Again another 'can't put it down' story from Terry. Although to be honest it didn't start that way, as it didn't instantly grab me. Keep with it, trust me. Terry weaves her magic and you are routing for both characters, Sid and Elijah. Elijah being a character who has issues comes to the rescue of Sidney, a successful actress. This isn't their first meeting. Unbeknown to Sid, Elijah has been keeping a close eye on Sidney for many years, following her career and taking every opportunity at publicity events to meet her. Their paths cross that fateful night when Elijah rescues Sid from a disturbing event which then leads onto an electric relationship which allows Elijah to confront his demons and forget the past which has been dark and dangerous. Fab read and can't wait to read more from this author.

This book read like a light romantic comedy but was anything but. It touches on bullying, addiction, suicide, prostitution, rape, kidnapping, cheating, Hollywood, and best of all, love.

Elijah has got to be sweetest, most considerate and caring killer-for-hire ever! As he states, he doesn't kill 'normal' people. He's a vigilante, eradicating the scum of the Earth for profit. A good guy. A hero even lol. Honestly, he made the book for me. I loved him!! When the book flashes back to show the connection between him and Sidney, my heart just about broke for him. What he went through no one should ever have to endure. Unfortunately that is the fate of many of our young children today. The author did a great job of writing about his journey in a truly sensitive way.

I would not mind reading more from this author if I could find characters with the same greatness of spirit that Elijah exhibited here.
