I absolutely enjoy Heather London's novels. Her stories manage to pull my emotions right out of me. Whether it's those biting my nails intense moments, sighing with happiness or wanting to curl into a ball and cry, gets me every time and I love it. This novel had plenty of tension, danger, sadness, romance and hope for new beginnings. It definitely reminded me of the movie, Sleeping With The Enemy with Julia Roberts.Emily is a young woman who has escaped a painful life in Las Vegas. The man (Jake) she thought she knew had changed into someone frighteningly different. She heads to New York for a fresh start. Even with thousands of miles away she can't rid herself of the constant fear, the nightmares, and anxiety. My heart went out Emily for what she went through, but I was proud of how strong and determined she was to not let those things rule her life."Then a little voice entered my head, telling me that I was stronger than this. That I didn't have to be afraid. I could do this. I could protect myself. I promised myself that I wouldn't allow Jake to rule my life anymore." ~ EmilyThen there is Reed Alexander, who enters Emily's life when he wants to hire her as an event planner. From the moment they meet their is a connection between the two that is undeniable. Reed was wealthy, gorgeous and attracted the attention of many, but underneath all of that was a sensitive soul just like Emily. He was truly perfect for her. Another couple that I adored was Brandon and Lexi (Reed's sister). The ending had a few surprising twists, but everything ended on a very happy note with the characters.
