“The mind, it can be a deceitful thing. But it is no match for the heart.”It is such a thrill to a zealous reader like me to not only realise that one of my favourite authors never fails to blow my mind with her stories, but that she also remains capable of surprising me, time after time, as I never quite know what kind of ‘journey’ she would take me on, always somehow managing to leave me utterly stunned in the aftermath of her extraordinary tales. This book was like no other that I have ever read, its unique structure and pace designed to make our hearts race, skip beats, melt and crush from one moment to another, never knowing what to expect next. Meticulously assembled to ‘feed’ us only little snippets of the story at a time while our minds are frantically tiling the puzzle pieces to form the picture we are so desperate to complete—this is an impeccably written story, infused with suspense and cloaked in mystery, showing us the hefty price of a second chance at happiness in life.“You get to be whoever you want to be, without the burden of your past.”A young woman is found beaten, raped, and left for dead in the middle of a forest, her young body desperately clinging onto its last thread of life. We don’t know much about the man who rescues her except that he is in love with her, and that no one can know that she was found. After a myriad of life saving procedures and a long hospital recovery, the young woman wakes up with no recollection of her past or any of the events that caused her injuries. Confused, scared, ashamed of her scars, her battered body is a constant reminder of everything that has happened to her, and of everything she has no memory of, her mind having locked itself in a desperate act of self-preservation.
I’ve been staring at a blank screen for an undetermined amount of time, not sure where to start with my review on Burying Water. And the reason for this is - there are no words left. K.A. Tucker has created such a brilliant piece of work, that I’m almost afraid to talk about it for fear of not being worthy to discuss such a simply amazing book. This wasn’t just another romantic read for me, this book has become a part of me, an extension of myself - it has latched onto my soul. Its taken pieces of my heart that I’ll never get back, and given me a feeling of warmth that I never want to let go. The laughter, the love, the suspense, and the ugly crying - all of it, I completely loved every second. Yes, the ugly crying is included in that. And I’m not talking about a few little tears either, I mean the painful, gasping ugly cry that hurts - but hurts in such a good way. It will happen, it does happpen - and through the tears the love behind the message will find you and help wipe away the sadness. KA Tucker’s writing is just that powerful and compelling.I am lost and somehow found. I am afraid and yet somehow comforted. I am drifting and yet somehow….home.Jesse Welles wasn’t looking for love. He wasn’t looking for any complications . 6 months ago, he landed the job of his dreams as a mechanic at a popular garage in Portland and he’s more than content spending his days doing what he loves - working on cars. He definitely wasn’t looking to meet a mysterious girl on the side of the road on a dark and stormy night. A girl who’s haunting eyes, cryptic words and seductive, soft lips have left him longing for more. When the same girl shows up weeks later, the wife of a very controlling, high powered man - the message is obvious.
Wow. Wow. Wow. Burying Water may just be the best book I've read in 2014.I've been a fan of K.A. Tucker for quite some time, her Ten Tiny Breaths series being some of my favorite books of all time. It turns out Ms Tucker was holding out on me.... on all of us! She has a few more tricks up her sleeve, and with her delivery of Burying Water comes my increased excitement as to what else she could possibly have in store.Burying Water is so different from anything this author has published before. Yes, Tucker consistently weaves serious drama alongside her compelling romances. Her characters are flawed and damaged personalities, struggling under the weight of tragic histories, battling internal demons or some external conflict. Burying Water maintains those themes, but in such a fresh, new way. Alternating between Water's present first person point of view and Jesse's past first person point of view, we know where this story began and we know how it ended... what we don't know is everything that's transpired in between... or where it could possibly go from here. Burying Water is everything I've come to love from K.A. Tucker... heartbreak, loss, love, hope and an epic emotional journey. But It's so much more. It's... dare I say it... BETTER. I hesitate to use the word "better" because I'd hate to diminish the gravity of my love of every previous Tucker story. But in fairness, I shouldn't even compare. Burying Water is it's own story, a new original story nothing like anything I've read before. It's more. It's everything. It's better. The best."He said the truth is like that water: it doesn't matter how hard you try to bury it; it'll always find some way back to the surface. It's resilient."This story is magnetic.
