[...]Ms. Larsen offered this book up as an arc in exchange for an honest review.The writing style was well done enough for me to immerse myself into the story and it hooked my attention from the start.30 Days by K. Larsen is a semi-short novel that ends on a wicked cliff hanger. It follows Elle Darling on her road to recovery from a failed suicide attempt while trying to leave her verbally abusive husband.Life hadn't been going all that great for her and after driving her car into a tree to end it all, she wakes up in the hospital forced to undergo 8 months of physical and psychological therapy. She does somehow manage to escape her prison, taking a list she complied of things to do alone and complete in 30 days.Fleeing her troubles, Elle finds a place to lay low and meets Collin who feels an instant connection and wants to help her do the tasks on her list. Things like take a cooking class and bungee jump. Elle tries to keep Collin at arms length, but it's hard for her to not lose her heart to him.I really fell for sweetheart Collin. He knew all the right things to do to help his fragile love find the strength to stand for herself with his un-oppressing and comforting guidance.The only thing I found frustrating with Ms. Larsen's book was the major cliff hanger. But rest assured, the sequel is available :)I'm looking forward to reading it so I can see how Collin and Elle pull through the hardships.I give is 4 out of 5 Olives.[...]
