About this ebook

Liliana Vela hates the term victim. She's not a victim, she's a fighter. Stubborn and strong with a quiet elegance, she's determined to take back her life after escaping the clutches of human traffickers in her poor Mexican village. But she can't stay safely over the border in America--unless the man who aided in her rescue is serious about his unconventional proposal to marry her.

Meric Toledan was just stopping at a service station for a bottle of water. Assessing the situation, he steps in to rescue Liliana from traffickers. If he can keep his secrets at bay, his wealth and position afford him many resources to help her. But the mysterious buyer who funded her capture will not sit idly by while his prize is stolen from him.

Melissa Koslin throws you right into the middle of the action in this high-stakes thriller that poses the question: What is the price of freedom?

    Okay… love the plot, it was very well written and I felt very emotional for Liliana and her story and the other women’s stories.
    The problem was the end… I don’t understand where this famous person came from?! It was the most random end to the book ever! Had he been mentioned throughout I’d of understood but he came out right at the end, a total unlikely candidate- let’s face it no one famous gets away with much for that long! Especially that type of crime! It came
    Out of left field and ruined it for me to be honest. It wasn’t a shock it was just.. ridiculous and unrealistic! There was no need for it to be a famous person.. I didn’t get it!
    I also think we could of heard more from Meric to help us know a bit more about his character and fall for him.
    It’s worth reading but the ending was very disappointing for me.
