I never learn. After having gone through several tissues while reading the first two books (back to back, I might add) in the Elements series—The Air He Breathes and The Fire Between High & Lo—I should have known I was in for another round of tear-swiping, nose-sniffling, and heart-squeezing moments with the third book. Like its predecessors, The Silent Waters can be read as a standalone, having no ties to the stories or characters before it other than the four elements theme. So, feel free to read the books out of their order or publication, but I do hope you'll read each of the three currently available titles. The time you put into them will be more than worth it because Brittainy C. Cherry has proven herself to be one hell of a gifted storyteller. This is only my third read from her and I'm already immensely impressed with what I've read so far. The Elements series is an evocative collection of stories, and as this third book has proven yet again, the author is a master in taking your heart, tearing it apart, and piecing it all back together again.

The Silent Waters is the love story of Maggie May Riley and Brooks Tyler Griffin, who meet as six-year-olds. Maggie is Brooks's best friend's new stepsister and while she is more than welcomed into her new home and family, it's Brooks's gesture of kindness that ties them and keeps them tethered, whether as children who can't quite stand each other but later share their first kiss or teenagers discovering first love together and their first true heartbreak. They remain bound to one another even after a horrific event renders Maggie literally speechless, unable to give voice to what happened in the woods, and even after Maggie pushes Brooks towards his dream of making it big along with his best friends that make up their band. She has stayed behind, moored by the trauma that continues to dictate her life, while he has floated from one place to another, sharing his music with the world. As their lives change, one thing has always stayed the same—their love—but will that be enough for Maggie and Brooks to weather storms and keep them anchored to each other, or will they end up drifting further away and drowning in deafening silence?

Maggie and Brooks's story could have gone in a myriad of different ways, and yet the author weaved together a tale that was all their own. I honestly can't recall if I've ever read anything that followed in the exact same vein. Maybe a part or two, but not in its entirety. The main characters had a connection from the time they were six and even when things got difficult and they ventured away, they stayed connected. Brooks's love for and devotion to Maggie may seem fantastical to some, but there's an honesty and purity to it that's become a rarity in the romance novels I've read over the past few years, with eroticism and overt sexuality being at the forefront. Don't get me wrong. This book does contain sex, but even at their most passionate, these two share an intimacy that made them and their story feel even more worthy of my emotional investment. There are the anticipated complexities that make this such an engrossing read, with a twist I didn't see coming until it was nearly right there in front of me and with challenges thrown Maggie's and Brooks's ways but always, always, meeting them together. The Silent Waters shows that life may lead us in different directions, but true love, when we let it, will always lead us home. Five-plus stars. ♥

The Silent Waters edition by Brittainy Cherry Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

“Not all broken things need to be fixed. Sometimes they just need to be loved. It would be a shame if only people who were whole were deserving of love.”

Breathtaking!! So incredibly stunning.

Wow! The writing of this blew me away. Deep, raw, emotionally charged. I couldn’t put this book down.

Oh my, the intensity of this story. I was so incredibly overwhelmed with feelings. So many times, my chest was tight, I could barely breathe. It starts out so cute, and innocent. I was chuckling out loud. And then, wow. This story, the words, everything about it will engulf you.

“That was the thing about love. It didn’t leave because you told it to go. It simply stayed quiet, bleeding out from the pain, still praying you wouldn’t let it slip away.”

The writing is absolutely phenomenal! I could feel everything everyone was going through. There were so many times I could barely breathe. The struggles were so real and ripped you wide open.

“It amazed me how the heart could shatter in a crowded room and the sound couldn’t be heard by a single person.”

Oh Brooks. What a truly spectacular character we have here. Maggie has been through a tragedy and he is her anchor. The way he cares for her, the way their relationship comes about, how they are with each other, it’s truly magical. Brooks sees Maggie, he HEARS her. Their love is so special and so deep.

“I hadn’t known you could hear someone’s voice so clear in the silent moments.”

The secondary characters were so incredibly special to this story. They added so much depth. The love, bonds, and understanding are so heartwarming.

“Being in love with someone didn’t mean you only loved them during the sunbeams. It meant you stood by their side during the cloudy nights, too.”

There are so many incredibly touching moments throughout this story. So many words that will move you and pierce you. It’s absolutely breathtaking.

“Her heartbeats were made for me, and mine for hers.”

This story is a journey. A full journey of hope, fear, loss, trying to find your way, healing, and the power of love. It’s soul piercing and incredibly beautiful.

“He deserved to be loved out loud, and my love was a whisper in the wind that obviously only he could hear.”

A stunning, breathtaking story that you don’t want to miss.

“The world keeps spinning because your heartbeats exist.”
