More info: Goodreads
He’s twenty-four. She’s eighteen.
His life is exactly the way he’s always wanted it to be...stable.
She’s quite possibly the very definition of unstable.
Noah saved her. Georgina never wanted to be saved.
Growing up, Noah Clark was passed from one relative to the next until he finally ended up living with his abusive, alcoholic uncle in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina. Thanks in part to the unwavering love and support of his best friend, Ellie Turner, Noah survived those years, escaped his uncle, and grew into the man he is today. Now he runs his own business and lives a pretty normal, no-nonsense life—one where he maintains a high level of control.
Georgina is Ellie’s younger sister. Four months ago, Noah saved Georgie’s life, but he thought that was where his involvement with his friend’s sister would end. Now Georgie has returned home from the recovery facility her parents sent her away to and Noah, still haunted by the night that connects them, can’t stop himself from continuously trying to protect this girl he barely knows. But is he willing to give up all of the control he’s worked so hard to build in his life and risk everything for her? Even more importantly, would she do the same for him?
Review:
Noah Clark, 24, a businessman and Elli's friend , spent a pleasant night of drinking at her friend's parents house when he decides to go to the bathroom and found a terrible scene: Elli's younger sister, Georgie, attempted suicide.
Noah can alert the family and saves her life, and from there, for some reason, their lives intertwine.
Georgina was drowning in her own sorrow. After the death of her brother, Ben, she felt so alone and lost who preferred to take her own life. After spending four months in rehab, she has a new chance. and realizes that at Noah's side she feels safer than ever before.
Their romance begins not in an overwhelming way. Georgie had scars on her skin for what she done, but Noah had internal scarring. Could the two work out as a couple?
The story is beautiful and brings a very clear warning about the distress that many suicidal people do, but few people realize about that. Georgie was fortunate to have a Noah in her life, but a lot of young there has not this lucky.
On the other hand, when you see a person with scars on their attempt to kill themselves, there is no way to judge it. There are people around us with no apparent scar, but they keep more secrets than Fort Knox.
A touching story, with engaging characters and a beautiful message.
I'd love to read Elli and Rose's stories.
