Emma Ayers suffers from PTSD from sexual abuse. From ages 8-13, she was raped, molested, and tortured by her Uncle Jack. Despite the fact that he is in jail, and she's 28, her emotional scars are deep. She won't be in a relationship, and can't stand anyone touching her. She works as a clinical psychologist, trying to help others with their emotional trauma, even though she can't overcome hers.

Carter Hackney is a psychopath. He can't feel any emotions, nothing. Ever since his traumatic childhood, his emotions have shut down completely. Despite his rough start, he has collected a large fortune for himself as an entrepreneur.

Carter wants Emma's help to counsel him out of being a psychopath, and for him to gain his emotions back. Emma wants to heal her emotional scars and prepare to enter future romantic relationships. Their plan is to "date" so that Carter can start to try and feel romantically and be more open with her, and so that she can start to see what a real, healthy relationship is like. Despite her strict rules on not mixing her business life with her personal, the two can't help but feel drawn to each other. Can Emma overcome her past, and learn to be in a loving relationship, and allow a man to romantically touch her? Can Carter get back all of the emotions he thought he'd lost, and start to love again?

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023
