She knows she is going to have to save herself if she wants to get out alive as Angel is suffering the same torture she is.  Once they have been rescued the rest of the book focuses on her recover and picking up the pieces.Once she wakes up in the hospital she is shocked to see who is by her side, Logan.  He has to make a choice, to enable her and prevent her from healing or walk away and let her find the strength to recover on her own.  Even though she hurt him by choosing Angel, he knows he loves her and his heart won’t turn against her.Neva is going to have to face the PTSD and the fact her father died years before.  She has to recover her life, stop letting panic and anxiety rule her world.  She needs to get back to college, find a job, and figure out if she and Logan have a chance.  Logan has to let her go till she is ready to try again, learn to forgive her and also he needs to learn to forgive himself for the choices he makes during this journey.  The author does a brilliant job explaining PTSD in this story with Neva’s therapy sessions.The author gave us Angel’s story, the reason why he was the man he was.  That was one broken soul that was covered by the sexy male faade. I will admit, I hated him in the beginning but by the end of the book my heart broke for him.  Still he had the courage and knowledge that he still loved Neva and he needed to confront her about what he did.This was a good book, it wasn’t the intense edge of your seat read.  The beginning was pretty edgy but as the story progressed there was a healing calm to the story.  I don’t think you would enjoy this one as much if you read it as a standalone book.  You will gain more insight and emotion for these characters if you read Finding You first.Reviewed by Tbird for Crystal’s Many Reviewers*Copy provided for honest review*
