Having made memories and so many good times in a local pub. She decides to have lunch with Ashley. The first step through the door is the hardest thing for Keisha to do. The biggest step for her changes her changes her life with hopes to get back to the life she had. When she comes face to face with the man who saved her, can he save her again?

"How was your meal, ladies?" Cameron asks.

"Lovely. Thank you," Ashley answers.

"Keisha?"

"It was great. Thank you," I say, looking up at him and smiling.

"Well, we have a great pudding menu, and since it's your birthday, Ashley, you should have a little treat," Cameron insists.

I gaze at his short brown hair, piercing blue eyes, and sweet smile. He is quite tall with a medium body frame. I never got a good look at him that day. I didn't have time, nor did I care what he looked like.

" Keisha, hot chocolate fudge cake and ice cream?" Ashley asks.

"You know me so well." I giggle.

"It's my favorite, too," Cameron adds.

Ashley and I sit there chatting when I feel a tap on my shoulder.

"Hey," Cameron says. I didn't hear or see him come back.

"Hi," I answer. Why is he here again? And with no dessert?

"Can I borrow you for a minute?" he asks.

"Yes..." I pause, looking at Ashley.

Feeling safe, I walk alongside Cameron. I haven't elt like this since before the attack. This seems so strange to me. We walk out of the building and take a seat at the front on the wooden bench.

"Sorry to take you away from your friend." he states, his voice gentle but firm.

(4 stars)

Well, I am really lucky I have a BFF in the UK, so when I send her message asking what a jumper is she can explain it to me. For the people reading this that don't know it's a sweater.

This is a very short read, took me less then 2 hours, probably a whole hour seeing as I was on FB and chatting with my BFF through the whole read.

Keisha is attacked, and gets saved by Cameron. She has no clue who he is, just that he is the guy that saved her. As when traumatic events happen, Keisha is now suffering panic attacks, nightmares, well PTSD, and its completely understandable. If it hadn't been for Ash, her bff, Keisha would have been an even more hot mess. As she starts to get better, pushing herself to leave the house, the girls go to celebrate Ash's birthday. This is where Keisha meets Cameron again, and he starts to help heal her. I really can't wait for the next part in this story. It is a cliffy!! I do give this 4 stars.

L. Chapman was born in and continues to live in North Yorkshire, United Kingdom. She has spent most of her life helping others. At one time, a DJ for a special needs club. Blending her love of helping others and her love of children, L dreams to one day own and operate a childcare nursery that will help mainstream special needs children with others.

In the rare ...times that L. is not working to help others or maniacally writing, she enjoys making a mess of things while creating beautifully detailed greeting cards. She spends time relaxing with family, friends, and good books. L. loves to travel and has been to many places in the United Kingdom; her favorite places all involve the ocean. She hopes to one day share a kiss with her happily-ever-after in the romantic shadow of the Eiffel Tower. Should she ever get over her fear of flying, those kisses may be shared in the shadows of the Egyptian Pyramids.

Ever the fussy eater, L. has never once tasted peanut butter, and she despises coffee. If you should feel the need to bribe her, it is suggested that you bring chocolate, as that is one of her known weaknesses.
