About this ebook
From the acclaimed bestselling author of Lost to You and When We Collide comes a scorching New Adult novel, perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover! Come to Me Quietly tells the story of one woman’s obsession: a man who’s as passionate as he is elusive—and as tempting as he is trouble…
Aleena Moore is haunted by Jared Holt. It’s been six years since she’s seen her brother’s best friend, the self-destructive bad boy she secretly loved in high school. As the years pass, she knows it’s time to move on. Time to decide between a practical nursing degree and her true dream as an artist. Time to get over Jared and give another guy a chance…
Just when she opens her heart to her friend, Gabe, Aly returns home to find Jared sleeping on her couch. The teenage boy she loved has grown into a man she can’t resist. Covered in tattoos and lost in rage, he’s begging to be saved from his demons—the memories of the day he destroyed his family. As the two reconnect, their passion is hot enough to torch Aly’s judgment. But can she risk her future for a man who lives on the edge of destruction?

This book was a good. I took a lot of breaks at first.Jared character wore me out. from fighting his demons to not feeling worthy of love.it was like" look up man, you have this beautiful girl who gave her all and just waiting for a return in love" but instead get a guy who can't pull-up his bootstrap to see what really in front of him.Then Aleena character was strong and understanding never giving on the people she love, I really wanted her to find someone else and stop crushing on lost Jared.But I eventually fell in love with Jared character. I see why Aleena and Jared fit together. I would like to follow Christopher character and see why his so disconnect with love.

Great read. I laughed. I cried. I felt his pain. Great when an author can pull a reader in like A.L. Jackson did with this book.
