Bittersweet Kindle Edition

Sometimes love, no matter how true or how complete, is simply…bittersweet.

The perfect son of a respectable family, Carter’s life is on the fast track for success, destined to replicate his parents’ choices and make them proud. Until the detour.

Esi Harper.

Esi’s been an outcast her entire life. When your mom’s the local psychic who owns the only new age shop in town, it just comes with the territory. Guys like Carter don’t.

But when fate has the two colliding – literally – there’s no denying their connection.

From day one, their love is against all odds, but no amount of obstacles or heartache can keep them from walking down the aisle and promising forever.

For one shining moment, ‘happy ever after’ seems within reach.

Then, a tragic accident changes everything.

When the best day of their lives turns into the worst, can they redefine forever and have the happy ever after they were fated for? Or will against all odds turn out to be truly impossible?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Mommy of one.

Drinker of #coffee (lots and lots of coffee).

#Writer of #bookboyfriends and #happyeverafters.

​

The stereotypical writer through and through, I find hiding out alone in my office, cut off from society where I can pursue my obsessive compulsions in peace & carry on uninterrupted conversations with my imaginary friends while I sip coffee, to be all the rage.

​

I like people too.

The real ones.

But I'm shy and often awkward, so I don't show it well.

If we meet - please don't hold this against me.

These days, life is a solid stream of awesome craziness compliments of my kid. When we're not giggling ourselves to sleep or having a sing off about Parmesan cheese, we're likely binge watching Once Upon a Time and arguing about who was better for Emma Swan - Neal or Hook. It's clearly Hook. Besides. Neal is dead. So I win.

There. That covers the basics.

Oh - also:

Internet people-ling is my favorite - let's be social!

5.0 out of 5 stars a testament to true and pure love
Reviewed in the United States on February 25, 2015

Esi and Carter were made for each other and after seven years dating, they finally tied the knot. It would have been their happiest day ever until they get into a serious car accident driving home from their fantasy wedding.

From the very first page, I knew this story would be heart rending and emotional. The happiness at the beginning of the book portended deep sadness and tears for later on.

And even though disaster struck, Esi was comforted by Carter's steadfast love and his promise never ever to leave her. She struggles through health issues and almost dying and then she is blown away when everything she believes or convinced herself to believe is untrue. Carter forces Esi to face her fears for her own good and proves to her that there is a love that will never ever end.

The scene where they lay on the meadow, face to face, eye to eye while the sun set will forever be etched in my mind as the definition of bittersweet.

Bring plenty of tissues and prepare to have your heart cut out. The feelings are so strong and true. It'll be hard to get over this book, and maybe you never will, and it will stay with you as a testament to true and pure love.

5.0 out of 5 stars SOULMATES AND PERFECTLY TITLED STORY THAT WILL STAY WITH ME 4EVER

What an OUTSTANDING EMOTIONAL, COULDN'T PUT DOWN, PAGE TURNING read. I was hooked from Chapter 1 on. I completely fell in love with Esi and Carter and was so emotionally invested in this "grab boxes of kleenex" story.
Truly touched my heart and soul. Esi and Carter are absolute soul mates and have a love and connection like no other.
Their story didn't just tug my heart strings, I seriously fell in love with these characters. I felt everything going on and had a HUGE lump in my throat throughout most of the story until I HAD to let the tears just fall. If I wasn't in a public setting I'm sure I would have cried my eyes out...THAT'S how emotion provoking it was for me. THESE ARE MY FAVORITE TYPES OF STORIES!
So beautifully written, K.S. Thomas did an incredible job. This is the first book I've read from this author and I REALLY hope she has written more of this type. Outstanding and can't wait to read more of her work. I very highly recommend reading this. It is a story that will stay in my heart forever.

4.0 out of 5 stars Everything is not what it seems
Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2019
The story starts on Carter and Esi's wedding day. Which ended in a tragedy. From which they recuperate or did they? This is a story of undying love written in a way that keep you turning the pages. Towards the end you make sense of many things in the book. It is well written with good character development.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I had to take time to gather my thoughts after reading this,I don't want to give away the storyline but what I thought was going to happen and the way I would feel about it was so very wrong in the best way! I read ALOT,for my blog Literary Lovers Book Blog and also personally as much as 2 and 3 books a day,I love that this book took me by surprise and broke out of the formulated romances we see so much of,this book took me to a place I would've never thought to go on my own,to call this a love story is like calling the Titanic a boat. Usually,in romance novels it's hard to find a balance between a strong female lead and the hot yet sweet alpha we all crave,I will say that most of us will never get to experience the depth of the epic love between Esi and Carter,but all of us can experience this book and have it touch our hearts,I will definitely be rereading this and gifting it to all of my friends! This love story makes Nicholas Sparks books look like puppy love,this author is now an automatic 1 click for me!!

Carter and Esi are the new super couple....in my book...I've always disliked flashback books, However, this book is not the same...superbly written with great main and supporting characters...with a surprising twist...definitely a must read...I don't like to repeat what the story is like in my review, because you have that already in the description...just know you won't be disappointed with your choice to read Bittersweet...

This book was posted on a blog as a new release. I decided to give it a chance ,not expecting much! I was wrong! So very wrong! I finished this book in a few hours! I couldn't put it down! I must say the book had me in tears for a good part of it, but totally worth the box of tissues I used!

Spoiler alert!
This book is so cheesey romanticly terrible. Why it was in the fantasy section, I have no clue. Maybe because the girl can see ghosts, but that's kind of a long stretch. Anyway, it's about a girl and gut who instantly fall in love and spend the first three days in bed having sex. Of course his parents hate the girl because of a Montague, Capulet kind of deepset hate of the families and of course he disowns his family for her. They get married. They have sex in a car on their wedding day. They get in a terrible accident and both barely survived. She is pregnant and knows two weeks after getting knocked up on her wedding day. She is a perfect angel that is a therapist and helps people and always instantly apologizes for any outbursts. The accident somehow caused an infection some her heart and she had complications during pregnancy. She dies during childbirth, but comes back to life. This whole time the perfect husband is totally supportive. The husband had been dead the whole time. The end. There is no conflict in the book. There are no surprises, other than the husband being dead the whole time. There are no hot sex scenes. There is nothing entertaining about this book. Even the crash scene held no interest for me. There is only smushy ooey gooey love and the girl and her family complaining at each other the entire time. How this got 5 stars on amazon, I have no idea.
