From the moment I started reading, I knew I would be in for quite an emotional journey. The story was overwhelming. The emotions it elicited was raw and gut-wrenching. The writing was beautiful and the story came together perfectly. The story is told from alternate POVs. The author switched between POVs seamlessly which made the story easy to follow. It starts out with Asher's POV, allowing me to gain an instant connection to him. I felt his pain and understood his sense of loneliness, which stemmed from the recent loss of his mother. Thank goodness he had the support of his best friend, Melody to help him get through this difficult time. She was behind him every step of the way as such when he discovered that he had two half-brothers she encouraged him to seek them out.
I loved Melody's strength. She is the type of heroine who is not afraid to go toe to toe with her counterparts. Melody and Asher have been best friends since forever. They spent a lot of time together and they shared every detail of their lives with each other. Melody has been in love with Asher from as far back as she could remember. She was afraid to express how she felt for she believed that Asher did not see her in that light. I enjoyed the interaction between them both. It was evident that they cared for each other. I was rooting for their relationship. Asher failed to see that his feelings for Melody ran deeper than friendship. He would do anything to protect her even if it meant volunteering to be her first lover. When I saw the extent that he would go through just to spare her heartache and humiliation I knew right then and there how much he loved her. I loved how they both supported each other when it counted most.
This is a story of a friendship and love that has been tested and has conquered all obstacles. It beautifully depicts the themes of life, death, love, hope and healing. It demonstrates that we need to follow our hearts and that we should not waste time hating as it will only lead to loneliness and bitterness. BEAUTIFULLY UNDONE is one of those stories that will stay with you forever.
