Summary

Georgina Bailey is starting over. After years of surviving an abusive marriage, she packs up her life-and her nine-year-old twins-and heads across the country to Los Angeles, seeking safety and a fresh start with her sister-in-law. But the farther she gets from her ex, the more she uncovers just how deep his cruelty truly runs. Cole Holoworth has lived through hell. Kidnapped and tortured at sixteen, he's spent the last six years rebuilding his life in pieces. His body is covered in tattoos-not for vanity, but to hide the scars carved into him by another man's darkness. He keeps his distance, avoids touch, and spirals into panic when he loses sight of the world around him. When Georgie and Cole's paths collide, it isn't love at first sight-it's fear, suspicion, and walls built sky-high. But slowly, something starts to shift. In each other, they find quiet understanding... and maybe, the beginnings of something more. Can Georgie see past the ink and the shadows to the man Cole really is? Or will the weight of both their pasts be too much to carry?

Foreword

This book is the second installment in the LA series.

I highly suggest reading Book One, Unspoken, first to better understand the backstory and the characters mentioned throughout this book.

With that said, please enjoy! :)
