Mike Jameson had a tragedy after tragedy happened to him, and due to those he became an emotional recluse. His life consist of work, a band he plays with occasionally and his beloved dog.Sheridan Nichols is running away from the only life she knew, a life with an abusive partner and a secret that she's kept from him.When Mike and Sheridan's lives collide, the attraction is instantaneous but they're both apprehensive to enter into a relationship. Sometimes though, you just can't avoid what life throws at you.These two are an emotional mess, both dealing with their own demons, but at the same time giving each other the comfort and the affection that they so need.I have to say that Mike's story broke my heart, I truly felt for the guy, and don't know how a person can survive what happened to him.I love that Amber portrayed Sheridan as a strong character. Yes, she was a victim at one point in her life, but she put her big girl panties on and got out of the situation in order to live a better life. Most books have women as somewhat weak and dependent on the male character so it's refreshing to see a woman standing up for herself.All and all this is a very enjoyable book with very likeable characters, even though Amber raise awareness on some serious issues, there are moment that would make you laugh.Truly an enjoyable read. Well done Amber!
