Tempting Rowan - Micalea Smeltzer - Bog

I'm drowning in the numbness. It's pulling me under and I can't see the surface. It's easier to pretend I can't feel. And the longer you pretend, the easier it is to believe. But he wants to save me. Only he can't. I have to save myself...and I don't know if I want to. Rowan Sinclair's life has been anything but easy. With an alcoholic mother and a sleazy stepfather, it's been her responsibility to raise her younger siblings. At twenty-one she's chained to a life she doesn't want, but sees no other alternative. After all, what would happen to her brother and sister if she were to leave? Trenton Wentworth sees the pain behind Rowan's eyes. He wants nothing more than to make it disappear. To hold her. To love her. Except Rowan keeps everyone at a safe distance. But if there's anyone that can break down the walls she's built around herself, it's Trent. So she avoids him at all costs. But Trent isn't one to be easily evaded. He's stubborn and determined. He'll save this girl even if it costs him everything. Love, lies, and deception. That's the name of the game when you're Tempting Rowan. Note: This is book three in the Trace + Olivia series but follows new characters. You do not need to read the first two books in the series to read this one. If you'd like to, they are: Finding Olivia (Book One) Chasing Olivia (Book Two) This is a standalone.
