Gabby

Looking back, I should have seen the signs. Perhaps I did, but I subconsciously chose to ignore them.

From the time I was ten, when I first met Dylan, I knew he was my forever guy. Back then, I couldn’t put words to what I was feeling, but, as the years progressed, I came to recognize it for what it was—soul-deep love. The kind only very few people ever get to experience. Dylan was more than just my best friend, my childhood sweetheart, my lover.

He was my soulmate.

We were carved from the same whole—destined to be together forever.

Until he changed.

And I believed I was no longer good enough.

Until he shattered me so completely, it felt like I ceased to exist.

And I’d never experienced such heart-crushing pain.

Until he leveled me a second time, and I truly wanted to die.

But I had to stay strong because I wasn’t alone in this cruel twist of fate.

I look to the sky, pleading with the stars, begging someone to tell me what I should do because I don’t know how to deal with this. I don’t know how to cope when my forever has changed, and I can’t help wondering if I had seen the signs earlier, if I’d pushed him, would it have been enough to save us?


Or had fate already decided to alter our forever?

I've seen Siobhan Davis books promoted here and there and I've seen good feedbacks. So when I saw an opportunity to review one of her upcoming release, I did not hesitate. When Forever Changes popped my Siobhan Davis cherry and I couldn't be more delighted.

I don't know how to describe the story plot. It's kind of cliche but then it's not. I had a hard time debating what I should feel. The way it's written gives me the feels of actually being there. Like I'm feeling the person's internal struggle. The story flow may be a little on the predictable side but it didn't make reading any less painful. I literally have to stop and sob. I can't remember when was the last time I actually felt this connected with a story. I also liked that the author seems to hate sexists. It's pretty evident on the lines and conversation her characters portray. It also opens a different possibility in love. And in a way,I did believe her. It feels good having to read a heart-wrenching story again.

Her characters are not any less effective. It's not usual for me to like a heroine specially with the circumstances they're in and I even shocked myself for actually liking Gabby. At an extent, I understood her decisions and actions. I liked how fearless she is in getting out of her comfort zone because it is already hurting her and destroying who she really is, regardless that she is clueless on what she needs to do. Slater on the other hand is another book boyfriend added on my never ending list. He's compassionate, sweet and dedicated. He's also as true as a man can be. Someone with a little self preservation and knows when to back down if needed. Then there's Dylan too. You just want to hate him but you can't. He's a douche, I'll give you that. And his attitude is inexcusable. But something in him, makes me want to believe him and give him chance to redeem himself. The family ties is one more reason to love in this story.

Overall, I'd give this 5 out of 5 stars. Haven't had this much angst in a while.
