## Description

The Law of Moses - Kindle edition by Harmon, Amy. Romance Kindle eBooks @ desertcart.com.

Review: Easily the top read of 2014! Amy Harmon paints a story that is both equal parts beautiful & tragic. - Amy Harmon does it again. She creates a story that becomes larger than life. A story that is capable of making you connect to every single one of the characters, to feel every moment to your core. The prologue sets this book apart. The prologue all by itself creates this desperate longing and is the catalyst for every emotion you feel as you read this. The words that launch this story never leave you. “This is a story of love with no end... though it took me a while to get there. If I tell you up right up front, right in the beginning that I lost him, it will be easier for you to bear... ...And you’ll be able to prepare. And that’s my gift to you. I wasn’t given that same courtesy. I wasn’t prepared... Because it is my story. And I wasn’t prepared.” Now I’d like to ease your mind that this warning will prepare you, but I can’t do that. Like Moses and like Georgia, I can only give you truth. It will hurt. But it will inspire and it make you realize that beauty can be found in the most tragic of scenes. “The found Moses in a laundry basket at the Quick Wash, wrapped in a towel, a few hours old and close to death.” This is the beginning of the journey of Moses, the baby born from a drug addict, addicted to drugs and abandoned left to be shuffled around until finally finding a home with Gigi, his Great Grandmother. A story of a broken boy on the cusp of becoming a man that draws the attention of the neighbor girl, Georgia. The girl that speaks to horses and for some reason speaks to Moses. “She was a small town girl with a simple way of speaking and thinking, a frank way of being that turned me on and turned me off at the same time. I wanted to run from her. But at the same time, I spent all my time thinking about her.” Moses has a talent for painting, but this isn’t something he has yet to embrace, this is a talent - a gift that has only become a way to release all the pressure. But this isn’t just the ability to swirl paint on a canvas, this is something so much more that something that simple. And although Georgia has gotten close to him, he hasn’t let her in all the way. The Laws of Moses doesn’t allow for it. But Georgia isn’t one that easily gives up. Thus begins the story of a girl that falls in love with the boy that doesn’t know how to love. A boy that can only paint the things he can’t quite understand or express. “If I were to paint you, I would use every color.” That if that was the whole story, this wouldn’t have been a life changing kind of read. There are two parts. The before and the after. “Give me five greats, Georgia.” I won’t go into the details of the after, that is simply something that you have to experience for yourself. But I will tell you that the pressure I felt deep inside my chest when I started this story never released me. Not even a day has passed. Both Moses and Georgia were characters that you could not help but love from the first second you met them. There is no way to escape being pulled into the story right alongside of them and mimic every emotion they feel. There were times when I expected what was to come next, times when I wanted to curse the author for the warning at the start of this and saw that being prepared could also be quite cruel even disguised with mercy. And honestly there were times when my reactions came from my own fear bubbling up inside of me because I was trying to heed that warning. Those times when I was in tears only to realize that the moment had shifted and I had more time, well those times worked in favor with this story. I needed a subtle release of emotions throughout several moments of this story. Had everything been allowed to stay bottled up I would have been destroyed in the end. And although it hurt, still hurts – the feeling that remains with me is so much larger than hurt. It is almost like the pain has been wrapped in something peaceful. Amy Harmon tells you a story so beautiful that it allows you to see the tragic path of these characters with such a clear eye that you don’t miss that beauty. I can say easily that this is Amy Harmon’s best book to date. This just topped my list of reads for 2014. The Law of Moses capture every emotion humanly possible and there was no way to read this without falling into the story completely. I can’t imagine this story ever leaving my heart or my head. I feel privileged that this author had allowed us to experience her gift of writing. I am honored to be able to let my eyes drift over these words. I cannot express how grateful I am that she took the leap from creating these stories in her head and had the strength to risk putting them in our hands. I think this is one of those books that everyone should read. It has a touch or romance to it, as it is a love story and although it isn’t a love story not touched by tragedy, it is still an earthshaking experience that will make you feel so many strong emotions. And although many (many) tears were shed there is this indescribable peace that stayed with me after I put this down. Something serene that I felt even as I sobbed. You have not read a story like this before and I doubt you will ever encounter one like it in the future.
Review: 5 out of 5 Stars for a completely unexpected read - Georgia Shepherd is the perfect girl next door, and a 17-year-old aspiring barrel racer who loves horses, living in the small town of Levan in Utah. Her straightforwardness and curiosity is piqued when a boy moves into the house next door - a boy whose story is just as fascinating as the man himself. Moses Wright is what they call a “crack-baby” and was left in a laundry basket shortly after his birth, and although they expected him to die he managed to grow up into a 18-year-old boy, but with all sorts of problems and subject to violence and hallucinations. As a last hope, he gets sent to his great-grandmother in Utah, where nobody wants anything to do with him, except for Georgia, who is totally fascinated by this closed-up boy who paints like a god. But Moses is uncomfortable with all the attention and affection he gets from Georgia and doesn’t want her to be victim of the big secret he is keeping from her, this curse that has everyone qualify him as crazy and mad, so he does everything he can to push her away. And while he is the prime suspect for several murders and disappearances that have occurred in Utah lately, Moses has no choice but to flee and leave Georgia heartbroken. Seven years later, they meet again and both their lives have changed, but time never quite healed their wounds or even helped love fade. As Moses does his best to right his wrongs, he is bound for a true heartbreak of his own. The reason I had this read on my shelf was because my favourite author Colleen Hoover had recommended this book and I liked the plot, so I blindly gave it a go. And “blindly” seems to be the right adjective here, because I had no idea at all that this book had a touch of paranormal in it, which the teaser did not give away (in addition to that, I never read the GR reviews in advanced so my own review remains unbiased, so there’s no way at all I could have known). Well, most of you will hate me for this, but I am am totally not into paranormal (vampires, mindreaders and werewolves and all that stuff? no thanks!). But hey, I really enjoyed The Law of Moses because that paranormal touch made the book an extremely suspenseful and unexpected read. There is not much to say without actually spoiling the read any further, so I will just comment on the book itself. First of all, I fell in love with Amy Harmon’s wonderful and powerful writing: there is emotion and depth in every word, and it will leave you hooked from beginning to start. The teaser says it all: prepare for a story of pain and promise, of heartache and healing, of life and death. - and believe me when I say that Amy Harmon will make you feel every single one of these emotions and many more throughout the book. The storyline was - as I said - completely unusual compared to what I generally read. But it was perfect. Perfect and refreshing. Perfect because it was seamless: so much that you could actually believe it for real. And refreshing because well… it is primarily a love story (but far from being your ordinary blissful love story: prepare for lots of tears and gut-wrenching emotions) and it is also a suspenseful thriller that will definitely send shivers down your spine as you read it. Everything in the book was just perfect, and although I didn’t want this book to come to an end, the story is provided with a wonderful closure for two very authentic characters whose story I will never forget. This standalone is neither young adult nor new adult, it’s not drama or paranormal or anything else - The Law of Moses cannot be shoved into a box or given any kind of label: it’s a unique book that I would recommend to anyone.
