Fiction. Romance. Suspense. HTML: Street artist Jade remembers little of her childhood except for the time she spent under the ruthless control of a cult leader, a time marked by terrible abuse and suffering. For the fifteen years since she escaped his grasp, she has survived by living on the streets and never putting down roots. Ex-cop Luke Kelly knows his friend Sam Cochrane wants nothing more than to find his daughter, Jade, who was taken from him as a child. So Luke uses all his connections to make that happen, not knowing that by reuniting Jade with her father he is exposing her to a deadly peril. In the healing embrace of her father's home, Jade--with Luke's loving help--begins to put fear behind her. But somewhere in the darkness, a man is prepared to kill rather than let Jade reveal the secrets of her childhood. And when her story makes the national news, that someone finally knows where to find her. .… (plus d'informations)

My second reading of this book. I liked it although it is uncomfortable in spots. The heroine has the most horrific childhood of any heroine I've EVER read. Solving the mystery part was interesting how they went about it. I appreciated the choice the author made to have the authorities actually carry out the arrests etc., instead of the hero/heroine involved in every little bit of it. It seemed more realistic that way. Although, they had a definite hand in it and the hero did involve himself in questioning the bad guys. The heroine started to overcome her past with the help of the hero. I wasn't sure about this as her past was so horrific but on the other hand, it was 12 years in the past and she started seeing a psychologist during the story. The hero fell in love pretty fast and I could have used a little more background on him but his wasn't really the focus of the story so I guess I can forgive that.

All in all I recommend this. (

This is one of Sala's better novels because the main characters don't immediately fall in love, unlike some of her other books. (

An edge of the seat read all the way through. A real problem in society that makes everyone sick. Sharon Sala was brave to take it on. A heavy read but very well written. (
