What Is and What Should Never Be by Sariah Loire reviews
My first memory is of my family's kitchen. My father standing at the stove with me at his side, helping to prepare a meal for my family. My mother sitting at the table, cradling my baby sister, Solana. My last memory will be of lying on this floor in a rush of blood. Of seeing a blaze of red hair, feeling her forehead pressed to mine, hearing my name on Shepard's lips.
