Crystal Cattabriga

This is the first book in the Broken Road series by Crystal. The story is a heart wrenching story that is very plausible in the world today. This is a very fast paced page turner that will leave you in tears. The story begins with a stunning prologue, then ensues a very entrapping series of events that happen to David and Mariza.

Mariza and David are very close brother and sister who's parents are divorce. Their Dad never remarried and mother did. David is going through some emotional depression, although we don't get a lot of background about what it is. Mariza decides to take David on a vacation to Colorado to try to help him turn his emotional problems around. Through a series of dramatic events that happen leaves David crying "WHY" to god. The ending is a killer. I cried like a baby!!!
I give this book a four star review!… (plus d'informations)
