BLOG TOUR POST RIPPLE BY L.D. CEDERGREEN

 

Synopsis

Kendall Brooks has an impossible decision: Tell the truth or protect the lie?

She has buried herself in years of undergrad, medical school, and now her residency–hoping to leave behind what she is unable to face.

Her world is rocked to the core when she returns to her small hometown and runs smack dab into her first love, Adam McCoy.

Adam is the key. He stirs up old emotions that send Kendall spiraling back in time, remembering all the moments that led them to her ultimate deception.

Will revealing the truth of what transpired all those years ago provide her the self-forgiveness that she desperately craves or will her devastating secret destroy the only man she has ever truly loved, shattering her heart in its wake?

Excerpt

I stood at the cold dark water’s edge, my reflection staring back at me from the glasslike surface. The reflection of a girl that I no longer knew. I breathed in the overwhelming scent of pine and recognized the tranquility that surrounded me. The soft hum of the city in the distance, the echo of an eagle’s cry overhead, the steady drum of my heart—the only sounds that could be heard in the quiet serenity that was present all around me. Inside an entirely different scene existed. Whirling thoughts, like hurricane-force winds, blew through my mind while a dark, thunderous storm was raging inside my soul, cutting the power to the central organ of my existence—my heart. I was destined to weather this storm on my own. After all, like Mother Nature, I was the controlling force behind these conditions. I threw a stone into the mirrored surface of the water before me and watched the small circular wave expand from the point where it broke through the stillness. It was hard not to think of the stone as the choice I had made, the choice that inevitably created waves in the smooth waters of my life. The first lie, like the first ripple in the water, seemed so small but quickly became more significant. Each wave growing in size and depth, impossible to stop. The effect from that one choice spread through my life like the ripple moving across the surface of the water. I longed for the stillness.

Ripple starts with Kendi and Adam in high school and really not knowing each other at first. They started seeing each other Adam asked Kendi to homecoming, she was so excited, But Homecoming would change there relationship forever. You see them grow as  a couple and as there own person over a year and a half. Then Adam leaves for collage and Kendi  still has a year of high school left but there love is strong  enough to make it. While Adam is at Collage Kendi is home and finds out something that could cause Adam to lose her forever. This something is so HUGH You are not sure if they can or will recover from it.

I have to say I was shocked by what this HUGH something is and you will be too! They both keep and have so many secrets and they are not what you would have thought or guessed! I went through so many emotions while reading Ripple , It is definitely worth your time to read and I highly recommend it! You will fall in love with all the Characters and be left wanting more. So we are left with one Question will there be a sequel to Ripple?
