I was fortunate to have won this book in a Goodreads’ First Reads giveaway (many thanks!!!), but I would have gladly paid for it as it’s a wonderful book.Ĭhloe, a 17 year old, gets abducted during her vacation in Greece. And is it her imagination, or does her captor share those feelings? Even when she is finally released, Chloe vows to protect her captor at any cost. Though still fearing for her safety, she now fantasizes about a life together. Before long, Chloe begins to have feelings for him that take her by surprise. At least her kidnapper, although cold and distant, visits frequently, often bringing gifts. The weeks pass and, haunted by terrifying dreams and with only her thoughts to keep her company, Chloe fights to remain calm in an impossible situation. His revelation that she is being held as ransom for a prisoner exchange, however, does little to allay her fears. Chloe can only imagine the worst.Īfter several days of total isolation and utter despair, Chloe faces a new threat when her kidnapper appears, but she also feels a sense of relief. Waking up from a drug-induced sleep, she finds herself in a squalid warehouse. Seventeen-year-old Chloe’s summer vacation in Greece comes to an abrupt end when she is suddenly bound, gagged and whisked away to an unidentified location. What happens when the source of your worst fears becomes the object of your affection?
