Mia has a pretty much perfect life: rocker parents, an adorable brother, an amazing best friend, and of course, a great passion for the cello. And there’s Adam. The handsome rocker who fell for the quiet cellist. Mia and Adam couldn’t be more different, but they match perfectly, and neither of them could ask for anyone else.
Despite her solid relationship with Adam, Mia has choices to make, and she chooses to apply for Julliard, one of the most prestigious music schools… Even though it is on the other side of the country.
But all it takes is one snowy morning, a family trip in the car, a lorry driver not looking the right way… And suddenly, Mia has only one choice left to make.
This is a powerful novel, which will reach out and touch your heart, make you smile and cry. The way it is written makes you feel calm and relaxed, but at the same time the story is really fast-paced and gripping.
I honestly have nothing negative to say about this book, I enjoyed every single moment of it.
The constant flashbacks into Mia’s life make you want to keep on turning the pages, to learn more about her, and try and work out what choice she might make in the end.
I loved how while Mia was unconscious, her “mind” was still walking about, seeing everything that was happening around her and helping her make the toughest decision she will ever need to make.
This is about life or death. Making sacrifices. This is about loss, and also facing your worst fears.
