Review & Tour - Escaping Parker by F.T. Zele


Title: Escaping Parker
Author: F.T. Zele
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Published: June 21, 2015


Clarissa never thought at age twenty-six she would be fearing for her life. Everything was going as planned, until her husband started showing a side of himself she didn’t know existed. Failed attempts at leaving him have now left her fighting for her life. Literally. She knows she has to figure out a plan to free herself from his tight grip, but it’s harder than she imagined.
Rig endured much pain after a tragedy left him trying to figure out his place in the world. He now plows through situations, leaving nothing safe in his wake. He lives for the thrill of danger and loves to be on the open road. He doesn’t mix business with pleasure, and he didn’t expect to fall in love with the girl he is hiding out.
When things get too intense between Clarissa and Rig, he decides he can no longer be her safety net. With his feelings clouding his judgment, it’s hard for him to choose between right and wrong.
Will Rig be able to figure out what he wants in time to save Clarissa’s life, or will she become another statistic of domestic abuse?



 



Why are we limited to only 5 stars? This is definitely worth many more than that. This is such an emotionally charged read that you will need some tissue handy. Its been a while since I have had a really emotional read and this one was just that.

Clarissa at the age of 26 is in the fight of her life to get out of a life and marriage that turned violent. Steven her husband is controlling and if things are not done just the way he wants them she risks the abuse he will give her. Every time she has tried to leave Steve has always found her.

When she realizes she needs help in order to get out and to stay unfound by Steve she takes a chance in the small window of opportunity she has. Rig helps her slowly regain her freedom and reclaim her life as Parker. There friendship slowly progresses but can it ever work? Will she ever be free of her past in order to have a future with Rig?

This book was an amazing yet emotional roller coaster ride for me and I loved it. Domestic abuse happens more than people think and the way that Zele captured it and wrote about it just amazes me. This story is not all about the abuse but the fact that someone who is in that situation can get out of it and work to overcome it. Fabulously told.






F.T. Zele lives in Southern California with her Husband and 3 Sons.

She is taking her passion for books and making it her reality with writing, bringing these voices to life. She loves interacting with others talking about great Books and Book Boyfriends.

The best word to describe her is Winetastic!
