Description

I'm not your typical girl. I've been running away from the memories that haunt me for so long that depression has become my only comfort. I was content in the darkness...until Wes Michals offered to be my light.

I didn't know that time wasn't my ally -- that every second that ticked past was one step closer to the end of something that was beginning to mean the end of myself. He tried to warn me. He promised me all he was able to offer--each moment as it came--but it would never be enough.

Sometimes when you think it's the end, it's only the beginning. Wes thought he could save me, but in giving me everything, he ruined me. Because after one kiss, one touch, I couldn't--I wouldn't ever be the same.

And from that moment on, his heartbeat became my own

    I had already become a fan of Rachel van Dyken through her DARK ONES series!!! And when I’d finished it, the RUIN series came up as suggested reading. I didn’t even read the synopsis of the 1st book RUIN!!! I just dove in… HEAD. FIRST. I didn’t care if I was diving into the deep or shallow!!! I’M. SO. GLAD. I. DID!!!!!!!!

    My review title isn’t an exaggeration!!!! RUIN LITERALLY had me laughing so hard I thought I was going to pee my pants just a few pages in!!!!!!!! And, it takes a lot to get me to that point, ESPECIALLY from a book!!!!! Then, before long, I was crying. Not just moist eyes!!! I was crying so hard that reading became Difficult. If not impossible!!!!!! Then… More laughter… More tears… More SOBS… More EMOTIONAL CATHARSIS!!!!!!

    All I can say is…. Do yourself a favor and and read this series!!!! You Will NOT be disappointed!!!!!!!!!!

    p.s. At 63 years young I’m DEFINITELY NOT in the target demographic for this series!!!!! But that does NOT change the fact that I am ABSOLUTELY loving it!! If your heart is open & hopeful, it won’t matter what the age of the characters is!!!!!! TRUE LOVE can blossom and THRIVE at ANY AGE!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Must read!

    For a romance novel, I have to say it was a pretty good book. Obviously, I wouldn’t mind reading something else.
  • Loved it!

    I don’t write review but this needed to be said. DO NOT LET THE COVER PICTURE MISLEAD YOU. ITS A SIGNIFICANTLY DEEPER STORY THAN THE PICTURE PORTRAYS. I have never cried reading a book before. It took a long time to get through this book because I couldn’t stop crying at how amazing all of it was. The story is precious and triggering and told so beautifully. Every detail is incredible.

    This was the most amazing book I’ve ever read. It teaches us about hope and faith,Something that takes a lot of courage. My favorite part was the dedication. To anyone fighting a terminal disease God is always in control and to anyone who lost someone to it...it will get better.💜💜
  • Amazing story
