Enjoyed reading a story wothout already knowing the story and what will happen. Plot is unusual.
Wow! Write Me Home by Crystal Walton was simply beautiful!! I loved everything about it, both Ethan DeLucas and Cassidy McAdams, as well as the forgiveness theme throughout the story (granting it to others, and accepting it for yourself). I loved how real all the characters felt, and I think a big part had to do with the awesome job the narrator did in bringing every character to life, as well as conveying every nuance of emotion the characters were feeling. A great job, a completely recommended book and audio, and I can’t wait to read Ti’s story :)!
Ethan and Cassidy have returned to Catskills for different reasons. Him to help his Nonna and her to fix up the camp her grandfather left her so she can sell it. From the moment their paths crossed, their journey begins.
After tragedy strikes Ethan and his family, he decides to dedicate his life to rescuing and helping anyone and everyone he can. He never imagined his rescuing would bring him back to a place he thought he would never return to. There is just too much history for him and he’s not ready to face it. But when he meets Cass and sparks fly, he wants to see where it will lead. Can she help him to heal? To move on from the past? Or will he allow hurt and anger to rule him?
Cass is a very independent person full of sass. Between her father leaving when she was a child, her mother depending on drugs to function, and her ex-boyfriend using her, she has learned to not trust anyone. She has a hard time letting anyone in, letting them help her and letting them love her. She has built her walls up so high, no one can get past them. But when Ethan comes to her rescue over and over and over again, she has a hard time trying to keep those walls up. Will letting him in be the thing that mends her broken heart and restores her trust in people? Or will it reaffirm the only person that she can depend on to take care of her, is her?
Cass and Ethan’s journey was filled with so many emotions! It is one of self discovery, overcoming the past, learning to trust again and of course love. I found myself rooting for them and would get frustrated when things weren’t going my way. I enjoyed seeing them grow as individuals as well as a couple. They were the perfect match to make the other better.
I enjoyed the story but I have to admit something was missing for me. It felt a bit disjointed at times. The mystery aspect of the story could have been developed a bit more. It felt like an afterthought to me. I did figure out who the “bad guy” was before it was revealed and was a bit disappointed in the outcome. I would have liked to see more with how it was handled.
All in all it was a good story. This is my first book by Crystal Walton and I will definitely be checking more out by her. I am hoping Ti gets her own story. I would love to see what makes her tick and see her get her own HEA.
Love this book about finding forgiveness and freedom and the hope of second chances. I loved both Ethan and Cassidy and enjoyed their journey to finding hope and a home with each other. Ethan’s character was strong yet sweet and I loved how much he cared for Cassidy and wanted to help her and take care of her. Seeing Cassidy learn to trust herself again and open up and finally let Ethan in made the book. This was a novel rich in character growth and change that you could actually see. I definitely recommend reading it!
I really enjoyed this book. Easy to read escapism. Sweet and touching, but not syrupy. Characters were nice people who were just trying their best to figure out their lives, which, let’s face it, we’re all in the midst of doing.
