This is a heart-wrenching story, so beautifully written, it is moving and I loved it from start to finish, yes I cried a lot but there were lots of smiles throughout as well, the courage that Ava Green and her family and friends show is also very uplifting and moving, make sure you have a box of tissues while reading this one and I do recommend that you read it.
So where do I start to describe Ava Green, beautiful fun loving twenty eight year old, she has now been told that this will be her last birthday, for the cancer that she thought she had beaten before has returned, what should she do make a bucket list get in as much as she can, or do the one thing that has always been her dream and that is get married, yes there is no groom and not a lot of money but wants a celebration of her life a party to end all parties, and with the help of her best friends Kate and Amanda and her loving Mother and Father the planning begins.
When a Facebook page is created more people get involved even a magazine and there are now to be articles and photo shoots around the country and when Ava meets photographer James Gable her heart beats a little faster, there is an instant attraction and the more photo shoots the closer they get, could she be falling in love now at this time in her life and find happiness so close to having to say goodbye?
I am tearing up writing this review and I do hope that I do this book justice, because it is beautiful, Ava, James, Kate, Amanda and her Mum and Dad where so real on these pages I felt like I could hug them all, but above all Ava is so honest and caring and loving, I do highly recommend this book, it is one that will stay with me for a long time, one for the keeper shelf, MS Robinson it is fabulous and amazing thank you.
5 stars for a fabulous story
