Description
When Cecily Buchanan walks into the Roadhouse Bar and Grill and offers to sing for a meal, ex Marine Jake McGarrity can't say no. Some say Jake is too soft hearted for his own good. But letting the waif with the cover girl face and the voice of an angel walk away would be more than he could stand.Cecily's sweet nature, bubbly personality and obvious talent endear her to everyone she meets, and Jake soon knows his heart is lost.Cecily has secrets and won't talk about her past, one so dark that she has nightmares and clutches a knife while she sleeps.When those who are chasing her close in, she faces the decision of whether to run again or to trust her life to the cowboy angel who has taught her the meaning of love.“Shocking, but oh, so sweet.”Author's note: This book includes content about past rape and abuse.From the AuthorI'll Sing for My Dinner is not a standard romance novel, although romance is a strong element in the book. It's been called romantic suspense, a psychological thriller, and women's literature. It is a tale of a young woman's journey from hell to redemption.There are many kinds of abuse, emotional, psychological, and physical. A young child exposed to one is more susceptible to the others, and as the child grows older, and the abuse piles up, they can grow to think of abuse as a sign of love.Some of the content in this book is difficult for some readers. Some aren't able to deal with it, and it has triggered PTSD flashbacks. For others, it has led to the beginning of their healing.
