SUMMARY
Ella Walker, still suffering from issues
of mental abuse, turns twenty-one and meets the man of her dreams. Can
she break the bonds of her emotional prison and be the woman he
desires? As an aspiring romance author, Ella struggles to find
passion in her work. When Adam Bianci, the gorgeous Italian billionaire
appears in her life, he lights up her drab existence. She’s
determined not to let him slip through her grasp. But will his secrets and
the tangled web of his own abuse keep them apart?
EXCERPT
Ella
looked away, then back, for verification he was real. Sitting some distance
from her, he didn’t move. Not even a twitch. Possibly, he didn’t see her. She
stared unable to look away, afraid he’d vanish if she didn’t keep her eyes on
him. If she’d thought he was handsome before, he was even more so that morning.
In the
pale orange light of the sun, just barely burning over the horizon, his lightly
bronzed skin shone. His hair was a golden brown, and though he wasn’t looking
her way, she remembered that his eyes were golden amber. She’d looked into them
one time, the one time that he’d held her, saved her. He’d looked at her when
he’d slid her off his back, and she’d never, ever forget those eyes. The light
flattered him. He looked golden, gorgeous and golden, that’s how she’d describe
him.
She
should go over. Thank him for the other day. Dreadful shyness took her, and she
could not will her body to move. She knew if she did manage to walk over, and
by some remote chance attempt to thank him, she’d freeze up. She just knew it.
Social graces were not high on her list. People often thought she was stuck-up,
not knowing that her silence was shyness.
If she
didn’t move now, she might lose her chance. Yet despite her great need to say
something to get his attention, she was riveted to the spot. Just staring. He
didn’t give any sign he noticed her, and it occurred to Ella that he didn’t
like her. He’d felt compelled to save her, but he’d rather not have anything to
do with her.
