“I’m not very good at sharing, especially when it comes to you Harper.”

 

A pain too hard to understand. 

A struggle too deep to reach. 

A love too complicated to work…but too intense to let go. 

Harper Mae ran as far away as she could from her abusive past. She went to a different city and numbed her pain by using men, never sleeping with the same guy more than once. 

Ryder worked at a coffee shop trying blend in with the rest of the world, desperately trying to live a normal life. After leaving a relationship and losing his family, he vowed never to fall in love again.

 

Until one day they are unexpectedly drawn to each other unable to let go.

 

Harper and Ryder’s turbulent relationship, two people who are struggling to find themselves, realize the answer lies within each other. 

Secrets, so deep, that both have, end up surfacing causing irrevocable pain. 

Will their love be strong enough to survive or will their pain be the downfall to their relationship? 

Will Harper open up enough to share her past with Ryder or will he be just another number on her list?

 

 

Review:

 

In "Sharing Harper" we meet Harper Mae, a girl who has a very hardcore past. She moves away from home to California to leave it all behind. Harper puts on this independent, stong, I don't give a damn tough girl vibe, but it is all an act to cover her real self. She is a scared, battered and broken woman who just wants to keep the past hiden and behind her. She never let's anyone in, she doesn't take chances to getting hurt again. The only person she lets even remotely close is her BFF Skye and even she only know what Harper alows.

 

We then meet Ryder... Ryder has a past of his own and doesn't want a relationship or love either, but when Harper walks into his coffe shop, he can't help but feel that spark. Ryder will stop at nothing to be with Harper and help her move on with her life. He sees her for what she really is. Harper is scared of the draw she has to Ryder and trys to stay away, but he will have none of that.

 

This book is FULL of everything!! angst, abuse, love, friendship and a whole lot more.! It is a hard story to read in the since, of the past we learn Harper has endured. It will cut you deep and leave you hurtting for her and praying she finds her peace. 

 

I loved how Ryder didn't give up on Harper. He makes her want things she never thought she could have or deserve. He helps her let go of her fears and open up to him and a new life. He loves her hard and in helping her to open up, he to learns to open to her.

 

This book is an Amazing story! It will grip you and hold on to you and put you through an emotional ride that will leave you wanting more. To be warned, it does have some hardcore abuse and I would recommend 18 and older to read. It does leave on somewhat of a cliffhanger, however, in a way you are at peace when you finish so you don't really have that cliffhanger feeling at the end. You only are left peacefully wanting more.

 

V. Murphy did an Amazing job with this book!  I personally want to thank her for allowing us (the readers) to read not only, a story of a girl finding her way, but a love story that will grab you.

 

I give this book a  4.5 star rate and would recommend this book to ALL my book buddies out there!!

It just left me with a HUGE Book Hangover!!! Job well done!!
