Under Her Skin
His scarred hands are the gentlest I've ever known. If only life were a fairy tale where Beauty got to keep her Beast...
Every morning I wake up and remind myself I am not my past, but beneath my drab clothing hides a secret--proof of the abuse I suffered at the hands of my possessive ex, tattooed on my skin in a lurid reminder of everything I've survived. I'm alone and in hiding, trying to rebuild some semblance of a normal life. I didn't expect healing to come in the form of a rough ex-con whose rage drives him in ways I'll never understand.
Ivan's scars are on the inside--a wounded soul like me. But day by day, this gentle giant proves to me that there are second chances in life, and he deserves them as much as I do. And maybe finding each other will finally allow us to pick up our broken pieces and make something beautiful and new...
This high-heat romance is an emotional tale of survival and contains strong themes of past domestic/sexual abuse. Please see reviews for details.
