BLOG TOUR STOP~SHARING HARPER by V. Murphy
A pain too hard to understand.
A struggle too deep to reach.
A love too complicated to work…but too intense to let go.
Harper Mae ran as far away as she could from her abusive past. She went to a different city and numbed her pain by using men, never sleeping with the same guy more than once.
Ryder worked at a coffee shop trying blend in with the rest of the world, desperately trying to live a normal life. After leaving a relationship and losing his family, he vowed never to fall in love again.
Until one day they are unexpectedly drawn to each other unable to let go.
Harper and Ryder’s turbulent relationship, two people who are struggling to find themselves, realize the answer lies within each other.
Secrets, so deep, that both have, end up surfacing causing irrevocable pain.
Will their love be strong enough to survive or will their pain be the downfall to their relationship?
Will Harper open up enough to share her past with Ryder or will he be just another number on her list?
REVIEW
This was an interesting. I absolutely love books that highlight domestic violence, this book is an ambassador against domestic violence. So we give miss V the up-most respect for broaching this real topic that, affect millions of people around the world on a daily basis.
well that said, its time to get on with the review.
Do you believe in love at first sight? Do you believe that their is that one person out there that can connect with your soul even from beyond your own personal fort knox?
Harper never believed but lets see if she will have a change of heart by the end.
Harper has spent the last three years of her life hiding from her past and living an empty vacant life.
When I was first introduced to Harper's character, I was wanted to slap her and tell her to get a little bit of self respect.
But then we started to see her pain and demons as the pages went on. I felt her hurt and emptiness her suffering became my own.
"Tonight I was Going to have mind-numbing sex while I was blacked out drunk. I was going to be free from my inner-demons"~Harper
I wanted to cry for her character, the trauma she suffered was damaging forever changing the course of her life.
Love is now like a poison to her she only sleeps with a guy once then throw them out the next morning.
So when miss broken met her friend at a coffee shop and her eyes connected with a pair of piercing blue eyes the wind was knocked from her lungs. instantly after that moment her life began to change and she only knew his name at the time. Ryder
"I desperately wished I could see him right now. Tell him how scared I am of being alone and just spend the night with him. I wanted desperately to sleep with him. just sleep in a bed with him"~Harper
Her normal habits and behavior started changing due to the inexplicable connection she felt for Ryder.
"I didn't understand why I kept thinking and obsessing over him"~ Harper
After trying to rid her mind of consuming thoughts of Ryder she goes out with her best friend Skye, she gets into a very dangerous and Ryder shows up just in the nick of time to save her and that was the start of their rocky relationship and him saving her from herself and her past.
"Something about you wants me to save you from your past"~Ryder
Harper does what every broken person does best push people way wanting to bury their head in the sand but Ryder never gave up on her he wore her down with his love and support. until she opened up about her past and demons.
"My walls fell down around my feet and I broke down"~Harper
"I will never leave you...ever. you're too beautiful and broken for me to just walk away and never look back"~Ryder
Ryder sounds perfect right?!?.....almost but he does have his own share of demons and dark secrets
will their love survive once his secrets are uncovered?!?
Get a copy of the book to find out.
overall the story was a deep and meaningful one that every women will be able to connect with. Absolutely recommend.
I really wanted to give this book a 5 star but I just could not, the repetition and small wording issues just got to me. But apart from that brilliant story.
well that said, its time to get on with the review.
