Barely...
If you call abuse, counted as property and tortured to no end surviving then that was what she did…survived. Her life was spared, but at what cost. Long ago Harper had died. Today, due to those decisions she made, she is left existing with no choice to do anything else. Staring the devil in the face daily for as long as she did, left its mark and pain behind for her to live with forever.
The pain of that survival scars her deeper than any physical wound she's ever received.
Harper is finally living a better life and has a great business, friends, and a home finally her own. She will do anything to keep her past hidden, including jeopardizing her only chance at love and a truly good man.
Breccan Caldwell is everything Harper doesn't deserve. He's gorgeous, successful, caring and a true gentleman.
Can Breccan show Harper who she truly is? Or will he be pushed out by the darkness she allows herself to be consumed with?
First off if you cannot handle a book where there is abuse and rape then this book may not be for you.
FIVE STARS PLUS 25 MORE
For the past ten years Harper has rebuilt her life. She had been abused by her foster father and then she ran away at the age of fifteen and got forced into prostitution. She was further abused in the worst way imaginable. She knew if she left she would be killed. Living that life for 5 more years and having the shit beat out of you and raped even more has left Harper dead. She is just living knowing that this is it for her.
Her savior Nikko finds her. Nikko had been looking for Harper for a long time. He gets her out of that life and gives her her inheritance that she knew nothing about.
Nikko becomes a father figure to Harper and helps her get back on her feet and covers up her past. There are still people out there that could harm her. Harper has a very successful business and is a little bit of a shoe whore. She has a great staff and two best friends Brynn and Avery. Harper is content with her life and knows that she deserves nothing more.
Breccan Caldwell walks into her bar one day and throws her off her feet. She is taken by this Adonis. He is beautiful caring and just too good for her. She does not deserve any of it. She has moved on from her past but knows that true happiness is not in the cards for her. You don't get that once you lived the life that she has.
I love Breccan, he is sometimes not so patient with Harper but he tries to show her that she is worthy of being loved and having someone in her life. He knows that she is broken but he will make her happy. They both fall in love yet neither will say it. They each have there reasons Harper does not think she deserves it and Breccan knows she is not ready to hear it.
"Dove". Breccan whispers. "You are the most beautiful creature to ever my life. Your soul. God, it's almost like I can feel it touching mine.
I am very torn over this book. Harper finally becomes happy and meets his family and she loves him even more as they accept her. She feels the love but has a hard time accept that he loves her and she is deserving.
In the end Harper knows that she can not give him a future. Its to dangerous she loves him but must protect him from those that can come back and hurt her. They could possibly hurt him and she would never recover from that.
I loved this book I can not wait for the next one. My heart broke a little over the ending but I just know it will get better. So to those that don't like cliffhangers, get over it and read this book anyways.
