Touching Scars by Stacy Borel seriously blew me away. Timber and Kat are an amazing couple and I loved every minute of their story. Heartbreaking, emotional and truly amazing, Touch Scars is one of my favorite reads of the year.Katherine Pierce had an extremely tough time in high school. She was picked on and had to endure an unbearable trauma at such a young age. After graduation, she moved away so she could hide from her past and try to pick back up the pieces of her life. Kat my have changed on the outside, but on the inside, she was still the insecure girl still trying to heal from the scars that she has gained.Timber Nelson was in the popular circle of kids in high school. Not because he had money like the rest of his friends, but because he was good looking and was talented at sports. With limited funds, he joined the Army to get out of his small town. Now, after serving two tours in Iraq, he’s not the man he was when he went in. Timber is suffering from PTSD from his last tour especially.When Timber lands a job at an oil field in a small town a few hours from where he used to live, he is completely caught off guard to see the one girl he felt the need to protect in high school, Katherine Pierce. There is an undeniable attraction between the two, and a safe friendship forms that slowly turns into more. Secrets are revealed between them, and they learn that not all scars are on the surface.The story between Timber and Kat is amazing. The painful past that both of them endured broke my heart completely. The strength that they each possessed was unbelievable and I loved that in their own way, the each wanted to protect and heal the other. Touching Scars is a must read! I wish I could give it more than 5 stars!
