Review<\/strong><\/h4>\n

I destroyed her life and then got caught in her wake.
\nAnd I realize now that it\u2019s exactly where I\u2019m meant to be.<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

4.5 heartbreaking stars<\/strong><\/p>\n

Even though this is technically a prequel, it is imperative that you read Ten Tiny Breaths<\/a> before reading this one. And having said that, this review is going to be hugely spoilery if you haven\u2019t read\u00a0TTB<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This novella tells Trent\u2019s side of the story \u2013 back when he was Cole. From the night of the accident, right through the four year period until Trent and Kacey are both in Miami, and he walks through that laundry door.<\/p>\n

KA Tucker does an amazing job at getting us right to the heart of all that Cole\/Trent is feeling. We get to witness a brief glimpse at his life before it shattered to pieces, his realisation that all that has happened, and watch him try to deal with the aftermath, and it\u2019s devastating.<\/p>\n

His life as he knew it is over as he loses everything dear to him, and the depression that he goes through is heartbreaking! Not only is he learning to live without the best friends that have been a part of his life for as long as he remembers, but he also mourns for Kacey and all that she has lost and he has to witness the follow on effect to his own family. And underpinning it all is the guilt that he feels over the whole situation. As tragic as it is, it really is one of those things that could happen to anybody, and it\u2019s really painful to read.<\/p>\n

The crushing pain in my chest now has little to do with my injuries.
\nAnd it\u2019s suffocating me.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Given all that he is going through, I thought that his actions towards Kacey are understandable. He focuses on her, wanting to help her through her grief, wanting her to be ok, and when he finds her spiralling out of control, he wants to protect her and help her find herself again. There is a touch of the creepy about it as his stalking gets a bit out of control, but his heart is in the right place and his dedication to helping her is a powerful force for him.<\/p>\n

I want her to meet\u00a0<\/em>me. Trent Emerson. The guy who wants to feel the warmth that I know exists within her. The guy who\u2019s tied to her forever, whether she likes it or not. The one who needs to somehow make things right with her because I made everything so wrong.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Trent\u2019s story is beautifully written, and I loved getting this glimpse into his life before we meet him in\u00a0TTB<\/em>. I need to go and reread it now so that I can see him get his happy ending.<\/p>\n

This is a must read for all fans of the series. I loved it.<\/p>\n

4.5 stars.<\/p>\n
