I chose this book to be the book. The perfect book that would make the world stop for a few hours and suck me into another universe completely. The perfect book that would make my heart race and stop all at the same time. This book is that book! This book is perfect!
An amazing read! . . . [I] can't wait to continue the emotional journey of Drew and Fable
This book has all the best parts of romance and betrayal. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough
A powerful story that left me raw yet hopeful
Murphy jumps into the world of suspense with a powerful story of friendship, trauma, coping and betrayal. The characters jump off the page into real life and will have readers gasping and feeling every emotion that they go through. Another amazing book to add to Murphy's already stellar library!
Ever since I was introduced to Monica Murphy's writing last year, however, I knew I could trust that she would handle this difficult subject matter with a sensitive touch and dignity. Which makes Never Tear Us Apart my first "I'd give it 6 stars if I could" 5-star rating of 2016. Yes, it's that good, and yes, it's done that well... This book reminds me of why I love to read... It's poetic, addresses difficult themes, and captures the essence of our fragility as humans and the strength love provides
