The Walls Between Us: A Borderland Love Story by Kate McGahan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was a heartwarming and eye opening read. The story is a romance but it also goes into details about what life is like when people try to cross the border between Mexico and the USA.

It follows two different women from both sides of the wall.

Vivianna travelled over the border with her husband to start a new life. When her husband dies she heads back to the border to return home. However on her journey back she falls into the hands of people who are human traffickers and her life as she knows it changes for the worst. The details and emotion of her experience really opens your eyes to what some people go through for a better life.

Sarah is a city girl. She moves to Mexico on the American side of the wall to help her company set up a law firm. She is glad of the adventure and the freedom but she doesnt expect to fall in love with the place. And also to find love.

Her love is from the opposite side of the wall and is fleeing a drug cartel. The story examines their differences and their likeness and shows that love knows no boundaries or walls.
