Cleo is a waitress, who was kidnapped and raped, she's still trying to recover and deal with everything. She may feel broken but she has a core of strength.

Rage's sister committed suicide after being kidnapped and raped and knowing what Cleo went through he couldn't bear to see her in pain and left her to deal with everything alone. Knowing Cleo also tried to kill herself gutted him, but he's determined to right his wrongs and have her back in his life permanently.

As horrific as Cleo's rape and torture was, the beauty of watching Rage help her come back to herself and to him was heartwarming to read.

The angst of the mysterious stalker just didn't work well for me. It felt tacked on, unnecessary and there were lots of realism issues that I felt detracted from Rage and Cleo's story. Which is a contrast to how real and raw it felt reading about what happened to Cleo and her path to recovery.

I received a free copy of this book and I'm voluntarily leaving a review. If you like my reviews I hope you will follow my blog. https://wyldheartreads.wordpress.com/
