Synopsis
Delilah “Lily” Flynn is used to her drab
existence. Lily’s been living it for twenty two years.
Her boring life is suddenly
turned on its head when she’s rudely kidnapped from her bedroom.
Or so she thinks.
Nox Taylor is far too high up in his field to be
assigned a babysitting job.
There’s nothing more
he wants than to complete his mission so he can be rid of the smartass
tomboy, Lily.
Day after day, Nox watches Lily and her strange ways.
She’s unlike any woman he’s ever met.
Getting close to the girl
is purely for her own protection…right?
Lily never imagined she’d make her first real friends
in captivity.
What lengths would she
go through to keep them?
(Author note: This is NOT a dark romance.)
Excerpt
“Do you have a boyfriend?”
Shaking my head, I tell her, “Not unless he’s the fictional kind. It’s just me and my books.”
Her face turns thoughtful, her eyes sad. She murmurs, “Must get lonely.”
Smiling, I say just as quietly, “I could say the same for you.”
She smiles back. “Touché.”
We both lay back down on the bed with a sigh. I guess my life isn’t so bad.
At least I’m not dead.

My Review
Powerful read. I was afraid I wouldn't finish in time for this post honestly. But I couldn't stop reading this captivating story. Do not let the cover fool you, its not that kind of book.
Lily was scared but so strong, I don't think I could've been as strong as her in that situation. But I understand why she was that way, the only way to get through what she was going through.
Nox, hottie bodyguard. I want one!! Hardass, yet so sweet.
I felt every emotion with Lily. I wanted to cry and laugh right along with her.
Belle Aurora has a great way with words, and this story was just perfect.

About the Author
Belle Aurora is twenty six years old and was born
in the land down under.
At an early age she fell
in love with reading. Boredom one summer had her scouring the bookshelves
at home. She stumbled across Sandra Brown’s Breath of Scandal and
fell in love with romance.
Having been brought up
in a loud and boisterous family of Croatian descent, she developed a
natural love for dramatics and humor. Only some years ago had she discovered
a new love.
Humorous romance novels.
Kristen Ashley and R.L. Mathewson had opened a brand
new world where she could lose herself yet feel safe and at home in
their stories.
Belle has been known to become a screeching banshee
while anxiously awaiting their newest titles.
Belle never thought she
would write. It had never interested her until recently. Friend-Zoned
began to form and in February this year Belle typed the words Chapter
One.
And she fell in love.
With words.
With writing.
With a creative imagination she never knew she harbored.
