Erin Riggs is an average woman with a normal life, though with decidedly uncommon fears of exploring her world or her own truths. One 3 a.m. incident would change everything forever.
Tamson Robard spent a childhood with a weak mother, desperate to land a man in order to escape a horrific secret that Tamson can’t even fathom. Tamson ran away as a teenager, but is now a grown woman. Other than drugs, her only friend is a guardian angel, Penny, whom she confides in, sharing feeble hopes and unending pain.
Together, the two will discover buried truths that will lead them through tears and to death’s door. Can the collision of Erin and Tamson’s worlds save them both?

I'm a big fan of this author but have been truly disappointed in her last couple books. Unfortunately this is no exception. This is one of her weaker stories and her characters fail to really leap from the page. If you're looking to dive into a Pritekel novel, try the far superior Lessons, Wild, or 1049 Club. Hopefully her next novel will recapture the magic of those stories

3.5 rounded to 4. So this book was different somehow from her others. Took me about halfway through before I got into it. Kim writes fairly long books so... 3 for first half and 4 for second half. It's still better than the "instant love" relationships I've seen in shorter novels. Certainly, I will keep reading her books.
