My Review:
5 Stars
Delia has lost her entire family and now has to start over after spending the last 10 years locked away. Delia can't remember all of the details fo the night she lost her family, and the town will not let her forget what they think she did.
Upon her emerge back into the social circle that is life she meets Liam. He seems to good to be true. Knows her past and still offers her a place to stay. Something keeps nagging in the back of Delia's head.
Delia if forced to deal with lies, questions, and people who are not what they seem. As she tries to remember the details from that horrifying night more questions seem to pop up.
An amazing thrilling read from author Ruthi Kight. Delia is an amazingly brash and strong character. Enjoyed her personality and realness very much.

Excerpt:
With my thoughts running amok, my cheeks began to feel warm, betraying me. The heat spread from one side to the other quickly, giving my face a nice rosy glow. He chuckled and I almost came apart. Did this man have any idea what that one small sound did to a girl? I bet he did, he had to, given his current shit-eating grin. There was no way that he couldn’t know. Guys like him knew they were walking fuck-me advertisements.
“Careful. It’s a little too soon to fall for me.” He smiled, dimples and all, and I nearly lost it again. Dimples! I was in serious trouble already and I hadn’t been out of the loony bin for an hour yet.
“Not likely,” I replied. I righted myself and leaned back casually. “Are you planning on being here long?”
He quickly scanned my face, and then returned his focus to the book in his hands. “Not sure. Ask me again in an hour.”
Argh! Infuriating and sexy as hell? Great combo. My head told me to walk away, but my traitorous body was trying to convince me to inch closer to him. With a quick scoot, I was mere inches from him, our legs nearly touching.
“Whatcha reading?” I tried to get a look at the book, but he closed it before I could figure out what it was.
“Homer.”
“Simpson?”
A slow grin spread across his face. “As in The Odyssey. Greek epic poem…ring any bells?”
“No. The only Homer I know is married to a woman with a giant blue beehive.”
With a shake of his head, he opened his book once again. “Sheltered?”
His attitude was really starting to piss me off. “No. Unless you consider ten years in the wacky shack as sheltered.” I had expected my words to have some sort of impact. Nothing. He didn’t even flinch.
Dreamcast:
For Delia, I’d say Nina Dobrev, just because she has such an
attitude and can pull it off. I didn’t think that before the “bad” Elena on
TVD, but now...yeah, she could handle it, lol.
For Liam...hmmm...that might be a little tougher. I’d have
to say Steven Strait. He’s soooo gorgeous! I would literally gobble him up! LOL
For Mike, there’s only one choice, lol. Samuel Larsen and
those dreads...I mean..WOW! I’ve seen a lot of guys with dreads, but he would
be perfect.
For the minor characters, it would be a toss up. Probably
want unknown actors, just to even it out.
