Come Back Tomorrow (Embrace Tomorrow Duet Book 1) by Amy Argent – Review by Tracy Wilkin

Come Back Tomorrow by Amy Argent
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Come Back Tomorrow is book one in the Embrace Tomorrow Duet by Amy Argent. I went in with an open mind when reading this new to me author. I can honestly say this book destroyed me. It gripped me so tragically that I was feeling all that the characters were going through. Come Back Tomorrow is a deeply emotional and devastating tale of compassion, connection, understanding, acceptance, determination, hopelessness, optimism, helplessness. It also depicted courage, incredible strength, endurance, love, passion, sadness, frustration and fierceness. It touches on the harrowing journey that is the battle of Will’s life. I have never read a more descriptive, and desolating story that just utterly broke me. I marvelled at the way the author set this up. The execution was meant for maximum impact an boy she did not miss the mark. I felt as if I was wrung out and put through a grinder. I was stripped raw emotionally and never has two characters left me totally spellbound and enamoured by their tragic circumstances. But in all that heartbreaking sadness, the frightening thoughts that any day could be the last, Will and his angel somehow managed to push through the adversity and the insurmountable odds stacked against them. The incredible inner strength that this woman had was impressive and totally selfless. The good times were so few and the bad times seem to go on endlessly. And I, the reader, was along for the ride. It literally hit high levels and then plummeted so fast that there was little hope that there would be a happy ending. In all honesty, this book is not for the fainthearted. It was one of the most difficult stories I have ever read. It left me totally depleted and unable to comprehend what just happened. It was one of the most harrowing stories imaginable, but one of the best written stories I have ever been honoured to read. As hard as it was, this story has left me with some of the most beautiful memories I have ever had from a story. I can say that it was a wildly touching story and one that I will never forget. These types of stories leave a lasting impression and not a lot of authors have the talent to pull it off. Amy Argent unveiled an unforgettable and courageous tale of a war unlike any other, and the lengths people go to survive, the lengths their loved ones will go to lessen the burden and provide unwavering love and support, and the relentless desire to conquer this devastating disease that robs the world of way too many. A compellingly moving story that will be hard to move on from. And the stunning conclusion awaits. What is in store for Will and his angel? I cannot wait to find out. 5 stars.
