Rina’s Thoughts
What only the heart can see, the title describes it all. This book was a lot more than what many people take for granted. It was about the true meaning of love and life, to be more than wht people see on the surface. I felt like Marena was also blind in this book and Hunter was also bling in more than one way. But Marena helped him to see more than he ever could have before even when she was still finding her way through the darkness. Hunter inturn helped her see through her own prejudice and fears.
Of course there was all that other stuff that cam in; prejudice, judgemental father, gold digging ex-girlfriend and psycho stalker ex-boyfriend and the supportive mother and sister. This wasn’t a very romantic book but more like an inspiring read.
