Let me start off by saying I read two pages of this book and put it down.  I wasn't going to read another page because it began with a subject that really disturbs me.  Having said that, a friend encouraged me to continue reading past that part and I took her advice.  Holy blooming cow!  Talk about throwing away all cookie cutter notions behind books, Number Thirteen needs to have its very own category.  What you think you're going to be reading is some abusive jerk who gets his kicks from hurting women, that's not what you get.Without giving spoilers, I can only say that this book reached into my heart and tugged at every emotion I could have and had me ready to scream at times.  I cringed, I cried, I almost threw my kindle across the room, but in the end?  I got it.  And when I got it, let's just say that I fell in love with William.  This book is a very emotional read, especially for anyone who's suffered abuse at another persons hands.  It's going to hit some spots, so just get ready for that.When a book can make me run the gamut of emotions and make me angry enough to bring out my protective instincts for the characters, that's a book I will never forget.  This is one of those books.  It's not a love story but it is. I really can't begin to explain to you how this book should be labeled, and believe me that's a first.  I just know it's a book that should be read.
