Amazing! When I stumbled upon still beating randomly, I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it! Lotus was no different! The author has an incredible way of taking such awful circumstances and writing them in such an incredible way. It’s hard to read at times, but so well written that you just can’t put the book down. I was hooked from the beginning and couldn’t wait to see what happened. It was sad and sick and twisted, but beautiful at times too! So good!

Olivier Linch cu Sydney 
 Capturat pentru 20 de ani și ținut într-un subsol pentru a fi protejat de cel care i-a ordonat moartea, tatăl lui vitreg. Violatorul lui Clementine, timp de 6 ani, încă de la vârsta de 10 ani. 
LOTUS abreviatiile numelor lor, reprezentând salvarea facultăților lui mentale cat timp a stat ascuns sub pământ, crezând că lumea din exterior nu mai există.

WOW is all I really have to say. I really loved this book! There was a sweet and innocent love story among some really awful things going on in this book and it was a perfect mixture for a beautiful story. Sydney and Oliver were childhood best friends until one day Oliver went missing. When Oliver is found 20+ years later Sydney is so excited. But things have changed since that horrible day. It was truly beautiful to see how they both struggled due to being away from each other and then needed each other to make things better. And the story related to Oliver’s kidnapping? Holy hell! It was shocking and emotional.

A little cheesy in places, but hard to put down with a lot of complex storylines outside of the central romance.

I loved Still Beating by Jennifer Hartmann, this one was just not my jam. The way the male love interest would talk about the woman was just so annoying for me
