Review: Winter Sparrow by Estevan Vega

Title: Winter Sparrow
Author: Estevan Vega
Genre: Romance
Publisher: StoneHouse Ink
Release Date: September 13th 2012
Rating: 5 Butterflies

Synopsis
“I’ll grow wings all by myself.”

Mary is a young artist about to enter a new chapter in her life. After years of waiting and searching, she has finally found true love. She’s also just discovered that her fiancé Joshua has inherited his father’s rundown countryside mansion. To add to the rising pressure, her wedding day is so close she can practically hear the music. All she has to do is accept what the future holds. Accept…and be happy.

But something’s missing.

As the seasons change, her doubts turn to fears, and her fears become reality. Through struggle and loss, the love she once possessed for Joshua transforms into contempt. When Mary is confronted with a magical escape, the life she has and the life she dreams of will collide, awakening a mysterious change within. But no choice comes without cost, and each one will draw her closer to the truth.

At times both beautiful and haunting, Winter Sparrow dares you to step into a world where eternity is a moment and every breath is a second chance. The fantasy begins….

My Thoughts
This book was really good, I enjoyed the whole way through. It kept me at suspense to what would happen next. I enjoyed the way he wrote the chapters, the way he described the hurt they felt. It was so beautiful, but so dark. There was times I wanted to cry, but that is a fantastic writing. As I would read this I would zone, and it made me feel like I was apart of this. I can't wait to see what else he has stored in his other books.
