Life can change in the blink of an eye.

This time, she’ll have to fight for love with a vice clamping her heart and a gaping hole swallowing her soul––absence won’t make the heart grow fonder.

Lies and deceit.

Broken promises and disappointment.

Megan Campbell knows them all too well.

So far, the pain has won. But the pain doesn’t have to be permanent.

synopsis

Clay ran from his family, his career.

From every dream he ever had.

He ran until he crashed.

 

Andi escaped the screams, the fists.

The pain that knocked her down.

She ran until she was thrown.

 

Brought together by a world of darkness and deceit, all they have is each other.

Freedom is what they want.

Though it comes with a price.

 

Because the second they stop running, they’ll drown.

Ten years ago, Lane Lewis said goodbye to the only home he’s ever known.

Now that Midnight Fate’s tour has ended, he’s more determined than ever to find a balance between music and life. But sometimes reality’s a joke, fate’s a lie, and history’s meant to repeat itself.

InPieces_FBCoverInPieces_FrontCover

Release Date: November 10, 2015

synopsis

Rhett Taylor has a reputation to live up to. He’s the small town hero everyone expects to lead the team to victory. But looks can be deceiving, and the pressure unbearable – even after he confides in Kinsley West.

She may not have been the obvious choice to others, but he chose her anyway. Thanks to her newfound popularity, Kinsley’s no longer living in the shadow of her older brother. For once, she has an identity of her own.

But what builds quickly, often comes tumbling down. Piece by piece they find out how unpredictable young love can be. Can their love stand the test of time? Or will it be captured, only to be forgotten?

A roll of film sets their story in motion.

Each frame better than the last.

But the real test comes when their whirlwind romance forces Kinsley to protect their secret – especially if she wants a future. Only Kinsley isn’t sure she can do it – not if she’s going to be left behind In Pieces.

review

Review by Kristin M 5 of 5 Stars!

Sophie is a 20 year old college student on a new campus, trying to escape a bad home life. She has finally made the gymnastics team at the college of her dreams. Everything should be wonderful…right? Sophie comes to college with more than the baggage containing her belongings. Sophie leaves behind an abusive home life and an abusive ex-boyfriend. While she is physically away, what mental baggage is she still carrying?

“You’re right Dad, you did teach me a lot. You taught me exactly who I don’t want to be.”

On move in day, Sophie meets her new roomie, Cara, and Cara’s brother, Kipton. The attraction is instant, but for Sophie, boys are NOT an option. Gymnastics is her life. Gymnastics is her escape. She can not stray from the controlled routine she has set for herself. Cara has other plans. One night of rebellion brings about a whole new world of troubles for Sophie.

“This can’t be happening. Tears prick my eyes. Coach Evans is going to kill me if I’m late to practice, let alone hung over.”

Kipton, unable to deny his attraction to Sophie, continues to be there for her and fight for her, even if she won’t fight for herself.

“I warned him I was too fucked up – too broken by my past. But he wouldn’t listen. Instead, he kept pushing for more even after I assured him I wasn’t capable of anything even close. He made me need him and now that I do, it’s too late.”

Watch as Sophie struggles to find herself and the ability to love and be loved by others.

This was my first Gia Riley book and she definitely left a lasting impression! This book has all of the feels in it!! I LOVED that it dealt with real life issues and dealt with them head on. I LOVED these characters and definitely can not wait for the next book in this series!!
