USA TODAY Bestselling Author Claudia Burgoa brings the conclusion of the Impossible Possible duet with The Truth About Us.
Every night, I find myself caught between dreams and wakefulness. Yearning for a past that slips through my fingers.Each night, whisper prayers into the darkness.
Longing for just one kiss, one more touch...
Longing for her.
Maybe forever is a lie.
The truth is that tragedy will always break your heart.
But maybe, this time, I can build something greater out of tragedy.
Maybe...just maybe love isn’t as lost as I once thought.
And maybe forever might still happen to me.
***The final book in the Impossible Possible duet examines grief, loss, and ultimate love put to the test.

MY IMPRESSIONS OF THIS BOOK:
Ten years (in the Decker Family world) have passed since Ms. Burgoa broke reader's hearts with a cliffhanger that left us battered and bruised. This book drops readers right back in the middle of their drama by bringing Gabe and Ame together to help care for her young niece and nephew. While they unite to be a family for two youngsters dealing with their recently disabled (and addicted) mother, they also start working through the pain of their own pasts in order to finally reach their long-destined HEA.
It's a raw and gritty journey for Gabe and Ame as he reveals all that happened leading into the cliffhanger and all the other events that befell him and drove him from her. The reason for their reunion is believable and seamlessly fuels everything that follows. From hard truths being revealed, to second chances being given, there were plenty of scenes that made my heart bleed. There were also blissful moments of delight as seen through the text streams between this couple, streams that warmed my heart while making me blush. Throughout their second chance Gabe worked hard to prove himself to Ame, went above and beyond to care for those she loves, while slowly releasing the chains around his heart to fully embrace the HEA within his reach. As for Ame, she's accomplished much since their separation, but along with that her heart's become more and more jaded with a wall surrounding it that's gotten higher and higher. It added even more heartache to the journey to forgiveness Gabe was undertaking along with frustrating me as she had him twisting in knots in a dance of push and pull.
Along with a memorable main couple there was an equally appealing cast of secondary characters. From the various members of the Decker Family with their humorous banter and supportive actions, to the rebuilding of a love meant to be, this was a tale full of emotions that kept me glued to the pages. Ms. Burgoa had me cursing her name at the end of the previous book and I knew it would take a lot of work to lead readers to a satisfying conclusion. But lead us there she did, in a journey of ups and downs with Ms. Burgoa playing our emotions like a maestro! Each turn of the page had me rooting for this pair more and more, investing me fully in their hard-fought journey to HEA, and I recommend it wholeheartedly to those wanting a tale full of heart and soul!
My rating for this is an A-
*I got this book from the author for review in exchange for my honest opinion.
