Meredith Walters tells the story of a troubled young woman and the unforgettable guy who teaches her to live—and love—to the fullest. She’s waiting to die. . . . Corin Thompson is paralyzed by her obsession with mortality. Having lost both of her parents, she is terrified by the idea that she too will die young, and she loses control at any sign of illness. But when Corin connects with someone who has survived a very real brush with death, she begins to see the world in a whole new way. He’s learning to live. . . .

With every word she sets to paper, she successfully injects sensitivity and humanity to the story at hand. Thus, her knack for tackling difficult subjects should be applauded. In this regard, “Butterfly Wings” is no exception. Yet overall, I found the story to be good but somewhat disappointing.Corin Thompson is the owner of Razzle Dazzle pottery shop. She is also a hypochondriac that suffers from extreme anxiety and panic attacks. Having never properly grieved the death of her parents, her anguish manifests itself in the form of non-existent ailments. Convinced that she suffers from a deadly heart condition, Corin decides to join a support group called Mended Hearts.Enter Becket Kingsley. At only 28 years old, Beckett suffered a near-fatal heart attack as a result of a previously undetected, genetic heart condition. The once vibrantly active Beckett LITERALLY had his world turned upside down. But with a positive attitude and the help of his friends at Mended Hearts, Beckett is learning to enjoy life and to appreciate each moment as it comes.When Corin arrives at Mended Hearts, both she and Beckett are surprised to discover that they have actually met before. During one of Corin’s panic attacks weeks earlier, Beckett was the stranger on the street that assisted her during the attack. For Corin, it was an embarrassing incident she’d rather forget. But over the ensuing weeks, Beckett hadn’t been able to put thoughts of Corin out of his mind. So for him, Corin’s unexpected arrival at Mended Hearts was an opportunity he couldn’t pass up.Initial interactions between Corin and Beckett are awkward at best. But Beckett is determined to break down Corin’s walls by slowly immersing himself into her life. Corin’s abrasive attitude and brutally upfront personality is refreshing to Beckett. And Corin seems to understand him in ways that his friends and family can’t.Fearful of losing another person close to her, Corin is determined to hold Beckett at a distance. But Beckett is nothing if not persistent. His desire to keep Corin in his life means convincing her to take a chance—a chance on life, a chance on love, and a chance on them. She needs to stop worrying about the possibility of death and simply focus on the here and now.“Butterfly Dreams” is a good solid story, but not a great one. I wanted to love it—I really did. But I had a very hard time getting into the story and an even harder time connecting with Corin. While on a personal level, I was able to relate to the character’s anxiety issues and panic attacks, I found Corin’s constant rude and anti-social behavior to be off putting. Add to that her persistent negativity and refusal to accept help, and I found little to no reason for Beckett to want to stick around. While some might say Corin’s personality is quirky, I just found it to be annoying.On the flip side, however, I ABSOLUTELY, 100%, FELL IN LOVE WITH BECKETT!! Despite having had his entire world turned upside down, Beckett was determined to live for the moment and to take joy in the fact that he was still very much alive. I marveled at his upbeat personality, chuckled at his humor, and swooned at his romantic words. But I DIDN’T feel the connection between him and Corin—in OR out of the bedroom. And that, especially, was a big issue for me.As a reader, I accepted Corin into Beckett’s life, because she seemed to make him happy. Why, I’m not quite sure. Corin seemed a bit too self-absorbed for my liking. Aside from encouraging Beckett to pursue his photography, their relationship often appeared one-sided. Even when Beckett should have been angry with Corin—when he should have felt deceived; lied to—he chose to forgive rather than confront. While admiral, in theory, real life doesn’t quite work like that. Whatever happened to accountability for one’s actions? Yes, I can understand the REASONS behind Corin’s actions, but it certainly doesn’t EXCUSE them. And while Corin did finally came around by the end, for me, it was a case of “too little too late.”Even more confusing to me than Corin and Beckett’s relationship is Corin’s relationship with her friend/business partner Adam. I found the whole side story to be odd, incomplete and generally unnecessary.While it truly pains me not to be able to give “Butterfly Dreams” a glowing endorsement, I feel I must be totally honest in my assessment. Perhaps real life experience has jaded me to the frailties in Corin’s personality and other readers will be able to look upon Corin’s character with more compassionate eyes. I sincerely hope this is the case. But whether you fall in love with “Butterfly Dreams” or not, there is one important message that I hope we can all take away from Corin and Beckett’s story—a message we should ALL take to heart… regardless of what life throws at you, take joy in simply being alive.

By Book Freak [cha] "Laugh with me.Dance with me.Smile with me.Love with me.Live with me."The butterflies never ceased fluttering in my stomach.I was crossing my fingers.I was holding my breath.I was reading really slow - because her words warranted it.It was like I was going to miss something if I hurried myself into it.So there I was, grasping my reader tightly with those f!@$% butterflies in my stomach that couldn't stop fluttering.Ms. A. Meredith Walters, I felt my heart stopped. My breathing hitched...I never felt so much relief. OMG.The butterflies followed me in my dreams.This was such a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful read.I just can't recommend it enough.What happens when a girl who thinks she’s dying meets a man who is just learning how to live?Are your hearts ready? Because this is not your ordinary sappy romance novel. Oh no, fellow readers, this one is far more complex than that. Yes, it has those cheesy moments that can melt hearts, it has some sprinkle of steam into it, but more than that, the overall effect of the book on me was like an eye-opener, an inspiration to those who are losing hope, and to those who can’t let go of their past. It’s time to stop and smell the flowers. It’s time to live."Seconds. Minutes. Days. Look at the bigger picture and embrace whatever time you have. Don’t look constantly toward the end. Enjoy the right now."There were times when I get frustrated because Corin was so wrapped up with herself and her mortality that she’s forgetting to live. She had lost so much at a young age, and she was afraid she’d die young. Her parents died when she was still in her teens and she had been the one to take care of them. She is experiencing panic attacks and anxiety and frets over little things that she thought could trigger her health to spiral downwards. She goes doctor shopping and gets angry when the doctors would assure her there’s nothing wrong with her. Some people would be glad to hear it, but her? Ugh."I think that you’re so scared of dying that you’ve forgotten what it’s like to live."But him? He wasn’t perfect. Beck did the whole grief thing when he was recovering, but he passed through it. It was difficult knowing he couldn’t do the things he love anymore. But I love his new outlook in life, it was inspiring. He was living and embracing his life one moment at a time.Most people do have baggage, and these two has a lot on their back. The girl who couldn’t grieve properly and couldn’t let go of her past and the man who had grieved his past life and is trying to move on. I thought it would have been a disaster for this two to meet. That it would have been unhealthy for them to be together, but I was wrong. They were meant for each other. He was good for her. They make each other feel so much than they could have ever imagine. So yes, I was wrong. They were pretty good for each other. She was the damsel in distress, and he was her prince charming."Because the way I feel when I’m around you is crazy. It’s out of control. I just want to touch you. I want to be with you. All. The. Time."They are the most unlikely couple, but they made it work. The chemistry and affection was there. And just when they were just beginning to live their HEA, something happened. Something that made my heart stopped, I couldn’t stop reading! It was painful, excruciating and I was about to lose hope of an HEA that both of them desperately deserved. Will fate give them a chance?Well-written, perfectly-paced and emotion-filled read. Butterfly Dreams is the kind of book that will take you into an emotional journey and give you the unexpected.10 REASONS WHY I LOVE THIS BOOK:1. It’s A. Meredith Walters, so this has to be really good!2. THE FEELS!!!! Rollercoaster intensity of emotions that would keep you on your seats.3. It’s different. Romantic, sweet, a sprinkle of steam (but not a lot) but nevertheless, it’s an amazing read.4. It’s about life and second chances.5. It’s about living your life to the fullest.6. It’s about letting go of the pain of your past and embracing the present.7. It’s about the power of love, and how it can change almost everything.8. Miracles do happen.9, Happy ending. ß I almost wasn’t sure of this.10. It’s beautiful. The WORDS, omg, THE WORDS!!!!!
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Very, very special By Suze Lavender Corin has lost both of her parents while she was still a teenager. Now that she's an adult she's still struggling with the consequences of that terrible loss. She's afraid of death and thinks something bad will happen to her. When she meets Beckett, a man who has a heart disease, who is trying to be positive and keep on living his life to the fullest, something changes. Both Beckett and Corin have to deal with their mortality in a completely different way and they find comfort with each other. They don't know what the future will have in store for them, but they're trying to make the most of the present...Butterfly Dreams is a beautiful story about a difficult topic, mortality. A. Meredith Walters has described this in such a tender and compassionate way, I loved that. Corin and Beckett's direct communication and jokes are the perfect counterpart which makes the story balanced and complete. Corin's issues are mainly psychological and Beckett's are physical. They support one another and complement each other. They are both admirable people. I liked them immediately and was touched by their story.I read this book with a smile on my face, but also with tears in my eyes. Butterfly Dreams is a story that makes the reader feel and think a lot. I like how important questions about life and living are being raised and how both of the main characters are trying to find their own answers to them. Corin and Beckett are beautiful people. This book can certainly be judged by its cover, it's as amazing on the inside as it is on the outside. Butterfly Dreams is moving, hopeful, realistic and very, very special.
