Releasing Me (Book Two) Holding You Series
SYNOPSIS
Never goodbye …
I thought Addy stole my soul.
Her beauty blinded me.
Her heart called to me.
Her touch healed me.
She gave everything and asked for nothing. Then I broke her. The depths of her pain were veiled by the reflection of my own. I didn’t deserve her, but I wanted her––I needed her. In my darkest hell, I heard her voice. That’s when I knew …
Addy was my soul.
Deep breath … I am peaceful, I am strong.
Quinn was worth the risk.
He took away the numbness and gave me unfathomable pleasure. Every emotion felt magnified, every moment felt like the last.
My heart found purpose.
My body came to life.
My soul returned.
His weakness gave me strength, and his past held my future. He saved me by … releasing me.

Excerpt One
The moment was raw. After so much pain, anger, and
heartbreak, we stood inches apart, bared to one another—physically and
emotionally. I think we both knew it wasn’t a surrender or the mending of our
relationship, and it wasn’t forgiveness. It was just coming up for a breath of
air before being pulled under again.
The peace before the storm ended when I laid my hands on his
bare chest. The connection was electric. His whole body quivered for an instant
before he pulled me into his arms. His mouth attacked mine. The taste of him
awakened a craving deep inside that I’d nearly forgotten. Every cell in my body
screamed for his touch; the need to feel his flesh against mine was almost
painful. We fell to the bed and our bodies entwined. Every move felt frantic
and desperate. I could feel my skin bruising under his fingers as they gripped
my body. Pain, pleasure, hate, love—a tornado of emotions ripped through us.
Our eager and insatiable bodies lost all control. In that moment, I only needed
to feel something, just a moment of reprieve from the numbness that had seized
my body and emotions.
Excerpt Two
After they exited the room, Addy sat
on the edge of the bed and held my hand. Eyes wet and dull, I could see her
fighting back tears.
"Baby, I'll be f—fine."
Those four words broke her open, and the
biggest tears fell down her face. Her body was still as she held her breath to
keep from sobbing. I wanted to reach up and wipe away her tears, but I was too
weak. Moving any part of my body was a challenge and any attempt caused pain.
"Come here," I whispered.
She hesitated at first then leaned
into me until our foreheads were touching. It was an intimate gesture that we
had between us. It acknowledged our unspoken emotions, even if we weren't ready
to share them. Addy had a lot she wasn't ready to share.

SYNOPSIS
Deep breath … I am
peaceful, I am strong.
Free-spirited Addy
Brecken is Milwaukee’s most talented vegan chef and co-owner of Sage Leaf Café.
She has a genius IQ, a padded savings account, an amazing view of Lake
Michigan, and a heart that won’t stop beating.
Deep breath … I am
peaceful, I am strong.
An early April morning
finds her drowning in the seductive fragrance of lilacs and the warmth of the
morning sun when she’s nearly hit by a car in front of her café. The peaceful
existence she’s desperately tried to maintain after the horrific loss of her
family is suddenly shaken by the Range Rover driving, arrogant, sex-on-legs
Quinn Cohen.
Deep breath … I am
peaceful, I am strong.
A successful, Latino
businessman from New York, Quinn has a taste for the finer things in life. A
typical playboy, he has the money, the houses, the cars, and the women. Quinn
is everything Addy avoids. Where she lives simply and prefers to help the less
fortunate, he has no problem spending an obscene amount of money on a
briefcase. Their opposite personalities lend to several heated encounters, and
Addy finds herself propositioning Quinn for the one thing she never imagined
needing … sex.
Offering only her body,
Addy tries to keep Quinn at a safe distance from her heart and a world away
from her past. Their passion-filled connection makes Addy feel something
unfamiliar, alive. But with passion comes more feelings: anger, jealousy, love.
When Addy surrenders to the unimaginable and lets go of her past, she’s faced
with the impossible … holding on to her future.
Deep breath … I am
peaceful, I am strong.
