The Ever Trilogy #2
After Forever
Ever,
I don’t know who I am anymore. I’m a castaway. Lost. Drowning. I love you. That’s the only true thing I know, and it’s all I have to hold on to. I love you. I’ll love you forever. Until the day I die, and I’ll love you in whatever world comes after this one. I love you so much, Ever. I miss you. Dear Jesus, I miss you. Come back to me.
For forever, and after forever,
Caden

SPOILERRRSSSSS
God ABSOLUTELY HATE what happened to the characters in this book.. yeah life is unfair but to respond the way they did. I honestly feel sick to my stomach. I could hardly read the rest of the book.. probably won't bother reading the next one. These characters were nothing to me but selfish. Yes they were both struggling to deal with everything that had been handed to them but the fact that "she may not wake up" was no excuse.
Really do not see how the characters will be redeemed in the next one. I am sorry for my harsh comments, but Eden does not deserve a white knight and he does not deserve Ever. Notice my "he".. can not even write or think his name right now.

It's taken me a few days to write this review, mainly because I'm still in shock. If I thought the first book was emotional, it was nothing compared to this one. This book had me all over the place. I'm still not sure exactly how I feel about it. I spent half the time sad and sympathetic, while the other half of the time I was downright furious.
I don't think I can say too much without spoiling this one. I'll just say that the story definitely went in a new direction. It made me question a lot of things and pushed my boundaries.
Grab your tissues and a stress ball. You'll need them this time around. Things are about to get sketchy!

who thought this was a good idea?
truly the most abhorrent book i've ever read.
why? because H cheats on h (while h is in a coma btw) WITH her twin sister because apparently he's so weak and needs a fill-in for his wife.
this is just filled with H and OW sex scenes where it's inferred that they both have great sex (since they're coming so hard all the damn time) and probably have the best sex of their life, H telling us that OW is way more attractive and fit compared to the h and actually wanting HER and not at all pretending she's his wife, H doing things with OW he's never done with h, H not ending things after the first time (even after feeling guilty, and yes, they do it multiple times i lost count after the third sex scene) and not letting the OW go because he needs her to "survive" or some shit. and at the end where H visits his wife and wonders if he even truly loved her and being all depressed and guilty, he kept thinking with his D and end up "making love" to the OW for one last time.
but apparently we can excuse all of this because he was loving h through the OW and H would never love the OW because he loves the h sooo much but he was in so much pain and have no hope that h will survive so that's why he slept with his wife's twin sister, while his WIFE is fighting for her life 🙄.
for real, i have never felt so much anger and disgust in my entire life until i read this book.

3ish stars...
I had such a hard time reading this book. It was so difficult for me to finish. I’m glad I did, but then again... I don’t know how I feel about how it ended. I cried, I drank, I bit off all my fingernails and I’ve come to this conclusion. I need the third book. I need to know how it all turns out. I think that’s the only way I will be able to feel better about this book. Because it seriously stressed me out.
*If you haven’t read Forever & Always, there will be many spoilers in this review for the first book. I have no clue how to write it any other way... It’s going to be hard not spoil anything from this book, but I’ll do my best. You’ve been warned.*
After the accident, Ever and Caden’s story becomes Ever, Caden and Eden’s story. Lets start with Ever.
Ever is still here. Technically speaking. Caden and Eden still see her every day. She’s still the biggest and most important part of her husbands life. Cade is having a lot of trouble coping. Ever is all he has, besides his grandparents who live far away. Caden has lost more than any person should have to lose in a lifetime, and he’s not even 25. He can’t get over all the time he’s losing with Ever. He just has to hope, has to believe she’ll come back to him.
Caden is surviving. Getting by the only way he knows how.
The only person he has that even remotely knows how he feels is Ever’s twin sister, Eden. Ever and Eden are identical twins. The only thing that sets them apart is their hair color and body type. As time goes on, Cade finds it harder and harder to be around Eden. He knows she’s not Ever, no one could ever be Ever, but he’s starting to get a little too comfortable with her. And Eden... Eden wants Cade. Wants to seek comfort in ways she should not.
Recap: I love Ever. I really love Cade. He’s not perfect, but my god did I feel for him. I said it in my earlier review and I’ll say it again. This boy has the WORST luck ever. I’m really anxious to see how his story plays out in book 3. Eden. I think I made my feelings about her fairly clear in the paragraph above.
READERS BEWARE: I know many of you are straying away from this book because of all the talks of cheating... IMO
Jasinda Wilder’s writing is so fabulous, I could read her books all day long. Effortlessly. Most of them I love. This series, I find I love to hate it. Or hate to love it. It’s one of the two. My heart was shredded into pieces. I had endless tears. And as afraid I am to read the third book, I really feel like I need the closure, so you know I’ll be reading it right away!
I apologize for this review. I know I’m rambling, but I just can’t help it. I’m so glad I was able to read/rant this book with a friend. Thank you Kara for reading with me. If any of you are jumping into this series and you need a friend to listen or some support, feel free to message me. Just an FYI for anyone waiting for all 3 books to be out, book 3 release date is February 14th! A great ‘read at your own risk’ series!

After the accident, Ever and Caden’s story becomes Ever, Caden and Eden’s story. Lets start with Ever.
You promised, Ever. you promised you’d never leave me. I know you didn’t want to, you didn’t mean to. But you still did, and I’m back to being numb and floating through life, every day. Except now I don’t even have you, have your letters keep me tied to the earth.
Ever is still here. Technically speaking. Caden and Eden still see her every day. She’s still the biggest and most important part of her husbands life. Cade is having a lot of trouble coping.

He can’t get over all the time he’s losing with Ever. He just has to hope, has to believe she’ll come back to him.
Lost time. You can’t make up for what’s lost. Especially not time. This time that you’re gone, we’ll never get it back. It’s lost. Time with you, lost. Love and life with you, lost.
Caden is surviving. Getting by the only way he knows how.
The only person he has that even remotely knows how he feels is Ever’s twin sister, Eden. Ever and Eden are identical twins. The only thing that sets them apart is their hair color and body type. As time goes on, Cade finds it harder and harder to be around Eden. He knows she’s not Ever, no one could ever be Ever, but he’s starting to get a little too comfortable with her. And Eden... Eden wants Cade. Wants to seek comfort in ways she should not.
“We need each other. Now, in this. We need each other. We’re the only thing we have in life. We’re orphans in a huge, scary world. We’re alone. We’re lost in the darkness together. And we have to stick together- we have to hold on to each other. I can’t face life completely alone, Cade.”I had a lot of trouble with Eden’s character. I did not like her. AT ALL. Yes, I had the hate face on for Eden this entire book. I don’t know what it is about her, but I didn’t, couldn’t sympathize with her in the least. I felt like she was insincere and manipulative throughout the entire book. If the third book is all about her, hmmmm. I’m not sure how I’ll feel about that.
Recap: I love Ever. I really love Cade. He’s not perfect, but my god did I feel for him. I said it in my earlier review and I’ll say it again. This boy has the WORST luck ever.

Turn back now before reading and save yourself the heartache.
& Jasinda it's very obvious that you don't have a sister because that wouldn't have even crossed your mind if you knew that kind of connection.
Just don't waste your time because you'll end up angry, hurt, pissed, and in disgust after reading what happens between characters that claim to love someone even thought it's clear they're only considering their own selfish feelings. And definitely don't feel bad for Eden or Cade, regardless of their self-esteem and depressed bullshit, they're overall full of it.
Sorry if I seem like i'm overreacting but this book definitely goes on the shit list..and honestly I feel cheated for what could have been one of the best romantic trilogies.
Let me add this because i'm having a hard time understanding where people are coming from when they say to try to understand Cade's and Eden's pain and some how make sense of all that happened.

Caden: Shoot on sight!
Eden: Shoot on sight!
Ever: Immediate rescure!

Disgusting story I think one of the most repulsive storyline I have read in a long time! Caden and Eden the sister should be shot if they truly loved Ever they could not have betrayed her in such a nasty way and the sex scenes actually made my stomache churn I honestly cannot think of anyway they can redeem themselves in the next book especially with Eden now being pregnant! Really wish I did not read this book that's how much I hated Caden and Eden! With a husband and sister like that you really can't get a worse betrayal.

This needs to come with a WARNING-BEWARE! emotional and possible nausea.
Why don't you rip my heart out- stomp on it- and try to put it back in. Wilder's books are a hard read for me. More times than not, I am emotional during them. After the tree/lightening scene in Falling, ugly crocodile tears, curled into a fetal position, rocking on the floor-I try to stay clear. But, I read the beautiful letter that Caden left for Ever and thought- a beautiful love story. UM NO. NOT. Gut wrenching, lies, deceit, guilt, anger, confusion, love-eh? Hardest story I read in a long time. My review may be more stars after I read the last book. Based off the story line and not because it was poorly written (because it is not) but just bc I can not stomach stories like these -I can't do more than this.
Spoilers. (I usually do not spoil but I did with this one-Please do NOT read if you hate SPOILERS)

I don't know what to say about this. I loved forever and always. It was a 5 star read for me.I loved Cade and Ever.
i hated the turn this book took. The characters were selfish and after a particular scene i almost dnf'ed but my ocd got in between and i skimmed through 50% of the book. I guess it wasn't for me.
i love Jasinda's writing and i will be reading her other books but i will not be continuing with this series.

Spoilers ahead and a huge rant:
I hated this book and every one in it. Only Ever could save this book and she was only in it at the end. Cade and Eden are fucking assholes. They deserve each other. How??? I mean howwww could you??? Did you not think of what would happen when she woke up? How her heart would be torn in two, her soul shattered? The two most important people in the world to her betrayed her in the worst way imaginable. OMG, WTF!!!!! I can't believe the author did this, why would you ruin the story like this. Don't you know there is no redemption here? Not with a baby on the way. No protection? After Ever lost the baby? Seriously?! Selfish fucking bastards. He doesn't love Ever and the sister is a jealous bitch who seduced her sister's husband. God, I feel so bad for Ever, she gave all her trust and love to Cade, her everything and he cheated on her like Billy, but WORSE because it was with Eden. I hope Ever meets someone new in the last book who loves and cherishes her who doesn't impregnate her whore sister while she is in a coma fighting for her life. There is no HEA in this. How could there be? Please let Ever find someone else, this was the ultimate betrayal, I don't know how she will get over it. I read the sneak peek for the next book and I honestly could give a shit about Eden. I want Ever to find out and tell them all to go fuck themselves and spend the the rest of the book finding new love, maybe with a physical therapist.

DNF
so theres this couple
husband loves wife
wife loves husband
wife gets into an accident
goes into a coma
and the hero faithfully waits for her
she wakes up and they live happily ever after🤍
yeah no, none of that shit happens
what does happen though, is the hero not only cheating on his poor wife but also instead doing it with her twin sister
what a nice guy right i mean he had needs so instead of cheating with just anyone he did it with the one person who looked exactly like his wife
what a sweeatheart🥺🥺
oh it gets better:
so he ends up getting the twin sister PREGNANT but since the sis doesn’t want the kid, the fmc with no spine decides to adopt the product of the cheating of the love of her life
if this isn’t peak romance idk what is🤧🫶🏼
ladies take notes📝
and the cherry on top is that apparently as i read some spoilers, i found that the hero and the twin by the end of the book, felt LOVE for each other🦋🦋🦋
oh and guess what there’s no grovelling, he gets forgiven just like that bc the heroine has an IQ lower than the boiling point of helium🫠
would 100% recommend if you want to go get traumatised!

not safe! disgusted by both hero and heroine's sister!!!
August 10, 2016
I'll be honest, if I had known the direction the second book was going to take, I would not have read the first. After being so madly in love I was so disappointed in Caden. My heart broke for him, I could see how he was feeling but why oh why............Why? And Ever's sister Eden, not much of a sister. How can a third book wrap this up happily?
December 21, 2013
Am I ready for this?
Can you hear that? Its the worst sound in the world. That is the sound of my heart shattered and my soul begging to be reattached to my body. It's the sound of words on paper bring a grown women to her knees. That is the sound of my 9 year old asking me if I'm ok and why am I so sad. That's the sound of my husband asking me
"why are you continuing to read that if all it does it make you cry"
He doesn't understand that you can't just stop reading a book like this. I literally cried from the first page to the very last. It was a mix of painful sobs and silent tears. My nose is dripping, my eyes are read and I feel like I need a bottle of vodka to sooth my heart. I need to dull the pain because it hurts to much.
I will not be able to move on from this book. February is way to far. How do you move on from a book that has consumed you.
When you are reading this book, you can kind of see where it is going to lead. You plead with them and beg them to not do it. But then you realize that it has to happen. It's how the story has to be told. There is no other way for it unfold. Did it hurt. Like a mofo. Did it break my heart even more. Heck yes.
The ending. WHY WHY WHY. I can't breath, I can't think, I can't function. Jasinda Wilder owns me heart and soul and it doesn't seem like it will be changing anytime soon.
Read this book, don't judge it, don't judge the characters, just read it, absorb it, let it be your everything and just fell it. This book is everything it needs to be and so much more.

WARNING: THIS BOOK WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS FOR BOOK #1
Please note: I've now changed my casting for Ever, due to the changes of direction in this story.
Haven't read the first book? Read my spoiler free review of The Ever Trilogy, the full series: http://smittensbookblog.wordpress.com...
See my review for Forever & Always (The Ever Trilogy, #1) here: http://smittensbookblog.wordpress.com...
I don't even know what to say. I don't know where to start. I don't know how I feel... I'm completely confused!!!
You expect me to round this book up with a star rating???
4.5 stars for After Forever.
(Because my moral compass simply won't allow me to give it five stars. However, if book #3 turns out as I want it to, this series will be beyond five stars for me. Does that make any sense at all?)
Oh my goodness. How the hell am I meant to explain the way I'm feeling without giving any spoilers??
So, at the end of the Forever & Always, we're left hanging when Caden and Ever are involved in a car crash on the way home from Ever's father's. Caden has just woken up in hospital and we learn that Ever is still comatose and lost a baby we didn't know she was pregnant with. After Forever picks up right where we left off, with Caden continuing the conversation with the doctor re. Ever's condition.
"She's not dead, but she's not alive."
It's very very difficult for me to explain hardly any of this book without giving things away, but one way for to convey what I went through whilst reading this book is that this story is pure pain. It is heartache and loneliness in the form of words on a page.
I couldn't bear to miss Ever. It was too deep a cut through my heart. Talking to her made me miss her. She was there, breathing, heart beating, but she wasn't there.
It is also the most at war I have ever been with my morals and my conscience whilst reading a book. I still don't know what to make of my feelings, if I'm honest. I don't know whether I'm okay with the direction this book took. I don't know whether I understand, whether I accept it, whether it's okay or whether it's totally wrong. I know, this all sounds very cryptic... but I just can't give you any more information because you need to experience this all for yourself to have any chance of judging these characters fairly.
"I love you. I don't want you to think I don't. I love you more than ever. I love you so much it literally wakes me up with my heart aching for you. And I don't want... what's happening. When I'm not here."
After Forever completely broke my heart. But, the characters hearts were breaking too, so I felt like I was really living this with them. Really feeling their pain and confusion. Usually, this is something I would just point blank refuse to read or entertain... but there is something about these characters and their story that made me need to carry on reading.
There are moments in life when you know, irrevocably, that you've given in, come undone. That you've slipped, lost your balance, and fallen over a cliff's edge, that there's no climbing back up, there's no slowing the fall. You never forget those moments.
However, I couldn't put it down. It hurt. So much. But I couldn't stop reading. I had to know what happened. I had to know how this ended. And I still don't. Obviously we still have a third book to come and I need that like I need oxygen. I can see why this is written as a trilogy, because there really are three very distinct parts to this story. You'll understand what I mean when you read it.
'I don't know if you'll love me when you wake up. If you'll be able to. But even if you don't, I'll love you. Forever, and after forever.'
Let me talk about Caden. Dear God, what a confused, tragic, painful character to read. I loved him, my heart ached for him, I loathed him at times, but I really felt that he was losing control. I really did believe that he had lost himself. Lost his reason to function. Lost the light in his life. Lost his sense of right and wrong. He was simply existing and trying to survive. And now I just don't know what is going to happen for him in the third book. I can't imagine how this is going to turn out okay for him. He's broken my heart, but he has been through so much and he has lost his way. I don't know whether or not I will be able to forgive him in Saving Forever. I hope so.
"Sometimes, maybe... sometimes there's no right or wrong. Sometimes there's just... surviving."
We still get the letters in this book. Caden uses the letters, now, to express the things to Ever that he can not allow himself to speak. He uses the letters to confess his fear, his guilt, his pain. Again, it's heartbreaking.
'For forever, and after forever,
Caden.'
We learn a lot more about Ever's sister, Eden, in this book. She's is like Ever in a lot of ways, but also so very different. She is much more feisty and strong willed. She has some severe self esteem issues which a lot of women will be able to relate to. However, I couldn't bring myself to like Eden. Even in the first book, her selfishness and her resentment of Ever irritated me. It's clear she loves her sister, in her own way, but she's so self-depreciating that she can't see past her own insecurities at times. I think we will be getting a lot more of Eden's story in the third book, so I'm hoping she is able to learn to love herself by the end of the trilogy.
Jasinda's writing is absolutely second-to-none. It's breath taking. I really think that if this book had been written by almost anybody else, I'd have put it down as soon as things started to get tough. I can't stand having my heart ripped out so savagely, usually. But her writing just draws me in like nothing else. It's addictive, it's engaging and it's so intensely emotive.
"What - what if she never wakes up, Eden?" His voice was a ragged whisper. "What do I do?"
"I don't - I don't know."
"I - she's my wife. I love her. I don't know how to - I don't know what to do. I miss her. I need her."
I wish I could tell you more, but I just can't. I know that this book is going to be a real 'marmite' read... some people just won't be able to read it and others just won't be able to put it down. Personally, I need the final instalment. I'm nervous, because I know this is going to painful, but I have to know what happens... Saving Forever is out on February 14th. Jasinda, please write quickly!!!

Not many books leave me feeling sick to my stomach or with a bad taste in my mouth! But this did both! I completely understand people make mistakes and hurt the people they love! But Eden and Cade were unredeemable! Eden was desperate and shameful! She was like a dog in heat and felt little remorse! All she ever seemed to want to do was prove she was as beautiful and desirable as Ever, and all she chased was getting Cade to say he loved her! News flash he never did, you were a fill in for his wife as you were her twin! Which does not excuse his actions! I was glad when Eden realised this and it hurt her, as she had little moral conscience or loyalty to her sister lying in a coma! I know authors write stories that come to them, but I am still at a loss as to why Jasinda Wilder would want this story recorded! It was painful, messy and horrific! The sex scenes are numerous and way too detailed! I only felt for Ever who thought she married the love of her life, but actually he was an asshole fucking her sister on the regular, why she fought for her life! I was so hopeful that book 3, would bring some resolution or redemption, but no if it's possible this tragedy managed to get more messed up! Eden manages to get pregnant by her brother in law, Ever wakes up from her
Coma, unable to have children and has to deal with an absent sister and useless husband who is distant due to guilt! Cade and Eden are so selfish, not being there for Ever, Cade actually is shit with her after she comes home from her coma, due to his guilt over sleeping with Eden, he is distant and makes her feel unloved! Instead of either being truthful and fixing things, or keeping quiet and showing the supposed love of his life how much he loves her and values how lucky he is she survives, he continues to be a weak, wishy washy idiot! He is the worst kind of supposed 'hero' as even after he finds about Eden's pregnancy, and Ever learns the truth, does he fight for her? Grovel? Nope! Ever has to basically fight for him and agrees to take on her husband and sisters love child, while Eden goes off and lives the high life with a widower who is way to good for her, with no drama, and - happy ending she doesn't deserve! There was no redemption or point to this story as it was just tragic! One of the worst series I have ever read, and the high reviews are literally astounding to me! Was hoping Ever and Eden's new fella would run off together for a new start leaving the other two scum bags in the dust!

Major spoilers :)
This is one of the nastiest books I have read and I apologize for my rudeness but this is me being tame.
1. Ever is in a coma, there's a 50/50 chance she wakes up.
2. TWO days after Ever is in a coma, Eden (Ever's twin sister) and Cade start having sexual thoughts about each other.
3. They start having sex, everywhere and justifying it. I was disgusted, repulsed and cringed at EVERY detailed scene.
4. They have sex on Ever and Cade's bed
5. They have unprotected sex
6. Cade begins questioning his feelings
7. They have sex for 6 whole months
8. They continually justify what they're doing. "To fill a void" "an emptiness" but that's a lie because they cuddle and sleep together
This book is wrong. It made me HATE Cade and Eden. How could people be so so so disgusting and uncaring, selfish and that CRUEL ?!?? How does the author think this is okay to do!
Just clarifying, I do 100% Cade does not love Ever. A man Inlove would not do this.
This book made me feel sick. Literally.

I have always been a fan of Jasinda Wilder and couldn't wait to read "Forever and Always." I was especially pleased that I did not have to wait for the second book in the series. I was so disappointed. Needless to say "After Forever" disturbed me from the beginning. After reading the first installment and Caden being so in love with Ever something was very wrong with Caden and Eden. I found the whole premise of the book disturbing. I do not think that Caden and Eden could be redeemed for me in any way. This was a total disappointment for me.
December 22, 2013
This was an uncomfortable story to read it's almost like I didn't enjoy it, especially after the beautiful journey Ever and Cade went through in book 1. Although the subject matter was incredibly painful, I could somewhat understand the grief that Caden was going through and his conflicting emotions.
I really didn't like Eden though, I didn't trust her and I felt like she was manipulating Cade.
I don't rate books low because the story didn't go my way so I'm giving it 5 stars for being well written, highly emotional and unputdownable.
I hope book 3 eases the unease in my heart.

Right before I decided to read this book, I took a peek at the reviews here.... I was shocked by all of the low ratings and the fact that a lot of the reviews started with "WTF." I just couldn't understand it... then I read the book.
Now I am the one saying "WTF did I just read?" Why build up this amazing love story between two people only to have some manipulative sister tear it all down in the second book?
I thought my family was dysfunctional, and then I met Eden! Arrrgh!
*Disappointed*

SPOILERS:
Book 2 of The Ever Trilogy
The gist:
The h is in a coma.
Her husband (H) and her twin sister (both love her to bits and are lost without her) have an intensely sexual and emotional relationship while she’s in hospital.
This book is about:
*him writing letters to the h about his life without her, his feelings etc. He’s totally at a loss without her: I mean he’s a COMPLETE wreck, the kind I want all heroes to be like over their heroines.
*the twin, who is damaged with major issues with self-worth, her attraction to her sister’s husband, parental issues, etc. Never-ending problems.
*sex: between the H and ow, the kind they’ve never experienced with anyone else before. Raw. Torrid. Stormy. Extremely well written. As the book progresses we (and they) can see the passionate bond they have, turn to something deeper. Sex becomes making love. They both admit it.
When he does break it off, they come to the realisation that he was subconsciously using her as a replacement for the h.
Then the ow disappears just as the h emerges from her coma. The reason was immediately obvious to me: she’s pregnant.
I can’t verbalise how much I dislike this ow and this book in general.
The fact that it's so well written despite disliking the plot irritates me even more.
I wanted so much for the ow: none of which I should mention here because I’m actually a nice person except when it comes to people who breathe when really they shouldn’t be using up precious oxygen.
The H is a nonentity. As far as I’m concerned he only has 2 reasons for living:
1. To make the h happy for as long as she wants him.
2. To give her the child that he and the ow created because she can’t have kids of her own.
She seems to have got that by the end of the last book.
Book 3 is the ow’s book and the Hxh after she wakes from her coma.

1 Star!
I just can't even with this book.
*Spoilers Below*
I hate that this book wasn't everything I was hoping for.
The first book was great. I really, really enjoyed reading and falling for Ever and Cade. However, the author took a very horrible turn in the wrong direction in this book. Honestly, I'm walking away just disgusted by the things that happened in this book. I can not in anyway shape or form condone what Cade and Eden did in this book.
Well, let me take that back, I understand to an EXTENT as to WHY something like this COULD happen, HOWEVER NOT WITH HER FUCKING SISTER!!!
I mean I could have understood anyone else, I really could have, but that shit was just unforgivable in my eyes. I mean this was suppose to be "earth shattering" love, "souls joining as one" and blah, blah, blah and then that happens. Oh no wait it gets better THAT FUCKING ENDING!!!
What in the actual fuck is that ending about? I have lost all love, respect, anything I once felt for Cade and Eden. I honest to goodness have no idea what in the world book 3 will be about, but I just don't see how the author plans to turn this thing around, I just don't .

I'll be honest, I was scared to start this one. I thought that I would sob throughout the whole thing, but it was not that bad at all!!
This book picks up where Forever & Always left off and Ever is in a coma. I felt so bad for Caden! I cannot imagine what it would be like in his shoes, having to depend on people who were your family for only a short period of time. He couldn't say no to Eden's help because he didn't have anyone else to help him. They spend a lot of time together going to visit Ever and they quickly fall into a routine. And that routine leads them to spending more and more time together even when they aren't visiting Ever.
They learn a lot about themselves as individuals and about each other as well. Cade's drawings take on another dimension and Eden's music has a whole new depth to it as well. All they want is for Ever to wake up and their missing her is a feeling neither of them knows how to make go away.
There was a lot that happened in this book that I did not expect. Was there really more that could happen to test a person's ability to survive? Especially when you can't do anything more for them? I don't know what decisions I would have made had I been in their shoes. And THAT is what I loved the most about this story. It felt real. People will do things to get back feelings they had when life was near perfect. These actions might have consequences, but sometimes the feelings are more important in that moment.
I felt a lot of things when reading this. I felt like the story could have taken so many different turns and just been a happily-ever-after-rainbows-and-unicorns-farting-glitter kind of story, but I can pick up every other book out there that will match that description. This story scared me at times, because I would read a sentence or paragraph and just think, "Oh wow" because there were moments that were so intense, I needed to shake my head as if I didn't just read what I did. Even when I suspected things that happened, actually reading what I was thinking was something else.
I need Saving Forever now! This is one of my favorite series so far and I really need to know how this series ends.

December 28, 2013HOLY SHIT!!!. Thank God for reviews that spoiled me on what was about to happen in this book. I kind of had a feeling after reading a few pages, so I had to know if my instincts were correct. Argh! I hate being right! The first book blew me away!! I don't think I can stomach continuing this one :( Since the series is called "Ever Trilogy" I hope there will be redemption to Caden on the third book and Ever will have it in her forgive him for what he did with . I loved him in Forever & Always. Such a shame. :(

Damn! How do I rate this book?
Honestly, I started this with my eyes wide open. I already know what's going to happen. Or so I thought. But there were nuances to the story that surprised me...and definitely angered me.
So I'm having a hard time rating this because despite its main theme, I really enjoyed the writing. But...argh!
Full review to come...

February 2, 2018***SPOLERS!!!!***
Honestly, I only read the spoilers...and I don't think my stomach could stand it.
I hate cheating, mostly when a husband cheated on his sick wife with his sister in law...this is the lowest moral ever.
I'm not a moral police...but my own morality banned me to read this one.
Thanks to all spoilers I have.
This is went to trash can, forever.

this is a hard one to rate not because i dont like the story because i do i just really dislike the content and what happened...almost as i would if this had happened in real life. I think there was so much potential and this just went where i really didnt want it to go...a 5 star because im still gripped to the story and need to know what happens next.. a five star because it got me crying, it made me angry it evoked emotions!! however a 3.5 star because i just didnt like where it went...great author though and you should read it but it might be hard to handle if you where hooked in by the firsy book...drama drama drama a book full of bad decisions!
January 6, 2014
So many readers have given this book a 1 star rating and I totally get why. I think if I hadn't read their reviews, including the spoilers, then I would have probably given this book the same rating. I am really glad that I read those spoilers before starting this book as I think I was prepared, I knew what was coming, I didn't like it but knowing it was going to happen I think helped.
I am giving this 5 stars because I love Jasinda's writing and I could feel Cade's grief. Jasinda sure knows how to draw readers into her character's emotions. I also could not point this book down and stayed up way way past my bedtime to finish.
I desperately want Cade and Ever to get their HEA, I think they both are soul mates and meant to be together forever and to not have any more tragedy or grief in their lives. I guess I'll just have to wait until February to find out and I can tell you if we don't get that I will be a very disappointed reader.

Reading reviews for this book I felt exactly like I feel when I see a cockroach. Repulsed, disgusted,terrified. Some people say they rate a book based on the feelings it evokes from you. Strong feelings like hatred , anxiety, anguish, sadness, madness. Also happiness, joy, lightness, fulfillment. I don't welcome every feeling, the first list, the dark ones. Imo, these are the easiest to get from you nowadays. Just watch the news or look through your car window when strolling around town.
It's more challenging in the actual time to make you feel good and hopeful that happy, joyful life is possible.
That said, I always give 1 star to books that make me feel sad/mad etc. That's not my goal when I pick a book to read.
I'm very glad I read reviews for this series. This husband and sister are characters I really don't want to read about. And if this is based on real life, I'm really deeply sorry for the girl in a comma. The betrayal of her husband and sister is just horrible. Those are 2 people who don't deserve redemption. They have no morals and don't know the words respect and loyalty. And don't try to excuse this as grieving. This is one inexcusable thing ever: cheating.
They both chose to betray. It was their choice. If they had any feelings for the girl in the comma, they should both disappear from the face of the earth.

How would you deal if your reason for living was, well not really "living"?
This book carries right on from book one, which I loved and felt everything by the way...
Ever is, well just is....
Cade's grief has him so confused, and messed up he doesn't know whether he is coming or going, he has had to deal with so much tragedy in his life(book one) and now healing from a major accident that has caused all this grief, all he has left really is Eden, Ever's twin sister, and his elderly grandparents. As much as he didn't want to latch on to anything but Ever, Eden was there, and she understood his feelings and was feeling somewhat similiar.
Eden is suffering too. Her twin, her best friend, her other half, is....and she can't handle it. All she has is Cade and she doesn't really know him, but she accepts him. And a whirlwind journey begins of anger, dark passion, frustration, numbness and more tragedy. But believe it or not, something good does happen, but you will have to read the amazing book to know ;)
Come join Cade and Eden on this journey of grief, sadness, and loneliness. This story will pull on your heart strings. You may find you relate with a character. You may tear a little or a whole lot, like I did.

And a whirlwind journey begins of anger, dark passion, frustration, numbness and more tragedy. But believe it or not, something good does happen, but you will have to read the amazing book to know ;)
Come join Cade and Eden on this journey of grief, sadness, and loneliness. This story will pull on your heart strings. You may find you relate with a character. You may tear a little or a whole lot, like I did.
