Recommendation
Loved this debut book by Kira Berger, The story follows Alex who has been through hardships in life and the struggle she has with letting Duncan in. Their interactions feel real and natural. He knows what he wants and he pursues it with no hesitation and I adored that about him. I will admit, I usually am pretty good at spotting a plot twist coming but this one got me! The story has a suspenseful undertone and the emotion involved gets pretty heavy at times but I found myself immersed in this book, beginning to end. A great debut from Kira Berger!
Excerpts
No man should be allowed to have eyes like this; they’re too dangerous to the female population. And I have no doubt he knows it, too.
“He gently cups my cheek and stares deep into my eyes before he completely rocks my world. “You’re mine. Always and forever.”
With nothing else to say, I whisper, “Okay.”
You’re the one illuminating all the dark places inside of me. You’re the reason why I can finally see past the darkness that eclipsed my existence for so long.
Publisher synopsis
One bad decision changed my life irrevocably.
One night shattered it completely.
Moving to another country was supposed to be a fresh start for me, an escape from my past. A way to heal and live my life. I promised them to find happiness. What I wasn’t supposed to find was him. Dark, handsome, and irresistible.
He wasn’t supposed to break through the walls around my heart. But I wasn’t strong enough to resist.
For a minute, I was happy. But the clutches of my past will never let me go. The evil shrouding my past in darkness has finally found me.
I need to fight it—for him and them. Even if that means letting go of the light.
