Mayluna by Kelley McNeilMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Holy hell! This book was brilliant! I loved the way that we got the perspective of both Evie and Carter and how their story unfolded! Evie told the story to her children and I could feel the connection and the passion between her and Carter and what they meant to one another. It was fun to be in the rock and roll world and seeing her live in the moment, fall in love and be consumed by Carter.
Carter was quite the reserved character to begin with but opened up to Evie so easily. She respected their boundaries and would document things but had no intention on sharing more than he wanted her too. Their connection was immediate and I knew these two were magic together.
This story sure threw me for a loop and I applaud the way Kelley McNeil wove this story. Amanda Leigh Cobb and Kevin Kemp perfected the narration and kept me hooked even as I ugly cried!! I loved this one and was definitely suffering a book hangover by the end!!
