Wow!  What a ride this was!  I was on the edge of my seat, flipping through the pages like a man woman just waiting to see what happened next. I loved every second of it!Mia Lee has had a rough life.  At only 8 years old, she was forced into a life that no one, especially an 8 year old should be a part of. When more is demanded of her, something so heinous she can't even stomach the thought of it, she's forced to take drastic action, an action that has her on the run.With a new name, Paige Cassidy, she's determined to put her past behind her.She ends up in a small town that immediately feels safe.  After befriending an old man, who becomes like a Grandfather to her, she not only finds a place to stay but a job as well.  Shortly after, she ends up friends with a lonely but friendly girl named Tabitha.Soon, Mia finds herself part of a makeshift family.  She's finally starting to not only feel normal but happy.Then there's Quinn.  Quinn makes her feel things that she's never felt before.  Things that scare her but also leave her breathless for more.Will she be able to escape the demons from her past?  Or is the past too powerful?  Will it always have a hold on her?  Will the new family that she's found herself a part of care when they find out who she really is?  What she's really done?This was such a great book.  The characters are so genuine and real. I felt myself thinking I was a part of their little family as I read - and it felt good!  I cannot wait for the next one!This is the first that I've read of Monica James but it will not be my last - I already added her other books to my TBR pile and will be reading them as soon as possible!5 stars all the way!
