An amazing emotional read. I had a very difficult time putting it down. I loved every second of this story and highly recommend it.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers in exchange for an honest review.
After losing my high school sweetheart in a horrible car accident hours after he proposed to me—and months after losing my father—I felt like I had lost my chance at a happily ever after.
Until I met Maison Keller.
Tall and handsome, he would’ve made any girl swoon. Love with him didn’t quite feel the same, but after losing my first love, I knew that things could never truly be the same as before.
My life with Maison was great. At least, that was what I thought until he starts to change, and my life comes crashing down around me once again.
By the time I meet Kai, I’ve given up on love. Losing everyone you love has irreparable effects on you, and I want nothing to do with him. It doesn’t help that my past is catching up with me, fast.
They say true love only finds you once, but Kai wants me to believe that the third time’s the charm.
Talk about an emotional read! Just WoW! Beautifully written and heartfelt! Their journey wasn’t an easy, but so worth it!
The rollercoaster of emotions in this book will have you feel everything. Heartbreaking with some twists you don’t see coming and piecing together Callie’s heart and life leaves you at peace when this is over. The narration was fantastic! So energetic that she pulled even more emotions out of you.
I’m reviewing the audio edition. Let me start by saying this is the first story I’ve listened to by this author. Next, I’ve read/listened and reviewed a lot of books but I’m not sure I can do justice to this one. There is so much to this story. Unbelievably emotional. Twists almost constantly.
Callie and Drayton appear to be the perfect couple. Then circumstance causes them apart. Callie doesn’t see her life without Drayton but knows she must move on. She runs across Maison who appears to be not only extremely hot but also caring and seems to be her best friend. Well that also has a almost unbelievable major issues that cause trouble with them. While she is trying to resolve her relationship with Maison she meets Kai. There is an instant attraction between Callie and Kai. Again there are some major twists that seamlessly fit right into the story and kept my emotions at a high level.
Then the author makes what should be an nicely answered ending but at the last minute throws in a little tease to get me to read/listen to the next book which I can’t wait to get to. The only part I can criticize is I didn’t feel the narrator was right for this story. She is good but her voice is in my opinion more for a YA type story. At times I had a hard time visualizing Callie as the older, out of high school woman.
I absolutely loved this book! Whispers In The Wind took me on an emotional roller coaster ride that I didn’t want to end. This is the second book I’ve read by S.M. Stryker and she made me do the one thing I hate to do, ugly cry. Callie’s journey captivated me, broke my heart and made me break out the Kleenex. I don’t want to give away anything because you need to read this book to fully understand how great the story and the writing is. This author pulled me into the story and had me feeling so many emotions. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.
OMG another amazing book by this incredible author. Make sure you have your tissues ready as you will need them. This story takes you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions and you wonder how someone who has gone through so much can still keep going. I definitely recommend you read this book as it is so well written even on difficult subject’s and situations.
I Voluntarily Reviewed an ARC Copy Of This Book.
I receive a free copy of this book from Voracious Readers Only, in exchange for a fair and honest review. Wow, I have never read a book by this author before but i found this one to be riveting. There were so many twists and turns in the book, and my emotions were all over the board, which is what i look for in a book. I rarely give 5stars because although most books are a good book, or really good book it takes that special one that can pull out my emotions to earn that 5star. This was one of those books. I am hoping there is a continuation of this storyline. I would definitely recommend this book to others.
Great story. A tear-jerker – be sure to have LOTS of tissues on hand but still hopeful. Really enjoyed it!
I received a free Advance Review Copy of this book and this is my voluntary review.
This was a good read. There were parts that were really slow and dragged on too long. The twist with Maison was mind blowing. I definitely want to see where that goes.
