Falling apart. Barely breathing. How can I go on without you?
Karly Erikson’s fairy tale ending comes to an abrupt halt as she slowly adjusts to life without being in the arms of the man she loves.
Nicholas Hayes makes a decision, which changes his entire life. Living with the decision he’s made, every day is a struggle. His heart only knows one love-Karly Erikson.
When Karly returns to Wilmington, the choices she makes will put what’s left of her heart on the line. Is she ready to fight for what's truly hers?
Do you know that feeling when a knife is in your heart, twisting and turning? Do you know what it’s like to have a car run you over a million times? That’s how I’m feeling. Rage builds in me and, instead of screaming and yelling, I sit in front of Larry, numb and frozen.
“I can’t do this, Larry. I’m fucking human, you know? I have feelings!”
He brings me into his arms and tries to calm me down. “I know and that’s what I told him.”
I can’t give Nicholas what he needs, even though it’s what I truly want. I refuse to break up his marriage and be the one that he uses to escape from Jamie. If something is up and he’s doing this because she’s manipulating him, then that’s a different story and I’ll beg him to leave her. I don’t know the whole story and I’m not sure if I even will get the story. A little voice in my head keeps screaming at me to fight for the man I love. But I don’t know if that’s the right answer.
“I’m gonna go lie down. Thanks for the coffee,” I mutter.
Back in my room, in my safety area, I place the steaming cup of coffee on my nightstand and lie down, facing the balcony.
Tearing away from the sun rising, I force my mind back to sleep. It’s been the longest few nights without Nicholas. I don’t know where to go or what to do. I can’t forget him. Every time I close my eyes, I see his eyes, his smile; I see everything. My chest fills with ache. Sitting here crying over him while everyone else is living kills me. The fight in me is slowly going away. Unable to stand the silence I open my music app on my phone and play a song I haven’t heard in a few weeks - our song. It plays over and over again so I can remember our dance and how I felt when he was holding me. Everything feels heavy and miserable. I scream into my pillow and pray that I can be taken away. I don’t care if we weren't together for a long time. When it comes to love, there’s no measurement in time. It’s how love makes you feel and it made me feel whole. I’d give anything to feel that way again.
First of all if you haven't read Vision of Love you are missing out on the start of an amazing story. So purchase it from your retailer of choice and prepare for Nicholas and Karly.
Okay on to the review
To say I was anxiously anticipating the release of Vision of Destiny is an understatement and a half.
At the end of Vision of Love S. Moose completely ripped my heart out and left me with some questions... lots of questions. My heart felt broken for days after I finished Vision of Love.
Vision of Destiny picks up right where Vision of Love leaves off. Nicholas just chose his ex-wife Jamie over Karly and we have absolutely no idea why. Needless to say Karly is devastated, betrayed and completely broken hearted. She saw a forever with Nicholas and his daughter Emma and it was ripped away in the blink of an eye.
When Nicholas chose Jamie over Karly I was screaming and crying. I knew Jamie had to have something over Nicholas to make him hurt Karly the way he did, and boy what a reason it was. I couldn't help but love Nicholas even more for the reason why he did it.
So, while he, Jamie and Emma are living the life Karly saw herself living she does what anyone would do... she moves on with a man named Jensen. Jensen is sweet and he cares about Karly.
Nicholas and Karly continue to be drawn to each other and Nicholas slowly starts to share details with Karly. But the road back to their happily ever after won't be easy. Nicholas is hiding something and something big, but he is not the only one with a secret. Jamie has some too and when the secrets come out everything becomes clear.
To say this story wasn't full of twists, turns, and jaw dropping moments would be a complete lie. S. Moose takes us on a journey that is for sure! The emotion spills from the page. You feel the pain and heartache that both Nicholas and Karly are feeling. You feel hate, yes I said it hate for Jamie. She is a vindictive biatch read the book you will see why. I cried so much. My heart got ripped out of my chest multiple times but in the end S. Moose put it back it, closed up my wound and slapped a band-aid over it.
