My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I started reading this book on my Kobo app yesterday afternoon, and finished it today. Wow. What a great story! I'd read great things about it... and everything was true!
Jacqueline was recently dumped by her boyfriend after three years. While leaving a Halloween party she didn't want to attend, a guy she knows attacks her in her own truck. But a stranger saves her.
Relieved to have survived the attack, but shaken enough to be overwhelmed by fear, she finally starts to put her life back together. Starting with fixing her economics grade. And that's when she realises that the guy who helped her is actually in her class.
Now that she's noticed him, Lucas seems to be everywhere. And she certainly doesn't mind...
I was hooked into Jacqueline's POV instantly. Her story was honest and raw. Her life has fallen down around her, making her feel like she's made stupid decisions and is now crippled by fear. She feels lost and alone, but soon realises she's not because her friend, Erin, helps her to reclaim her courage. While Lucas helps her trust herself enough to feel safe again.
Also, the attraction between Jacqueline & Lucas was scorching off the pages. Yowza! I loved how these two damaged people found each other. And then helped one another find strength.
I loved this book and the two main characters. I just found out there's a sequel from Lucas's POV. I really need to buy it!
