O M G!!!! Beautiful but so emotional. Finley and Abel met at the wrong but also right time. It was so unexpected and based on Finley’s circumstances it was bad timing. These two immediately clicked and Abel made Finley forget everything that she was going thru, even though he had no idea, and she loved the best night of her life. Abel couldn’t get her out of his mind and Finley was already in love with him but couldn’t let him in because of what she was going thru. When he found her again and found out what she’s going thru he was all in and didn’t leave her side. They enjoyed every minute together which will make you smile and cry all at the same time. The ending was soooooo sad and oh my heart. This was such a beautiful story even though it tugged at my heart towards the end.

Wow, I loved this book! I absolutely loved how Finley and Abel met. Some people will read the book and say they met at the very perfect time and some people will read it and say WHY? They met at the worst time ever! Finley is young and has had a hard road. A hard life. And, she has just been thrown the biggest curveball yet. When she is reeling from that, in walks Abel and in those next 10 hours, something amazing happens.
I can’t say too much more or I will ruin the story for you, but I can say this was a roller coaster of emotions. I laughed, I cried, I wanted to throw things, but in the end… I was happy that I went on this journey. Thank you for another beautiful story Melissa!

This is a review which is going to be difficult to write without spoilers, so I will keep this short! This story is an emotional roller coaster journey from beginning to end. Be warned an abundance of tissues are a requirement! This is a well written story which is raw, gritty, intense, brutal, heartbreaking and powerful read. I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend for all.

I don’t know how to express what I feel about this story, other than to say you don’t wait! Go and grab it right now!! It was well written, it kept me captivated from start to finish, and I felt every emotion that the characters did. My gosh I read this weeks ago and I’m still thinking about it.

Everything that I felt about this book is simply impossible for me to put into words. In fear of spoilers I will try to be short and concise. This book was brutally stunning, heartachingly beautiful, intensely romantic and excruciatingly poignant. Have tissue, chocolate, ice cream and wine on hand because you will need all of the above (in large amounts). This is a book that will totally eviscerate you and simply leave you an emotional wreck. Be prepared. Fortify yourself as much as possibly and make sure you have a recovery plan in place. You will need it. What a book!

Holy this book tore my heart out! What a truly amazingly written story. I don’t think I’ve ever cried this much during a book ever. Not even sure how to post a review, I know none of my words will be good enough at all. Altho this book is incredibly sad, it also reminded me of one thing….. to always live life to the fullest. Abel and Finley we’re the definition of true love. The words in this book will stay with me for a long time.

Dear god, I don’t think my tears have even dried yet while I attempt to write this review. This book gets a full 5 stars from me. When a book can invoke so much emotion, that is a damn good book. Ten Hours is a roller coaster full of emotions. I physically had to stop reading during certain parts of the book because I was crying so hard. I knew it was coming. But, like Abel, I just wasn’t ready.
This was such a sweet, emotional, and gut wrenching read. But in the best way. To be honest, I am not a fan of insta-love stories but for some reason, this one got me. It resonated with me. It pulled me in. It didn’t feel as forced as certain “insta-love” stories do. Ten Hours was crafted beautifully with emotion and development. The story line kept me captivated and wanting more.
Hands down, this was a beautiful story.

Toppen delivers one hell of a gut punch with her new release Ten Hours.
Ten Hours… That is all it takes for a girl and a boy to fall in love. Not just an ordinary love. It’s the kind of love that moves mountains, changes lives and holds true long after it’s gone. Finley and Abel’s romance is like nothing else you’ll read this year. It’s brutally beautiful in the best way. Toppen takes you on an emotional journey filled with hope, chances of forever and an indescribable love between these two. I will forever be moved for just having read this story.
If you are looking for a novel that is much more than just a romance, a novel that will move your heart forever changing it, then make sure you read Ten hours by Melissa Toppen.

Beautifully written story. Ten Hours is a tear jerker. You’ll need a box or twenty of tissues. I was captivated from the beginning till the end. Abel and Finley’s story is an emotional journey. It was worth every second reading. I hope Abel will get a book after Ten Hours.

An accidental meeting brought Abel and Finley together. Ten hours was all they had. In those ten hours, Finley and Abel shared an amazing time together and fall in love. Ten Hours is an incredible, sweet and emotional story. Their chemistry together is beyond great. The first page grabbed me and I couldn’t put it down until the end. Be sure to have plenty of tissues on hand.
