Clay ran from his family, his career.

From every dream he ever had.

*Carla’s Four Star Review

Ever since she met Brooks, the wolf in sheep’s clothing, Andi has been living her own personal nightmare. As she sees the darkness in his eyes grow stronger each day, Andi realizes that if she doesn’t leave now, she is going to end up dead. With the help of her best friend, Camille, Andi ends up on a train headed to Philadelphia with a new identity and the hope for a better life. While on the train, she meets Adrian, and she soon learns that he is running from his own demons as well. When fate intervenes, these two live through a tragic situation that instantly bonds them together. What follows is a story of love, acceptance, courage, and strength.

Andi and Adrian are both awesome characters who display a lot of strength in times of adversity. They are truly devoted to one another, and when one experiences a moment (or several moments) of weakness, the other is right there to lift them up and offer much needed encouragement. In this amazing story, Marni Mann and Gia Riley have come together to create a story that shines a much needed light on domestic abuse. While there are some scenes in this book that are quite graphic and raw, the overall message of hope shines through. Kudos to these outstanding authors for creating such a powerful and heartfelt read!

Renee’s 4 Star Review:

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
Clay ran form everything. His family, his career and every dream he ever had. He ran until he crashed. And escaped the darkness. The screams, fist, the pain thst knocked her down. She ran until she was thrown. These two are brought together by the darkness and deceit. They only have each other. The freedom they want so baldy comes with a price. The second they stop running they will drown.
Drowning is a angst filled emotional review. Andi is stuck in a life thst no one would ever want. Escaping is her onky choice. If she doesn’t the darkness in Brooks is going to eat her alive and possibly kill her. Clay ran from everything and became invisible. When fate intervenes these two lost souls are drawn together. it makes for an intense and emotional read. These two characters are so devoted to each other and I loved that devotion. One lifts the other and back and forth so they do not drown. It’s a connection that is quite beautiful.
This book does deal with domestic violence if you sensitive to such situations I just wanted you to be aware before diving into this book. It’s a book of hope though thzt is awfully powerful and beautiful to read.
