Synopsis:

From the outside, Abby’s life looks like a fairytale. 

Loving family, wealthy lifestyle, education at a prestigious university. The truth? She’s barely managing to survive. Few know the nightmare she lived before she was adopted. And no one knows the secret agony that still haunts her nightmares. With a degree from Berkeley, she could have gone anywhere, but she’s back in Colorado. Not for a fresh start—fresh starts are only an illusion—but for Wes Ahern. Her protector, who throws around words like “therapy” and “talk to me.” Her brother in every way but blood. The one man she wishes could be so much more.

Maybe, just this once, she can stop running from her demons. 

But does she dare let Wes see inside the darkest closets of her pain…or will love be the biggest mistake of her life?

  An inspirational and emotional contemporary romance Begin with You is a heartbreaking tale of fresh starts and old wounds. This jarring and dark novel will leave readers at the edge of their seats. This is part one of a duet, thus containing a cliffhanger that leads into the next installment. It contains references to childhood trauma, kidnapping, and PTSD.


My Thoughts:

This was a hard one for me to read, let alone review. I really enjoy Claudia's books and I usually gobble them up with a voracious appetite, but this one veers away from the norm for her, so it was harder for me to get into. This is a much darker story than the usual Claudia Burgoa book, but it is a compelling book and once you get hooked into the story, you will not be able to put it down until you are done reading it. At least that is what happened with me. It was edge-of-the-seat gritty at some points, hopeful at others, and the ending will make you scream because it ends on a cliffhanger (it's a two-part series) and what a cliffhanger it is! Be warned, though, there are many things in here that could be triggers for people suffering from childhood traumas and/or mental health issues, but it's not written in a way to exploit, but to comprehend. One hell of a ride - on to book two!
