The Coldest Winter by Brittainy Cherry is a beautiful and heartbreaking tale depicting love's power to heal. Cherry, with her signature style, created a story aimed at captivating her readers. Anyone choosing to pick up The Coldest Winter should prepare to shed a few tears along the way.The story, which moved at a steady pace, dealt with some hard-hitting issues. Grief over the loss of a loved one, substance abuse, and depression. The story also shows that not everyone handles grief the same way. For some persons grief pushes them to pursue activities they feel will honor the person they loss, while some find themselves on a downward spiral. The hero and the heroine featured in this compelling tale will slowly capture your heart. Soon you will want to root for Milo and Starlet’s happily ever after, despite the forbidden nature of their relationship. It may have started out as a one-night stand, but fate had other plans for these two. Starlet came into Milo’s life at the point where he needed someone to believe in him and show him unconditional love. Losing his mom shook him up so badly, he began engaging in destructive activities. Also, it didn’t help that his father failed him by choosing to numb his pain with alcohol. Strangely enough, it was one of those destructive activities led to his meeting the woman who would save him from the destructive path. I loved Milo and Starlet’s interactions, which were sprinkled with a dash of humour. This added levity to an otherwise serious tale. They both suffered the loss of a loved one, which aided in their ability to relate to each other. One could sense the genuineness of their love for each other based on the sacrifices they willingly made for each other. I found them to be quite mature for their ages. At a point I forgot was reading about a nineteen-year-old hero and a twenty-one-year-old heroine.I adored the story, enjoyed meeting the characters and following them on their journey of self-discovery, healing and love. The Coldest Winter checked all the boxes and I have no hesitation in recommending it to readers interested in a well written forbidden romance.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
