From page one of this book, I was swept in this story involving a man and his wife who in the first few pages has a tragic accident where he is well aware of the outcome as he is a neurosurgeon and her injuries are brain related. As you can read from the synopsis, they find out early on that Elle, his wife, is pregnant and he is determined to keep her alive long enough to keep the baby alive.

Wow -- what a book! Once you start it, it is nearly impossible to put down. The story is real, the characters are developed well, and the theme has you thinking long after you finish. This one will stay with you for a long, long time. What would you do?
Highly recommended.
Highly recommended.
Man this book gives you the feels!!!From the first page it jumps right into the most heart-wrenching situation someone could be put in. It was hard to put down and I enjoyed it immensely.
Matt and Elle are literally the couple who grew up as the boy next door/the girl next door. They were high school sweethearts and then separated, had other relationships but were best friends until they finally married. She is a NASA astrophysicist and he is a neurosurgeon. From the first pages she suffers a fall and is brain dead. They quickly learn she was pregnant and he wants to keep her alive until the baby is born. But she had an advanced directive so there is a legal battle. This story was a tear jerker! Very emotional and beautifully told. We see a relationship between husband and wife and the baby that is true love.
