Beautiful Collision

Warning: Beautiful Collision is set against the backdrop of the sex trafficking trade. It's not easy reading. though I have tried to remain realistic, without pulling punches. Please note that some scenes could be considered rape trauma triggers, and are by no means meant used for dramatic effect.
***

Eighteen year old Gray McAllister is on the run. Leaving her dangerous past behind her is easier said than done, even when she finds herself at last able to forge a new life.

But then the planets align and Gray finds herself bumping into super-hot Thane Blackwell. Drooling over him from afar is safe but that's only until she is forced to look after Thane while he recovers from surgery.

Being holed up in her apartment is a bad bad idea. Can Gray control the fire that Thane seems light inside her, or will she give in to her deepest desires? Can Thane achieve his goal without hurting Gray in the process?

The stakes are impossibly high, but love and lies don't play nice with each other. Will Gray's past catch up with her first? Or will Thane's own secrets explode and tear them apart?

Beautiful Collision is the first part of the Desperation Series. The second and final book is Beautiful Conviction on pre-order now.
Please note that this book ends in a cliff-hanger and picks up immediately in book #2.
