Synopsis:
Fans of Covet by New York Times bestselling author Tracey Garvis Graves will be delighted by this novella-length sequel.
When Daniel Rush wakes up in the hospital after
suffering a gunshot wound to the head, the last person he expects to see at his
bedside is his ex-wife Jessica. Their marriage disintegrated after the death of
their infant son Gabriel, and Daniel gave Jessie what he thought she wanted:
the freedom to start over with someone else. But Daniel never updated his
emergency contact information, and Jessie is the one who receives the call with
the devastating news.
Daniel was Jessie’s one true love. Together
since college, Jessie had dreams of raising a family with Daniel, and growing
old together. When Gabriel died, Jessie buried those dreams with her beloved
son and shut everyone out, including Daniel.
Daniel faces months of grueling rehabilitation
and he’s going to need some help. Jessie is the last person anyone expects to
volunteer, but this is her one chance to make amends, giving her and Daniel a
shot at getting things right this time.
The road to recovery will be long and arduous.
But with Jessie leading the way, Daniel just might be able to get his old life
back.
Daniel knows how to covet. But can Jessie help
him remember how to cherish?
*Please note that this is a novella-length
sequel. Reading Covet before Cherish is highly recommended in order to enhance
your reading pleasure.
Five Stars
More of Daniel to Cherish!
After
having read Covet, there was no doubt
that I wanted and needed more of Daniel Rush’s story.
As
you can tell from my rating that I LOVED Cherish!
I loved that this was a second chance story for two people whose lives were ripped
apart in the past when they experienced something so tragic. The process of recovery from
his gunshot wound to the head is long and painful, but for Daniel having his ex
by his side could very well be a blessing in disguise.
I
liked Jessie! In the beginning she’s introduced at such a tense moment. Tracey
Garvis-Graves writes her as a character with so much compassion. I loved how
Jessie understands what Daniel needs, especially his emotional needs. In a way
his recovery was therapeutic for her as well, and I appreciated that aspect of
the story so much. I thought all the special moments for them were tender and
well written.
I’m so glad Ms.
Garvis-Graves continued their story. Although short and sweet, this novella was
still fulfilling for me. If you were a fan of Daniel in Covet, you will definitely be a bigger fan of his after reading Cherish.
