Okay first thing first!!!! Bravo to the Author who went out on the edge to tackle domestic violence, not only tackle it but she nailed it. She hit all aspects and feelings that go along with being in a violent relationship.
which we need more spotlights on the subject like this!
Now just some needs before you read this book, just my opinion, lol 1); Tissue such as Puffs, so husband doesn't come home for lunch and feel there was a family tragedy.For the good, happy moments and sad touching ,caring moments.
I would also suggest a pair of nail clippers so that while you're at the edge of your seat wanting to scream biting your nails you can just clip that hang nail off.
The integration of the Authors books is wonderful,but it's not necessary for you to read in order or the other books ( but you would be missing out) The way the author wrote this book, has a way of standing out on it's own. Even with her bringing in other characters from the first book.
Now to my review so I like Kayla I liked her independence her standing out I loved the way the Story was written so realistic, the start of the story really grabbed a hold of me not wanting me to put it down.
The book was based around an abuser a woman a child and the man on the Whitehorse though he really wasn't on a white horse LOL. The book was emotionally charged and so realistic the author really did her homework. It's a suspense romance which will have you on the edge of your seat that I can promise.
I want to say so much more about the book because it was just so good, which is on my read again list but I don't want to give any spoilers away.
Without giving a spoiler it it's based around a woman in a domestic violence situation,A controlling man a little boy who has seen more, in his short life than most people see in their whole life. And there is a community and a man who rallies around a new environment for this family to grow, and show Little Eli what a family is about. ( I loved the important object that Kayla made sure to grab for her son, I felt it was seen as getting their life back)
There is a twist one person felt he didn't need anything and realize she needed everything.
I had goosebumps reading this book because it hit deep.
When I left my first husband which was the most violence nightmare ( he was at the time was military intelligence, and would state to Me,( also sending night vision goggles,which only military owned,to impact the NO, matter where you go or what you do I am able to find YOU)
. I literally left with the clothes on my back and my daughters back six dollars in my pocket and I did the train of helpers( like in the book) getting me back from Hawaii to Pennsylvania and then hiding me, and forming a protection around me. Also ensuring they would go to all ends to see this through and kept us safe. So the book had my heartstrings at the very beginning.
So thank you Rosalind for going I hope everyone reads this book gets out of it what I did. It was an absolutely wonderful suspenseful romance, love in the afternoon still exist and boy do I wish my story was like that LOL meaning Kayla and the romantic interest and Savior. I already cannot wait for the next book so stop reading this review please start writing.lol j.k
All kidding aside I am a huge reader, as if you could not tell by my goodreads, my audible, and my library.
I used to have authors who no matter what they put out,were always my number one authors.
I will tell you that with Age, book clubs, suggestions and the groups I belong to. I have changed my mind set and what I look for in a book. I also will say that those authors are still my favorites. But The different kind of books that I'm reading I have fallen in complete love with other Authors writing skills.
Rosalind James being one of them. She has the ability to pull the realism out in her books versus the Harlequin feeling.
I wish I could give 10 stars to this book ( maybe because it was so relatable.)
I love all of her books that she has written so far, but this has to be my favorite.
Take a chance it's an easy quick read and I say that because it rolls so smooth and the writing is done so well,
before you know it, you will be seeing the words THE END!
waiting for her next book to be released!!!!
