Synopsis: For twenty three year old Katrina Smith, the events of one day irrevocably changed her life.

Life in Christchurch, New Zealand, couldn't have been better. She was in love with a wonderful man, had a job she enjoyed, and had her life mapped out before her...

What dawned as a typical summer’s day, changed into a day of devastation and overwhelming loss. An insidious danger lay beneath the benign land surface, seismic tension, like a ticking time-bomb, was counting down to a catastrophe. And Kate and her boyfriend, Daniel, were in its path. It took mere seconds for the world to be ripped out from under her. Suddenly, Kate was deluged by a vortex of Post Traumatic Stress, guilt and crippling anguish.

Dominic Dell’Antonio, an American marine working in New Zealand, was a man hiding from his own demons which lurked behind depth-less blue eyes that read so much, yet yielded so little. He kept himself aloof and isolated. Nightmares regularly plagued him.

As Kate slipped under a suffocating wave of heartache, she blocks out the world behind self imposed walls, drowning in the torrents of grief. Quiet, yet commanding, Dominic connects with Kate on some inexplicably deeper level. He wants to protect her. He wants to make her his.

Two damaged and guarded souls drawn together through tragic circumstances. Two lonely hearts drawn to one another to find comfort.
About the Author: Leanne Pearson grew up in Durban, South Africa. She later immigrated to New Zealand, where she now lives with her husband, and two children. During her down time, if she's not reading, she can be found relaxing outside, sipping on an apple cider, soaking up the sights and sounds of rural New Zealand. Leanne has had a few feature articles published in the newspaper over the years and has had a flair for creative writing from a very young age.

I would have to give this book 3.5 stars. 
There we things that I like and disliked about the book.
Here is what I like about it,
I fell in love with Kate and Dom right away. I feel that they have a lot in common, they are 2 broken souls who need some healing and fate is playing its hand at helping with that. I really love when she told the bimbo off in the bar, she might want to admit it but she had feelings for Dom then, but was afraid of feeling and that she was someone letting Daniel down by going on with her life. I really like how this book goes back and forth between Kate and Dom, most of the time books are one sided so it was a nice change to get both sides of what is going on.
So there was only thing that I really didn't care too much for in the book. I felt that the most important things or the best parts of the book took too many chapters to get to. It was times I felt like I lost interest in it.
But overall please know it is a good book and everyone's opinions are different
