He has unbenosed to them made sure that they will come back together, as he new their story hadn't ended their final chapter for them hadn't been written and he wanted them to find out what that their ending will be.
As teenagers they were so in love but now they were adults with complicated lives but once they came together they new that their love for each other had never gone away.
Dawson had never found anyone since Amanda because he didn't want anyone but her, she had married and had 4 children though she loved her husband she new that it wasn't real love, the love like she felt for Dawson.
Finally meeting they thought by chance 20 years later they new their love was still there, they had a weekend together both wanting to be together but knowing that Amanad's life wasn't so simple to walk away from though she new she should and so wanted to be with Dawson.
The weekend finished they did what they need to do for Tuck they scattered his ashes at the cottage he and his wife had together, happy that Tuck and Clara his wife were now together again. Tuck new life was short and wanted them to either get back together or move on from each other as he new they both weren't happy.
Tuck had been living life after Clara's death with her ghost and he didn't want Amanda to live with the ghost of Dawson for the rest of her life when she could have the real thing and be happy.
Amanda made the decision to stay with her husband but not because she love him but because of her children. Amanda is on her way home when she gets a call from her son saying that he and her husband have been in a car accident her son ends up needing a heart transplant obviously she his heart broken just willing her son to be OK..
The whole time Dawson is in oriental he is trying to stay away from his crazy cousins his family where known in the town as crazy criminals his dad had passed away so there was noone to control his cousins one night he had been in town his cousin ted tried to kill him but had got away and ted was pretty banged u and wanting revenge.
Dawson leaves oriental wanting to be with Amanda wishing he made her stay but he knew he couldn't no matter what he wanted.
He realises he has left the last letter tuck has given him at tucks house so goes back but he knows that his cousins are still out for blood.
An incident leads Dawson to follow this man to help a person he once new his cousins were beating up a man in a local pub Dawson comes to the rescue and get shot in the head and his declared brain dead. I could see this coming and wishing it wasn't going to happen you wish for these two to have their happy ending.
Amanda's prayers are answered when her son gets the heart he needs, he finds it hard to come to terms with when he first comes round but eventually he is thankful for the second chance he has got.
Amanda gets a call a while later and is told of his death her heart is ripped out the boy now the man she loved was no longer here she has lost the love of her life.
Two years later Amanda is still with her husband still not in love with him just not wanting to ruin her family, her son wants to send a letter to the donor of the hearts family all he new was that the man was 42 years old. when Amanda got the call about Dawson's death she new that he had been the donor of her sons heart. The love of her life's heart was now keeping her son alive the man who once said "I gave you the best of me" now he really had, she hugged her son hearing and feeling Dawson's heart beating on her chest and said she loved him.
When I first got this book I was expecting it to have a happy ending for Dawson and Amanda to get to finally be together as they were meant to be. That after all this time that their love story was cut short you wanted them to have their happy ending. Instead Amanda just couldn't leave her family I just wanted to shake her and say be with Dawson he loves you, you love him stop being so silly yes its complicated but that life it will work out in the end and you and Dawson can grow old together.
Amanda wonder if it was a love that could last a mundane life would daswon still see he as this beautiful creature, he could he had no question that he wanted to wake up with her have dinner with her and her children the normal things she would always be special to him. Amanda new it could work but was scared she wanted to wake up to him in the morning sit and watch him fix cars as they were the only ones who really got each other they new each other it was a special love which makes it sadder that Amanda had to
As soon as you read that her son is needed a heart transplant you no Dawson is going to be a the donor I was crying hoping this wasn't going to be true but sadly it is, though its so heart wrenching that they cant be together you no they will be again one day they found each other twice in life I'm sure they will in death.
The book makes you think of you own what ifs if you chose different things done different things but life is to short to make the wrong decision do what your heart wants then you can never go wrong its better than looking back when you 40 thinking what if?
From this book you get follow your heart, don't waste time being with some one your not in love with though it maybe complicated its better to be with someone you love than live with their ghost of what might of been for the rest of your life.
