BLURB
The help-wanted ad on the
bulletin board at Ashland’s college was simple enough: mother seeks live-in
maid for son. But it turns out Breaker James is a mess in more ways than one.
He’s confined to a prison of his own making, crippled by his fear of people and
any social interaction whatsoever. Every vibe he’s giving off is begging
Ashland to stay away, yet she finds herself strangely drawn to him. Can she
coax him out of his darkness and help him overcome the deep trauma of his past
to reclaim a normal life?
A contemporary romance perfect
for fans of Lauren Oliver’s Before I Fall and JoJo Moyes’ Me Before You,
AnguiSH delves deep into complex human emotions and the struggle to move
forward from devastating past events.

EXCERPT:
She
moved over on the bed, giving me room to get in next to her. I got in. “I’m
afraid I’m… God, this is hard to admit.”
Her
hand glided down my jaw. “Tell me.”
“I
tried—I tried to go out the other day, just for a walk or something. I couldn’t
do it. I couldn’t make it past the damned threshold of the door.”
Her
face was pure disappointment, and I knew mine mirrored it. Admitting it to her,
I felt like a shadow of a man.
“But
you tried, right? That has to count. I mean, you go out with me all the time.”
Her voice faltered at the end of the sentence.
“I
did try. But I couldn’t go through with it.”
She
scooted closer to me and put one hand on my face while she buried her own in
the hollow of my neck. “Can you just hold me and forget that there’s something
we can’t do? I’d like to hang on to the notion that you can do anything—just
for the night.”

Author Info
Lila
Felix is full of antics and stories. She refused to go to Kindergarten after
the teacher made her take a nap on the first day of school. She staged her
first protest in middle school. She almost flunked out of her first semester at
Pepperdine University because she was enthralled with their library and
frequently was locked in. Now her husband and three children have to put up
with her rebel nature in Louisiana where her days are filled with cypress
trees, crawfish, and of course her books and writing. She writes about the
ordinary people who fall extraordinarily in wild, true love.
