Shattered. To be broken into many pieces. That simple definition has one key word that stands out. Broken. What happens when the future seems so bright and full of endless possibilities, and then suddenly your world is ripped apart. The friends you love. Gone. The light and hope that once existed. Dimmed. What happens when memories are blurred with regret and what ifs. And what happens when your life is forever changed leaving you broken. Shattered. Can that one shattered moment be pieced back together or are the shards of glass better left broken?
A Shattered Moment by Tiffany King was simply beautiful. When I say this book is beautiful, I truly mean it. This book was one of the most touching, endearing, heartfelt, and raw New Adult books that I have read. I love a book that can make you FEEL the raw and vulnerable aspect of loss, grief, regret, and emptiness. Ms. King did an amazing job with this book as she was able to juxtapose and weave into this story with themes of love, forgiveness, second chances, and acceptance. A Shattered Moment is just not an ordinary love story but a book that inspires hope. Hope that light can shine through in our darkest hour and that love truly heals.
When Mackenzie Robinson life went from bubbling high school graduate to suddenly a broken shell of a woman when a tragic accident ripped her life apart, how does one go on living? How does one move on when not only your life is broken but as well as your five friends. Not just one life was shattered but five others. Six shattered and broken lives. Their hope and dreams gone. So how does one cope? Well for Mackenzie, she just exists. Exists in a world where she feels numb and the light has dimmed with loneliness. So what happens when fate had a different plan for her and when love comes knocking on her door? Can you love someone who is broken?
Bentley James never expected that he would see Mackenzie again after he rescued her from that tragic accident. But a chance encounter in a college library a year later only encouraged him to continue in his pursuit of getting to know Mac. He does not see Mac as a broken girl but as a woman who is strong and resilient. No matter of her disabilities, he saw a woman who just needed tender loving care. A woman who just needed to be reminded of her true beauty inside and out. Bentley was the perfect man to bring back the light into Mac's eyes. He was the only to break down the walls that surrounded her heart and allowed her to see that her life did not end that fatal day but just a beginning of second chances. So can Bentley heal her broken her heart and make her see she is worthy of love and new beginnings?
I absolutely loved this book. A Shattered Moment was a gripping, emotional, and beautiful tale that I will hold dear to my heart. I love that Ms. King was able to showcase a book that reminds us all that nothing is truly shattered. A broken piece can be glued and pieced back together. Light can shine through the darkness. And most importantly, that through time the heart can heal. And the biggest glue to piece back the shattered pieces is LOVE. Love can truly heal and Ms. King reminded us all to not lose sight of hope. A hope that second chances and new beginnings exists. This book was written so raw that you could feel every emotion brimming off each page. There is no hurt so great that love can't heal it. Eventually, Bentley was able to show Mackenzie that love heals everything even the shattered and broken hearts. So if you are looking for a book full of hope, love, second chances, and healing then I highly recommend you to read A Shattered Moment by Tiffany King.
