I need you, Ava.

I am desperate. For you. For a touch. For a kiss. For the scrape of your hand down my stomach. For the slide of your lips across my hipbone. The sweep of your thigh against mine in the dulcet, drowning darkness. For the warm huff of your breath on my skin and the wet suck of your mouth around me and the building pressure of need reaching release...I am mad with need.

Wild with it.

I cannot have you. I have lost you, as I have lost myself.

And so I go in search. Of myself, and thus the man who might return to you, and take you in his arms.

I loathe each of the thousands of miles between us, but I cannot wish them away, for I hope at the end of my journey I shall find you. Or rather, find myself, and thus…you. Myself, and thus us. 

I am taking the long way home, Ava.

Christian,

I’m losing my mind, and I don’t know how to stop it. I shouldn’t be writing to you, but I am. I’m friendless, loveless, and lifeless. You’re out there somewhere, and still you’re all I really have. I hate my reliance and dependence on you, emotionally and otherwise, and that reliance is something I’m coming to recognize. I hate that I can’t hate you as much as I want to. I hate that I still love you so much.

I hate that there’s no clear solution to our conundrum. Even if we could forgive each other, what then?

I hate you, Christian. I really do.

But most of all, I don’t.

It’s complicated.

Complicatedly (still) yours,

Ava

Oh Jasinda… Jasinda…  you gutted me with this beauty of a book! I mean, go check out that blurb and you know you’re in for it! I still wasn’t prepared for the heartache. It could be because normally the books I have read of the lovely Mrs. Jasinda Wilder have been the Badd Brothers… not exactly a heart-wrenching read like The Long Way Home. You nailed it lady… its outta here! I’ve finished this book days ago, and still, every time I think back my heart aches a bit more. It has stuck with me.

Only Jasinda Wilder can give us a book made up of mostly letters and journal entries and give is such a level of perfection. This is such a unique perspective on really scattered thoughts and experiences making up a stormy story unlike anything I have ever read. We get all three different perspectives, that in itself is extremely different itself to get all sides of the story. We go between Ava’s thoughts, Christian's thoughts, to a third person. These three kept me wrapped up in heartache and pain as well as their inner guilt.

My one, teensy meensy complaint is that I wish I had more of an ending. We go through such an emotional story that I felt as if it stopped a little more abruptly than I would have expected or hoped. I am extremely happy to see this is just the first book, that we will get more from this story… these people. I just have a few unanswered questions that I hope we get too.

Of course, Jasina’s writing is just as perfect as it always is. She creates these stories that you can’t help but feel. Her words are perfect imagery. This book is unlike any other book you will find out there. It will break your heart in a million pieces; it will stick with you and make you think on your life on your relations.

I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I will leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.
