Tiffany has a reader question for us, and I *think* I have the answer. It’s not much detail (so it could be a totally different book), but the book I read starts off exactly like this!
She asks:
I can’t remember the name of a book. I read it along time ago.
It was a dark read about a woman being held captive as a sex slave and escapes by hiding in the H’s car when he’s leaving from making a deal with her capture.
I want to read it again but I can’t remember the name of fine it.
Please help me.
Absolutely, Tiffany! My guess is that you’re looking for Killing Sarai (In the Company of Killers Book 1) by J.A. Redmerski (and here’s my book review) 😀
Anyone have a different guess?
Robyn: Yep! Killing Sarai. Loved this whole series and can’t wait for the next book.
Donna: The Mafia And His Angel?
Nikki: I definitely agree it has to be Killing Sarai! J. A. Redmerski is one of my favorites!
Val: Yes! What she said. Such a great series.
Tiffany: Thank you for posting and finding this book for me. It was starting to drive me crazy! Your blog is awesome:) I love to read and sometimes its hard to find new books. I have used some of your lists to give me ideas on books to read. And, I have not been disappointed yet!
Maryse: YAY!!!! So glad to be able to help out, Tiffany!!! 😀 *hug*
Yep! Killing Sarai. Loved this whole series and can’t wait for the next book.
I’m back again hoping some new people will look at the post and help with a book I’ve been looking for so long!
The details that I remember-
The heroine’s name could be Echo though I’m not completely sure.
The h lives with her father and stepmother who physically abuse her. She is bullied in school because of the clothes she wears and her timid nature. The bullying at the school gets bad. The H who goes to the same school also says mean things to her like ‘Why does she even bother living and she should die’ something along this line. It becomes too much for the h to handle so decides to commit suicide but H sees her and the h tells him about her family life and the H feels very guilty. The H saves the h from the suicide attempt. The h is then admitted to the hospital where her father and stepmother lie about her injuries saying that those are self inflicted. They then try to kill her but some nurse I think catches them at the right time and then they are jailed. I think after this there is a time leap and we see H in college. The H is a part of anti-bullying initiative in college because of what happened with the h and the guilt he feels. He sees the h in his college and then they become friends and later start dating each other.
This book is not Reason to Breathe, Heart on a Chain, Scars of My Past or Pushing the Limits
