled to have been
able to read it. I feel a sequel coming on… maybe?
