~ Synopsis ~
Two survivors.
Two weeks.
One awakening.
When Bristol Criswell travels to St. Lucia for an Enduring Life retreat, she hopes to discover encouragement and support from like souls. A vacation fling is the furthest thing from her mind, especially not with a cocky-mouthed, arrogant jerk like Davis McKay.
But when it becomes evident she can't deny the magnetic attraction between the two, she gives in to her desires, and for the first time in her life, learns the difference between simply living and truly feeling alive.
As their time in paradise quickly comes to an end, will her heart be able to withstand another devastating loss when it's time to say goodbye, or will their connection be strong enough to survive the real world?
Death brought them together, but love will give them a reason to live. **This book is a full-length, stand alone novel that is not a part of a series**
~ Review ~
5 Stars
I loved this book. It
was so nice to finally read a book that I couldn't put down. I have been in a book slump lately.
Bristol has spent the last twelve years feeling guilty for
living. She can get over how she lost
her parents. She is finally able to go on a survivors with the group she's been
apart of for a few years. She is excited
to finally meet the people she's been talking to online. She never expected to find love. But can she get over the guilty and let love
in? Will it be more than a paradise fling?
Davis hasn't been living the last couple years. He doesn't understand why he survived when
everyone else didn't. He doesn't want to
be on this retreat that his mom made him come on. He is only going to please his mom. He never expects Bristol to be the game
changer. He never thought he could love again. But can he pull himself out of
his funk and let himself live again?
This is a beautiful love story. Full of hope after such tragic pasts. But can they heal enough to let love in? This is an incredible story by Erin Noelle
and I love Davis!!!

~ Excerpt ~
T TAKES EVERYTHING I have not to smile as I watch Bristol throw her little fit. Knowing that she came by my place last night, and she’s jealous because she thinks I was there with another chick, makes my ego swell and my cock hard.
Once she’s finished digging her finger into my stomach and calling me a dick—which I usually am, but surprisingly don’t want to be one around her; I refuse to ask myself why this is—I do exactly what I’ve yearned to do since the moment I laid eyes on her. I claim her perfectly pouty lips with mine in demanding, caveman-esque fashion, hoping every person on this beach understands the statement I’m making.
I’m not sure if her ‘friend’ from last night is even out here, but I hope to God he is, because as a guy, I know with certainty the way he looked at her wasn’t how a big brother should look at his little sister. Ever. The way his eyes roamed up and down her body, how his hand splayed out on her bare back, holding her close to him, and the way he called her ‘baby girl’, all said plenty about his true intentions. I’m not usually one to cock-block, especially knowing the reason he’s even here is because something really fucked up has happened in his life, but I’ll be damned if he’s getting anywhere near Bristol while we’re here. She’s mine.
Her lips part with no resistance as the tip of my tongue requests entrance, finally allowing me to savor the taste of her sugary sweetness. My hands glide around her jaw to the back of her neck, fingers threading through her silky hair as I continue to explore her mouth, our tongues curling around one another’s in an effortless, synchronized movement.
She moans into my mouth, a direct command for my cock to stand at full-attention, and suddenly, I no longer want these other people around us. They’re the only reason I’m not laying her flat on her back in the sand right now and devouring every inch of her body, like I’d promised her I’d do. And based on the way she’s digging her nails into my shoulders and not-so-subtly pressing her body into mine, I’m pretty sure it’s what she wants too.
