Jenny's Review
Five days later and I’m still reeling from What’s Left of Me by
Amanda Maxlyn. I really don’t know how to put into words how amazing this book
is. I can’t even pick up another book because this story is permanently entwined
with my soul. But damn it, I will try to write this review, I hope it doesn’t
sound like a jumble mess. Here I go...
Since the age of 17, Aundrea have been fighting cancer, not once
but twice. She wants to live a normal life without feeling pity from anyone or
feeling helpless. In an attempt to feel
normal she goes out with to a bar with a couple of friends. While at the bar,
she meets Parker…
.
Parker and Aundrea meets at a bar and have a very hot one night
stand, or at least that what Aundrea believed it would be. When her
brother-in-law invites the new veterinarian and partner to their house, she is
shocked to find out that it is Parker and he is looking more gorgeous then she
remembers. She initially tells him that it was a one-time deal and nothing will
happen between them again but Parker has other plans and throughout the story
Parker shows that he is not given up on Aundrea while she tries to get her
cancer a secret from him.
Parker is fantastic and is probably one of my top favorite book
boyfriends. He is determined that be with Aundrea despite her reluctance. He is
persistent but in the most subtle way. He is not overbearing. He is charming
and patient but also knows that what he feels for Aundrea is real.
The strength that Aundrea have while dealing with cancer is
unbelievable. Most people would have given up and not be able to deal with the
pain of not only cancer but the pain that it hold on the people that are in
your life, who I may add is an amazing support system to her. Aundrea story is
about survival and her fight against the odd but also trying to be her true
self with Parker and not having her cancer get in the way of their blossoming
relationship.
The epilogue made me scream at 1am in the morning 3
times. That alone was emotional and left me wondering what is next for Aundrea
and Parker. I can’t wait to read the next book.
