I was plagued by the ghosts of my past, too broken to be worthy of a happily ever after. But then I met Magnus Grant. He broke through the walls I've built and filled that missing piece of my fractured soul. I fell for him, and I fell hard. Until I realized it was all a lie. Because of him, my terrible past finally caught up with me.
And now, I feel like I'm being watched.
If I were the same person that I was seven years ago, my first instinct would be to run, to stay hidden. But that person is long gone. I decided to stay for the sake of my son, to reclaim the life stolen from me all those years ago. And I'm using my own scars as armor.
But no armor can protect me from Magnus. He is repentant but also relentless in his pursuit to reclaim me back in his life. And this scares me the most because I know that without him, I'd feel broken all over again.
I want to forgive Magnus, but forgetting doesn't come that easy. If I give him another chance, will I risk losing everything that I have left, or regain everything that I have lost?

Since I was a little girl, I've been in love with books and storytelling. One of my fondest memories as a child, is spending hours in a cafe or restaurant with my mum, people-watching and making up interesting stories about their lives.
Now I'm all grown up. I married a beautiful man, raising two wonderful children together while balancing a career in finance. Yes, I'm living my very own happily ever after!
But the love of storytelling never left me. So I put my fingers to keyboard and started my journey. Now, I'm about to publish my very first novel, with the second and last book of the series all done and just waiting to be tweaked. And did I mention I have a whole stack of other book ideas waiting to be written?

I
received this ARC for an honest review...
I
met this author at the Sydney Author Event in November and she asked me if I
would be interested in reading and reviewing her books. I happily agreed and
read her debut novel Autumn Falls which I thoroughly enjoyed and was anxious to
read the conclusion to her series. I wasn’t disappointed.
This
was the sequel and conclusion to the story of multi-millionaire Magnus Grant
and Isabelle (call me Billie) Morrison.
You must read Autumn Falls first as this book continues where the
previous one finishes.
Billie
is devastated and hurt by Magnus's betrayal. Throw in an ex-wife (Martine) who
simply put is a bitch, Billie's ex (Cooper) who hurt Billie immeasurably and to
say a roller coaster awaits is an understatement.
Billie
does what she does best, she runs to ensure she keeps her and her son
protected. She is so confused and hurt. She doesn't know what to believe
anymore. She doubts herself and no longer trusts Magnus. However, Billie is in
trouble, now that Cooper has found her, she is in danger and so is her son
Ethan. Magnus hires Jacob to follow and keep Billie safe (of course he doesn't
tell Billie).
Eventually
Billie and Magnus reconcile, but the danger and in some ways miscommunication
continues. The mystery and intrigue build throughout the book and I have to say
I was pleased with how the story panned out. I also like that the epilogue tied
up the loose ends. I hate when a book ends and you are left to wonder
"what happened".
As
I said in reviewing Autumn Falls, the characters and plot are interesting and
this book was no different.
I
thoroughly enjoyed this series and I eagerly await any releases by E.S. Maria
