Life works in mysterious ways.Four years ago I became known as the girl with cancer.
I refuse to cry.
And I refuse to give in.
A relationship with a man is the last thing I’m looking for right now, but one night with Parker changes everything.
He is persistent, and he knows what he wants.
Me.
He doesn’t treat me like I’m fragile.
But he doesn’t know, and I’m not ready to tell him.
What if it changes everything?
Tragedy found me when I was seventeen.
Love found me when I was twenty-one.
My name is Aundrea McCall, and this is my journey.

Tabby's Review
Amanda Maxlyn hit it out of the park. What's Left of Me is a story of fighting for life, love and everything in between. This book was heartbreakingly beautiful. It is so much more than you would ever imagine. It draws you in and embeds itself into your heart. You feel every ounce of emotion that Aundrea feels. You feel her happiness, her pain, her love, her fear. What's Left of Me is an all-consuming, powerful, emotional novel that I believe everyone should read.
This review took me quite a while to write because I am so emotionally invested in these characters, that I did not want to let them go. The story of Aundrea and Parker literally brought me to my knees, no matter how hard Aundrea fought to keep him from getting into her heart she couldn't stop what was meant to be. Parker was pretty much kept in the dark about Aundrea's condition until it could not be hidden anymore, and Aundrea was forced to tell him about her being sick. The pure, raw emotion in this scene was both touching and moving at the same time. I would be lying if I said that I did not ugly cry during this scene. You could feel the emotion drip from the pages, and ooze into your soul.
Amanda ripped my heart out and pieced it back together in the end. She completely devastated me, yet made me feel whole. Yes, I know that may not make sense but that's what happened. What's Left of Me is not your typical, girl meets guy, they fall in love and they live happily ever after, it's not a fluff romance, it's real, it's painful, yet it is beautiful. What's Left of Me is a must read and broke into my top 5 of the year. I hope this isn't the end of Aundrea and Parker's story, because I miss them. Amanda Maxlyn's, What's Left of Me has earned a spot in my favorite books of all-time!
