Summary

Cassie Parker has grown used to denying her sexuality. Her father, the fire-and-brimstone Reverend Parker, has made that a necessity. Raised in a web of secrets, sadness, and under the heavy hand of her father's righteous wrath and intolerance, Cassie turns to her art to fill the hole in her heart and erase the memory of a mother who abandoned her in childhood. Then Luke Winston enters her life. Strong, mysterious, and beautiful, Luke sparks Cassie's desire, and takes her heart to places she's never known. Soon Cassie can no longer deny her attraction to women - and especially to Luke.

When Cassie's father makes an unexpected visit, the intrusion on her new life explodes as dark family secrets are revealed. Will Cassie choose a life without family...or a life without love?

A beautiful story of love and the art of becoming oneself...

I loved every second of this book. It reminded me of how important it is not to live up to the expectations of others at the expense of being the person you are, and the fear, in this case, of the judgement and wrath of her father, a reverend, finding out who his daughter really is, tho for him, being a compassionate and talented human being was far less important than keeping up appearances in the eyes of his church, his flock, and his god.

Yet even in the midst of all the hate thrown at her, Cassie still manages to show her father compassion and understanding.

I loved the writing of the developing love between Cass and Luke. It was seductive and emotional, with well written, hot and believable sex scenes.

The narrator was excellent, bringing the characters to life skilfully, and with ease.

I didn't want it to end!

A great story.

This is a lovely romance that shows the power of love and indeed the power of hate in the pretext of love! How we choose family and how difficult families can be that leave a lasting legacy.
Abby read this audio book brilliantly and I definitely recommend this fantastic audio book. ❤

When you can’t run away no more

I listened to this one on coming out day ;) we join the story when Cassy cannot run away from herself anymore. And for some out there the choice is between new ans old family…

I've been binging Gerri Hill books and I've lived them all so far... but this book has hit home on many levels. So real. Favourite by a long shot.

Different in a good way

I liked this book and the way it addresses mental health, discrimination and even abuse. It made me cry in places. I was so hopeful for Cassie, I hoped there’d be a follow up! I’m going to check now!

Amazing listen

This was absolutely amazing! The self discovery and the will to defend it once discovered was inspiring. The banter is always a pleasure. The ending left me wanting more with so many questions.

I loved it

I enjoyed this so much it was difficult for me to leave it be. The characters pulled me in. I loved being part of this journey. Excellent writing from a wonderful Author. I know I have posted the same review for Gerri's other writings, but it all comes down to the fact that I am drawn to an excellent story which they all are.

Abby, I can't find any other voice/narrator, that is so capable of making each character so individual. You are so skilled in your craft and an absolute must in my book.
