Title: What Lies Between
Series: Where One Goes #2
Author: BN Toler
Release Date: October 10, 2018
At the core of it, life is a test—an opportunity to prove who we are; what we’re really made of. Short as it was, I’d like to think I lived my life well, that when people remember Ike McDermott, they remember he was a good man. When I look back, I’m proud of who I was.
Leaving behind the woman I loved was the hardest thing I’d ever done, and finding peace with the knowledge she was building a life with my brother after I moved on took a strength I didn’t know I had. But George and Charlotte were still alive. I wasn’t. Together, they forged on, and I was okay with that because I knew, one day, Charlotte and I would be reunited.
One day she would be mine.
All I had to do was wait.
Time works differently in the afterlife. Without any ties to the living, it doesn’t so much as slow, but stop altogether. There is no worrying about what is to come, there is only what is.
I didn’t know if four days, or fifty years had passed when I found Charlotte by our tree in my corner of the other side. All I knew was she was here, and I would never have to let her go. I finally had my reward for the life I’d lived.
But I’d soon learn Fate had other plans, and everything I believed about who I was would be tested once again. Only this time, I wasn’t so sure I could stay strong.
This time, I wasn’t sure I could be a good man.
Danielle's Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Alright then, I’ve had a moment to process What Lies Between. When I finished Where One Goes, I was emotionally spent. Charlotte’s special gift led her to one of the most amazing men I’ve ever read, Ike McDermott. Unfortunately for her though, he was dead. So, no happy ending to be found there... BUT, he also brought her George, his twin brother. Who is equally as perfect in his own right.
What Lies Between brings us back to the love that George and Charlotte share and the life they’ve built together. It’s magical, but it also has its strains like every other relationship has.
So when Char’s gift becomes too troubling and her life is put in jeopardy, George begins to think he can’t save her, that he’s got to let her go. And who’s on the other side just waiting for his time with the love of his life? Ike.
Never did either one of them expect the chance to be together, ever. To say it’s a shock when Char shows up in “heaven” is an understatement. But, Ike won’t waste a second of it, because who knows how long it’ll last, if it’s real at all?
I love these characters so much. I definitely saw growth in all of them and was extremely pleased with the way the story was told. I had all the feelings whilst reading.
Another heartbreakingly perfect story from BN Toler.
