However, Dillon is a manipulative, abusive, piece of shit, and he will not just give up. She shows that as women we can overcome abusive relationships and there is help available. Emily finds strength throughout this book and she is no longer a victim. Emily Cooper has left Dillon the douchemonkey on the night before their wedding after allowing him to basically use her and completely mind fuck her into submission, I don’t really know what else to call it, other than WRONG. Pulse is completely and totally everything I would have ever hoped it would be! I had a love/hate relationship with the book, because I absolutely loved the story but hated how Emily allowed the abuse in her relationship with Dillon to continue. It was very important to me to get it right, since this book was very personal to me, and probably was one of the first true book hangovers I suffered from.īefore starting Schmexy Girl Book Blog (notice the similarity in the name?) I was an extremely avid reader, I purchased Collide the week it was released.

I reviewed Collide by Gail McHugh when we started our blog. Will Gavin take her back? And if so, will their reunion be a collision of two hearts destined to complete one another and rekindle a love that knew no boundaries? Or will scars from their past rip open, tearing slowly at what each of them was meant to be? Can fate, the ultimate game changer, mend the shattered road it laid out from the start? Unraveling fast, but clinging to hope, Emily risks all she has left on the man that has consumed her every thought and dream since the day they met. Now that Emily Cooper has walked away from her first love, she finds herself running toward her only love.

No amount of distraction can pull you from the torture of losing your…life. How do you move forward when every breath is nothing more than a constant ache? Living becomes an insidious reminder that you threw away the single largest part of yourself. How do you keep existing when your heart is so splintered, so completely torn to shreds, your pulse is fading?
