Wrecked by Priscilla West

Description

A New Adult Romance Novel by USA Today Bestselling Author Priscilla West

“There would be no happy ending for us. He was too damaged. I was too broken.”

Two years ago, Lorrie’s mother was murdered. But that wasn’t the end of it. Reeling from the tragedy, Lorrie’s father spiraled into alcohol, depression, and finally suicide.

The two most important people in Lorrie’s life are both gone but she’s still alive.

Trying to recover from the tragedy, Lorrie returns to campus, ready to pick up the pieces of her life. All Lorrie wants is to get back to “normal.”

Then she meets Hunter. The man, the legend, “The Hammer.”

Hunter is a cage fighter who takes on every fight like he’s got nothing to lose. His life is a tangled mess of girls, booze, and fist fights. And while it may seem like he’s got a devil-may-care attitude, he’s fighting a private cage-match with a monster he can’t defeat.

Lorrie knows that Hunter is exactly the type of guy she should stay away from, especially in her fragile state, but Hunter has other ideas.

As Hunter and Lorrie grow closer together, will they be able to overcome their pain and heal each other? Or will they both end up wrecked?

RESCUED (WRECKED BOOK TWO: Coming Early 2014)

This started off so well.

 Lorrie back at college after her mum is murdered by her step dad and her dad kills himself, shes trying to get back to normal when in a freak accident she ends up falling into a frozen lake.  Trapped under the ice she thinks she'll surely die until shes rescued by the handsome Hunter Jensen. 

I was gripped, this sounded like a must read ... and then it fizzled out.

I don't have any idea what Lorrie looks like, I can't remember if the author has actually described her and far to much time was wasted messing around with a box of abandoned kittens.  The chemistry was just fine between Hunter and Lorrie there was no need for the kittens.

It was a struggle not to abandon this book at 76% but if I had I'd never have found out about Hunter, which I'm pleased I stuck with it but sadly its just not going to make me buy book 2 :(
