I had a hard time thinking this one could top the second book, Gabe’s story (I really rooted for Gabe, even in the first book) but boy it blew past. It is absolutely the definition of a “page turner” book. I was on edge from chapter one, seriously, you will understand when you read. Someone else said that this book was a perfect way to end the series and I completely agree. You think you know my story, but you don't.after all everyone has Shame in their lives-you're about to know mine.ĭO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND READ THIS SERIES! I should have known it was just another lie-I should have known that falling in love with my professor was a bad idea.īut I was powerless to stop myself from falling. But he offered me peace, he offered me security and love. My scars were too deep, the wounds too raw. I wasn't prepared to fall for someone-ever. When they kissed me.I felt nothing but rage. When guys touched me.I felt nothing but pain. I so wanted to be the beauty in the story-when really I knew I was always the beast. I'd always been the party girl, the one you could count on for a good time, but it was all a lie. A fresh start at college was just what I needed and for a while it worked, unitl my past began to catch up with me. I ran away from him, ran away from the memories and tried to start over. You think you know my story, but you don't.after all everyone has Shame in their lives- and I'm no longer afraid to show you mine.The demons keep me company.the darkness is my friend. Because the darkness finally caught up to me, and as fate would have it, a cruel twist almost bled me dry. But I was powerless to stop myself from falling. I should have known it was just another lie-I should have known that falling in love with my professor was a bad idea. But he offered me peace, he offered me security.

And as much as I wanted redemption, I wasn't fool enough to think I'd ever get it.

Deep inside, every girl wants to be the beauty in the story, to find someone that will see you as their world. I was the party girl, the one that seemed confident, but it was a lie. A fresh start at college was just what I needed. I tried to start over new name, new identity. I ran, but all it did was keep me one step ahead of my past. Everything done in darkness, will eventually be brought into the light.
