POV: Dual

My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

SOMETIMES THE DEEPEST SCARS ARE THOSE NO ONE SEES.

Lilah seems to have it all—a great job and a gorgeous boyfriend, but underneath the perfect exterior are bruises left behind by a monster who claims to love her.

Damian has a troubled past of his own. He vows to steer clear of love, that is until he meets Lilah—a woman whose secret is slowly consuming her. One look and he knows they've met before but he doesn't know where.

Determined to help her escape the violent relationship she can't seem to leave, he befriends her, vowing to keep her safe, but protecting Lilah comes at a price.

When their attraction turns into passion and their secrets threaten to tear them apart, will they fight for one another? Or will their demons swallow them whole?

***Fragile Scars is a steamy contemporary romance with suspenseful undertones and isn't suitable for those under 18. It contains strong language, sexual situations and references. It is the 1st book in the Fragile Hearts series. All the books in the series are interconnected standalone romances with a different couple, but past couples and characters do make an appearance in later books.

Author Note: Below is a trigger warning for those who may need it. Please stop reading now if you don't want one. This story contains graphic violence and sexual assault, which may not be suitable for some readers.

ALL MY REVIEWS CAN BE FOUND ON MY BLOG: ABSTRACT BOOKS

Fragile scars is the first book of the FRAGILE HEARTS STANDALONE SERIES , written by Lilian Harris. Told in dual perspectives , this book was one overwhelming tale of love and loss.

This was a new to me author and I absolutely loved her book! I will be looking forward to reading more of her stuff. This book contains triggers that some might not be comfortable with. It contains abuse scenes and all , and if you aren't comfortable with that , then please don't read this. If you don't have a problem with this book , then by all means , please read this book!!

Here we get to meet Damian and Lilah. Damian was one of the most swoon-worthy heroes I have ever met. He was perfect in every way and had me loving him so much! He grew up in an abusive home , and had his own demons to combat.

Lilah is a sweet soul , who absolutely did not deserve the violent relationship she was currently trapped in. Her boyfriend was one asshole that I would like to slap really hard. He was such a monster.

Now Damian is 30 years old and moves next door to her . When he noticed the nature of her relationship with her boyfriend , he decided to help her out. He does everything he can to protect her , and to get her out of that relationship. Soon they both become close. Now it's up to them both to overcome their demons and seek solace in each other.

This book was an amazing read on a contemporary basis. My heart hurt so much for both the main leads of this book. This book is recommended to all the contemporary romance lovers !!
