Blurb:
Annabelle Spencer's life is every girl's dream. She has wonderful parents, great friends, and of course the perfect boyfriend, Jack Roberts. That all changes on her sixteenth birthday when her life comes crashing down around her. Her dream night turns into a nightmare when Jack is murdered right in front of her, and she's kidnapped by his murderer, Carter Thomas, a big time drug and arms dealer. After ten months of being with Carter, she's found, but the experience has totally changed her. She's no longer the happy-go-lucky girl that everyone used to know and love; she's now cold, hard and suffers from night terrors. It appears that Carter broke not only her body, but her spirit too. A shadow of her former self, her slogan for life is now: 'If you don't care about anything, then you have nothing to lose'. Carter is currently serving time for the murder of Jack, a conviction that Anna helped secure. But his retrial is coming up because some key evidence appears to have been tampered with. Unbeknown to Anna, death threats are being received by her father, the Senator. It appears that Carter is still interested in Anna and will stop at nothing to get her back. Ashton Taylor is brought in to protect her. He's a newly qualified SWAT agent, a bright spark, the agency's new golden boy. He is assigned undercover, posing as her boyfriend. His job is to help her through college and keep her safe until the end of the trial in eight months' time.
My two-cent:
I read Enjoying the Chase first. The sequel to this one and honestly I didn't care about this one at all. The Aftermath? the ending for this book was ruined for me and I was kicking myself for not reading this sooner. HOW COULD I NOT HAVE READ THIS??!! This is definitely one of my favorite. I liked the story built in this one - the plot twist was amazing, the characters and their development. I adored Anna and Ashton. Anna was a strong character. I admire her a lot. One of my favorite female characters honestly because despite all the things she went through, she didn't hide and drown herself in self pity. The author really knows how to keep the readers attention hooked to the book. Even after all these years, I can still recall the words and scenes. Ah this piece brings nostalgic feeling. I read this a day before my Biology midterm. Aww man good times good times! :D
