MY REVIEW
A Gift for Emily
The following review is my opinion and not a paid review. I received a free copy of the book from the author for my honest opinion.
In A Kiss for Emily she was looking for that one special kiss. Emily had a boyfriend Alex but they broke up. Alex's dad killed himself which took Alex over the edge and into drugs. After all of this happing to her Emily's parents decide to move them to the country. Emily is not happy about the move at all. Until she meets a new guy named Sam. Sam and Emily start hanging out together mostly at Sam's place. Sam helps take Emily's mind off all of her problems of losing her boyfriend and having to move.
And now in A Gift for Emily she is still waiting on her special, romantic kiss. She wants Sam to give her that kiss but Sam is a ghost and tells Emily that they can't kiss because if they did it would bind their souls together and when the reaper came for him or more like found him to take him to hell then he would take Emily with him. There is no way Sam will ever let that happen he cares and loves her too much. Sam tells Emily that if he could still a body and take over that body then he could kiss her. But Emily is not sure about stealing a body because it is not right. Emily believes that it would be wrong and immoral for them to steal a body.
Emily starts receiving gifts from an unknown admire who when leaving a note with the gifts address them to the lovely Emily Stokes. At first I really thought I knew who was sending Emily the gifts but then more characters were introduced into the plot and I was like well I don't know who is stalking Emily now. Emily herself thought she knew who it was too but then at other times she was in wonder land trying to figure it out. All she knew was that her stalker had now involved her family. Emily was getting fed up with everything and everyone. She was getting mad about being stalked and not getting the kiss she wants. Emily is tired of sitting around and waiting for her stalker to come after her and her family she is ready to fight. Either way she could die and she figures she might as well go down fighting.
A Kiss for Emily and A Gift for Emily are both very great reads. I like that Emily's boyfriend was ghost and the reason they could not kiss. Even if their souls didn't bond and she would be taken to hell with Sam how would you kiss a ghost anyway? I mean you can't touch him and they can't touch you. I mean not really or in a physical way. I also loved Emily's little sister Kitty she was a trip for a seven year old. With all the things she said and the come backs that she had was awesome for a girl her age. The ending is very surprising and it is also a cliffhanger. I never expected what happened to happen not in a million years. I cannot wait to read the next book in The Emily Stokes series. Will Emily loose Sam? Will Sam and Emily be together? Or will Emily end up with the deputy? Or maybe she will and can love both of them in her own way.
If you have not read A Kiss for Emily or A Gift for Emily then I suggest that you read both of them today. You really don't know what you are missing out on. As I have said before they are both great reads.
