Daphnie's 4 Star Review
I love Gabbie Duran, her books pull you into the story. Unspoken Promises was fantastic. Although at time's I want to toss my kindle across the room and beat a few of the characters over the head.
Unspoken Promises picks up were Unspoken Memories left off. This is not a standalone and you should read Unspoken Memories first. Abigail and Matt have final made things right and they are happy. It was short lived and in steps a bunch of drama.
This was a great follow up to book one, you can tell that Abigail and Matt have a connection no mater what they are going through. But this is one of those book were you know you are about to get a whole lot of drama. Matt and Abigail had many obstacles they needed to face.
I will say I wanted to shake them, or beat them with my kindle. There was so many obstacle they had to go threw it was a bit tiring at times.
This was an amazing book and series. I can't wait! we get a book three in the series Unspoken Ending. This is one series you don't wont to miss out on. Read my 4.5 star review on Unspoken Memories .
Matt…
Emily always had a way of making me see the answer to my problems. While growing up, she was always there to lend an ear. Listening without judgment to every single word. I don’t know how many times I depended on her for an answer, and no matter how many times I asked, she always responded.
The day she died, it felt as if she took a part of my soul with her, and I had let her. She deserved it more than I did. It wasn’t until the day Abigail walked into my life that I knew that part of my soul had returned. It’s as if Emily was giving it back to me, knowing I desperately needed it.
Abigail was the light at the end of a darkened tunnel that I was trapped inside of. I had refused to keep walking forward when Emily died, but Abigail finally forced me to take the steps to awaken her. She helped me find the light within myself.
Dropping down to the ground, my knees hit the earth, sending a jolting pain up my legs. I stare down at the grave marker, realizing it’s the first time I’ve laid eyes on it. The elegance of the black marble represents the extravagant taste of her husband’s family. I had blown off their countless phone calls when they had contacted me to help choose the marker. I didn’t care. It would have made me face the reality that she was never coming back. The agonizing disbelief of seeing it brings tears to my eyes.
I sit there with the silence surrounding me as I allow the tears to fall and the agony takes over me. I miss her so fucking much. I keep wishing that she were still here with me. Just a phone call away like she was before. I’m selfish, I know, but I hate the fact that she’s no longer by my side when I want her to be.
After what seems like hours of sitting there crying alongside her, I somehow find the courage to speak. “I fucked up, Em,” I say crying at her grave. “And I don’t think she’s ever going to forgive me. You always told me that me fucking around was going to come back and bite me in the ass and you were right.” The words come out as a whisper as I continue to speak. “I can’t stand the thought of losing her, as I did you,” I cry down to her, expecting an answer, but all I receive is silence.
