Rainfall - Melissa Delport


♥♥♥♥

This is one of those books where you can't say too much without ruining it for someone, and when reading the back summary you will see they didn't give away anything. As a South African myself I am ashamed to say this is my first new South African author that I've read in years, and I am so glad that I did. 

Paige's fiance is shot and killed just after they move in together and her father has Alzheimer's. Paige fights depression and just seems to get her life back on track, living life to the fullest, doing one dangerous and exhilarating thing a month. When Paige meets Adam the attraction is instantaneous. There isn't a lot the Paige knows about Adam's past just that he grew up in an orphanage. They fall head over heels in love with each other, and Paige starts believing that she has found her happily ever after. Until she finds Adam in bed with another woman. 

Paige runs and cuts Adam off, she doesn't answer his calls and tries to fight her way though another bout of depression, until Adam's psychiatrist shows up at her door, revealing Adam's secret that shocks Paige. She is determined to fight for him, to help him get through this and to work towards their happily ever after. 


Beautifully written, emotionally draining in a very good way. The story is both beautiful and heartbreaking especially when the climax is reached. One of those books that stays with you days afterwards. Prepare yourself for the book hangover that will rival all others! The characters are lovable, and they crawl into your heart immediately.
