Drowning

Blurb:

I ran.
From my family, my career, from every dream I ever had.
I stopped when I met her.
But what I realized was that she was running, too.
I tried to protect her—from the crash, from the injuries. From HIM.
All she ever felt was fists. All she ever heard was abuse.
Somewhere along the way, she’d started to believe she deserved it.
I was going to change that.
I was going to treasure her.
Because whether she wanted me or not, I needed her.
Her sweetness.
Her body.
Her lust.
Just when I got what I wanted, I had to run again.
But this time, I had to do it alone.

My Review: 

4 Stars

**Warning: This book contains scenes of domestic violence**

Clay and Andi are both running.

One from the law. The other from an abuser.

When they meet on a train, both of their lives will change in ways they never could have imagined.

Clay is determined to keep Andi safe. He has decided he will do whatever is needed to keep her hidden, even if that means moving cities again.

Andi knows that Clay is a good man. Her heart tells her that. Andi is determined to show the world that Clay is the good man she knows he is.

What happens when the past catches up to both of them? Will they make it out alive or will it be too much for them to bear?

Clay and Andi have such a sweet story. I think Marni and Gia did a great job writing this story. They touch on difficult subjects but they address them in a manner that is kind but truthful.

I have read many books from Marni. This is my first book from Gia and it won’t be my last.
