This is a great debut novel from author Faith S Lynn. Entertaining, enthralling, and sensual.Katrina “Kat” Brown seems like just a typical young woman when in reality she’s anything but. A history major in college, lives with her 2 best friends, she’s perfected the faade of normal.  She wears a mask and she is very careful about what she reveals to others.“The world is peaceful when you’re just getting glimpses here and there, but the truth is the darkness is out there, everyone just ignores it.”Kat cannot ignore the darkness. She lives in darkness, created by memories of the past. She ran away, changed her name, and has no intention of ever looking back.Ryder is “the epitome of the nice guy”. He has amazing green eyes, a ripped stomach, and arms covered in tattoos. He has the ability to make any girl swoon, but he has his eyes set on Kat.“Could I date him without him ever noticing that I am not 100% here?”Is she done letting her past haunt her? Can she open herself up to another and let herself fall in love?What happens when she is discovered? When an unknown stranger comes into town and starts asking questions. Will she succumb to the need to get her story out? To let go of the pain, once and for all? Even though it might cost her the one thing that makes her truly happy?“They say getting closure from the past, no matter the issue, helps release the demons that hang over your head.”This is a heartwarming story about a very strong woman with a dark past.  She’s unable to end it, but not sure if she can get past her demons. The supporting characters are great and really add to the story. I would definitely recommend this story to anyone who enjoys the darker Young Adult genre.
