 | A Desperate Longing Jun 24, 2008 |
Kacy Carwell survived the most horrific experience any woman could ever suffer through. Two long years ago she was abducted, and tortured before managing to escape allowing her tormentor to go free also. She struggles every day just to have a semblance of normalcy in her life, but she thinks she sees him everywhere. She still can't be around strangers, and jumps out of her skin anytime a man tries to touch her. Kacy does force herself to get out, and makes a point to regularly attend her nephew Andy's baseball game. When she meets her new neighbor, Gulliver Knight at the game, she has another of her episodes, and accuses him of being her attacker. When she calms down and her senses clear, she apologizes, but can't get over the attraction she feels for him. While she is horribly afraid, it is a milestone, and a first since her abduction. Kacy starts spending time with Gulliver, and finds she craves him as well as his touch all the time. They become closer, and find themselves spending any free time together.
Just as she started feeling normal again, Kacy is thrown into a tailspin. She finds a note slipped under her door, and mistakes it for one Gulliver left earlier. Only this note was from him. He was coming for her. Kacy's instinct is to lean on Gulliver, but she is dealt another devastating blow by his betrayal. She desperately wants to trust him, but she is afraid to. As the attempts against Kacy escalate, she wonders if she will be able to escape this time.
If I could give this book a higher rating I would! Very emotionally charged, and full of suspense pulling the reader in from the beginning. Kacy is an extremely complex well-written character, and the chemistry between she and Gulliver is sensual and sexy. The author obviously did a lot of research on assaults, and victims' reactions to different stimulus. The book was written with many intricate specific details. Great read! | | | Write your own review about A Desperate Longing
