11.22.2017 - The Wake Up
Many thanks to NetGalley, Lake Union Publishing and Catherine Ryan Hyde for the opportunity to read her latest book.
Like everything she writes, this book is filled with such insight, hope and emotion. This book finds Aiden, a cattle rancher, going through the motions of his life. He is emotionally empty - just doesn't feel anything. Then one day he "wakes up." He starts actually feeling what others feel - when one of his animals gets hurt, he feels it physically. This wake up changes his life - he can't hunt or ranch the way he's always done. Then he meets Gwen, a single mother of two, and falls in love. Her son, Milo, was abused by his father and bears the brunt of that by acting out. The forging of their relationship is wonderful - we can all learn from the lessons on this book.
Highly recommended!
