At 24 years old, Erica Pattinson never saw herself as a victim.

Trapped in an abusive marriage where she is beaten, demeaned and suffers every type of torment imaginable, she tries to find an out-an escape.

When Thomas (Tom) Clarke rolls into town and discovers that his best friend's wife is in the hospital after a terrible "fall", he knows that something is amiss.

The two never expected for Erica's husband to refuse her freedom or the fact that hero and survivor would develop more than a simple friendship in this thrilling tale of love and courage.All Rights Reserved

She'll study hard, get a full scholarship and go to college. Then, maybe she can land a job which would allow her to help her family more. But her dreams of a perfect GPA shatter when her biology teacher decides studying won't be enough to pass his class. Enter Tom, a mysterious DJ who knows everything there is to know on the subject. And as an added bonus, he offers to tutor Angie for free. If only he wouldn't be so much fun and so damn good looking. Tom didn't know he had a generous bone in his body, and yet he offered one of his few free afternoons to a total stranger. One he's getting much too attached to after his recent brush with lost love and drama. There's just something about her, a mystery he needs to unravel that goes beyond her beauty. And it's deeply seeded in her refusal to relax around him or anyone else. The closer they come to each other, the more complicated their lives get. And when the truth finally comes out, all hell breaks loose. After all, it was nothing but a wrong impression. 🔱🔱🔱 Warning: This is frustrating poor people bad romance.
