Gabriella is a young teenage girl, who had no choice other than to live with her mom after her parents spilt-a spilt that she never fully accepted. A year hasn't passed and her mom, Amelia, has already found a new man who is wealthy and well respected but behind closed doors he is a wicked drunk.  

***

"Mom I know dad didn't have half as much money as Charles did but I didn't think you were unhappy. Did you even think about me? Did you ever think how I'd feel about all of this? What do you even like about Charles whatever his name is?" I asked but as every other day, mom is too preoccupied by her work to even listen to what I have to say but I've had enough. 

The bruises around her neck are barely being covered by her concealer and I sure as hell know that she's aware that he tries to get under my sheets, thankfully he hasn't succeeded but that doesn't mean he won't try until he gets what he wants. 

I'm scared that, that day is right around the corner.

If you enjoy suspense, mystery and cliffhangers then this is certainly a book you should read.

I never thought my life would be like this; trapped in a dark room and scared for my life. A blindfold was wrapped around my head, covering my eyes, making me completely blind and on high alert. My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper. A voice boomed closely to me, "Well, if I told you that, this wouldn't be any fun." **************** Skylar James, a 24 year old girl, is kidnapped by a very well known gang who has a vendetta against her family. In an attempt to find light in her situation, she makes friends with one of the members. Logan Grant was forced into the gang at the young age of 16. He was abused until he became emotionless and ruthless, so that one day, he could rule the gang. Everything was going smoothly until Skylar is brought in. With a blindfold wrapped around her head, he instantly feels bad for her, though he cannot show it. Afraid of getting caught, he shows no emotion while others are around. Though, behind closed doors is a whole other story.
