Review<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is one word to describe Never Say Never<\/em>, scandalous.<\/p>\n

Victoria Christopher Murray does it again by this cleverly written novel.<\/p>\n

Never Say Never<\/em> is heart wrenching on many levels. I had trouble reading this book because it was so realistic and emotionally challenging.<\/p>\n

Victoria Christopher Murray is a masterful writer and storyteller, she lures you in at page one.<\/p>\n

I do not want to get into the specifics of Never Say Never<\/em>, because I do not want to spoil it for you.<\/p>\n

But if you want to go on the ride of your life, I highly recommend reading Never Say Never. <\/em>You won’t be able to put this book down.<\/p>\n
