How do you put into words the emotions you go through when reading an amazing book? This standalone was one of the best reads this year by far! The emotions you go through while reading will pull at your heartstrings so definitely have your tissue handy! Thank you for such an amazing and heartwarming read!
Started out really well but as it progressed the h started to get whiny. It got better later on but it was hard to get through the middle parts
OMG! I laughed and cried at the same time sometimes. Such a heartfelt story. Definitely read it. She is one pf my favorite authors. Strong men and stronger women.
This is a book which makes you think about what a woman at the top of her game (or anyone else) goes through when CANCER becomes a part of her life. Callie is used to taking care of herself and standing alone. Until she cannot, until the diagnosis of cancer knocks her on her self-reliant butt. It is also about a man who steps forward to help her find her strength and her fight, her anger and so much more. I have now read the book 4 times (the last two within a week of each other). Each reading reveals more rich detail and reminds me of friends and family went through (minus the really hot guy). Bravo, Chelle Bliss.
absolutely loved it!
This was a decent story with good writing and a solid storyline, however, I felt like there was something missing. Details of their lives, especially in the beginning, were lacking. This did not allow me to connect with the characters until too far into the book. The first time I felt real emotion in the story was when she got her first all clear. Although I enjoyed this story, I was left wanting, which is why I only gave three stars.
What a change from Chelle’s norm! I was blown away from the emotional tale that was Bruno and Cal’s story. I felt as if I were going through her treatment with her. And envious because I was wishing for a Bruno of my own! Superbly written. Well done, Chelle, well done.
Callie and Bruno’s relationship was so beautiful to read about. Watching their relationship grow the way that it did and under the circumstances they were going through was amazing. I couldn’t love this book more. I enjoyed this book from the first word to the last. I have read the ebook and listened to the audio version as well. Just an outstanding novel.
I will start by saying I won the arc in a contest and have never read anything by this author. This book will pull at your heart strings and make you feel things. Could possibly hit close to home on some topics and make you feel a little more than others like it did me. I absolutely loved the characters especially the main ones Callie and Bruno they were so well developed and felt real. Bruno’s family is hysterical and like every family should be. I absolutely loved this book! This book was so pure and beautiful. It is the kind of story that stays with you and you want to read again. Fan for life
Enshrine is a book unlike any other. The love story is more real than anything I have read before. There is no unrealistic heist or outlandish plot, no crazy billionaire or bad-ass biker. This story is real. The “bad guy” in this love story is Cancer, and nothing is scarier or more dangerous than that.
Chelle has done something that will touch all readers. Enshrine not only shows the struggles of going through treatments, it shows the strength that is needed to fight and gaining the will to survive. Enshrine is a story of making love grow and last through the hardest thing a person can go through and learning to dream of a future when one does not seem possible. Great job on such an inspirational love story Chelle!
Enshrine is one of those books where it leaves a reader feeling emotional days after. I worry I will never do it justice in a review. What Chelle Bliss has written is an emotionally gripping book that will ensnare everyone’s heart. The story is so profound!
Bruno and Callie’s love story is one of the best ones Chelle has written. These two capture a reader hard and fast. Bruno is mysterious and dangerous while Callie is an open book mess. Luckily she has Bruno to cling to while she gets herself back together after her life changes forever. He is purported to be a dangerous, scary bad guy, but she only sees the Bruno who is tender and caring.
Chelle Bliss’ ability to pull me into her stories shouldn’t surprise me by now but it always amazes me how deeply she makes me feel with her characters. Her attention to details and the character development play a big role for me in being drawn in. The rich details make it easy to visualize each scene and the characters individuality and growth throughout the book make them feel real. I loved this book and I definitely highly recommend it to readers who love a deep romance that will make you fall in love with yet another Chelle Bliss Character.
MUST READ Story by teh end of this semi small 2 person POV story I wanted more and craved so much more of Callie and Bruno that I was shocked to the core when it was over. I couldn’t believe that it was over. I so wish I could talk about everything that happened in this story but I really can’t I don’t want to ruin such an eye opening and heart stopping story for everyone. Just know that the details are out of this world the story line is even better and better then ever before and of course like Chelle’s other stories your left with wanting more and more. So wishing I could rate this story with more then 5 stars, the emotional level this story takes is one that really opens your mind. the journey all the characters embark on is over the top great and wonderful even more to read about and feel like your apart of that truly amazing journey. So worth the read over and over again.
***I received this story for free in exchange for an honest review, see more of my review @ http://jmhoward2007.blogspot.com/2016… ***
I have read all of Chelle’s book and I love them all but Enshrine I have to say is my fav. When we meet Callie she is your typical working woman with an obsession of shoes & purses but gets a phone call that changes her life. Bruno what can I say besides I absolutely love him. You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover and that holds true to Bruno. When Callie needs Bruno more the she wants to admit, he is her strength her voice of reason that encourages her not to give up. They both need each other but never realized it. I love Bruno’s family they were so hilarious. Such an amazing, emotional story that will have me recommending for everyone to read this book.
Exceptional heart felt story.
I loved this story. It was an emotional rollercoaster ride. Bruno is a very complicated man. Callie is a very stubborn woman. Who thinks she doesn’t need anyone. So glad Bruno showed her what she needed. Read this in a day. Could not put this book down. Had to know what happened. This is my favorite Chelle Bliss book so far. A must read.
I have read all of Chelle Bliss’ Men of Inked books & loved them. This book outshines them all!!!! It most definitely deserves more than 5 stars, I wish I could give it 10!!!! This is the best book Chelle Bliss has written!!!!
Enshrine pulls you in from the very beginning & doesn’t let go until the very last word. There are so many twists in this book, so many times that things are not what they seem to be. Callie & Bruno are so perfect for each other. I won’t give any details because I don’t believe in ruining the story for other readers but if you are a fan of Chelle Bliss you don’t want to miss this book. And if you’ve never read one of her books, this is a wonderful place to start!!!!
