~ Synopsis ~

*A novella to the best-selling New Adult novel STRIPPED*

The sexual content in this novella is more explicit than STRIPPED and is recommended for 17+

She was broken when I met her, shattered from the death of her sister and running from love. Not to sound like an egotistical douche or anything, but I fixed her. Put her back together, filled in the cracks, and made her whole. A true fairytale in her eyes. 

But now real life is getting in the way: school, jobs, and the unexpected opportunity to travel the world under a legendary photographer. This internship will open doors not even my father's influence could. It's something I've been waiting all my life for. But so is Quinn, and accepting this internship will mean leaving her. 

And breaking her all over again.

~ My Thoughts ~

My Rating: 3 / 5

I read Stripped and Without You back to back in one day. I couldn't leave Quinn and Torrin, and when it was over, I couldn't stop thinking about this couple. Stripped left such a deep impression on me that I almost feel like it wasn't fair of me to read them so close together. 

While I was wanting more of Quinn and Torrin, I find that I enjoy Quinn's point-of-view more than Torrin's. Nothing against Torrin - I love him! I think I wasn't quite ready for them to be tested quite so soon after just getting together. 

I was disappointed with Torrin in this novella because he underestimates Quinn - she wouldn't stand in the way of his dream, and he should know that. I loved the sizzle of their relationship being explored further here, and overall, I liked reading more of Quinn and Torrin's story.

Summary from Goodreads:

*A novella to the best-selling New Adult novel STRIPPED*

I’m the knight on the white horse in her eyes, the one who broke down her defenses after her sister’s death until she realized she was capable of love. To her—aside from my name, Torrin Kingsley—I’m perfect.

But there’s a sliver of my past I’ve never shared with her. One that is now haunting me with every breath I take. One she is starting to raise her brow to.

I’m not certain how much longer I can keep it from her. To be honest, I don’t know that it would make a difference anyway, because it seems no matter which path I choose, they all lead to the same end point. A place without Quinn.

My demons run bone deep. I guess burying them forever wasn’t possible.
