Heaven and Hell by Kristen Ashley

5.0

Oh this book, Kristen Ashley strikes my heart again. The emotions, the joy, the sorrow, this woman slays me.

Kia, falls for the high school jock marries him but there life isn’t anything like she thought it was going to be. Circumstance change and not only is Kia left with the wake of a life in which she regretted but now she needs to move on with dignity and grace.

A chance meeting where she meets Sampson Cooper her celebrity crush, turns to an extraordinary date. Not only does she me this incredible man, she meets his best friend Luci who takes a liking to Kia. Luci and Kia become fast friends.

Kia is trying to move on with her life but her ex has royal messed with her life and is still doing it from the grave. She has to travel back to her home town, Sam comes with, and lordy be the scene with Sam and her girl posse had me laughing till I had tears!
There is some pretty emotion stuff going on in this book and the two scenes that have me tearing up just think about them is with Kia and her dad breaks my heart, also the one with Kia and Luci. Powerful stuff right there.

I think I love Kristen’s work so much because she brings them full circle, she also connects her other books. We get to see Lee and Joe and Tanner I mean how cool that is!

Half this book I am talking to my self and it goes a little something like this… Oh Sam how you can want her to open herself up like that when you won’t do the same. I get you have your own issues but look at her and see what your silence is doing. NOT fair Sam NOT fair. lol yes I talk to my self even when listening to an audiobook.

Ok I totally FREAKING LOVE Hap!! Hap is Sam’s other bestie.
Here are my 2 favorite quotes of the book and that is will be all for this review

“Heaven is you to baby.” OMG right!!!

Sam’s mom to Kia
“We share more than Sammy honey. I know all about walking right through hell and suddenly finding yourself on the other side. Glad it gets to be me that greet you there but more I am glad I can say I raised a man who would take your hand and lead the way.”

You need this book in your life... I swear it. <3
