It's a...Reverse Harem


Eight years ago, nine year old Olivia Byrd was abducted on her way to school leaving no trace. With no memory of how, she has now escaped and finds herself running for her life, fleeing eight years of darkness, pain and silence, suddenly terrified by every sound and movement around her. Rescued by police, she finds the life she left behind long gone. Instead, surrounded by a world she now has very little knowledge or experience of, she is lost, scared and alone, drowning in a sea of harrowing flashbacks and soul destroying nightmares. Just when her terrifying memories threaten to pull her under for good, a light appears, in the shape of Dr Xander King. He has been where she is, scared and alone and he wants to do all he can to help her, including bringing her into the amazing family that, years earlier, had rescued him. In a home she does not know or want, Olivia finds a family she didn't realise she needed, and four men who will forever change her life. They do all they can to show her the way out of the terrifying darkness and into the light, and to help her discover who she is now that she is free. Kade, Kyle, Cole and Matt all have dark pasts of their own, which they still fight every day to survive, but they are determined to show Olivia that together, they can all find a way to repair their shattered pieces and find some happiness. But with the kidnapper's whereabouts unknown, and a serial killer lose on the streets of Chicago, keeping Olivia safe is their first priority. This proves harder than they ever thought, when it becomes obvious Olivia is the key to stopping a series of brutal murders. Now they must do all they can to protect the woman they are all falling fast for, from the evils of this world.

 This is a reverse harem story with one woman and four loving, protective men. It is the first book in the Pieces of Us series. Trigger warning - this book touches on some dark topics, including kidnapping, sexual abuse, violence and more.

Olivia Byrd was abducted at the age of nine.  Eight years later she finally escapes, but with no memory of how she does.  Bruised, battered and it is obvious of the abuse she has suffered over the years.  Olivia is found wondering.  Taken to the hospital it is there she meets a kind Doctor.  Dr. Xander King recognizes one who has suffered, just like he had.  When it is discovered that her parents have passed and she is left all alone with no place to go , Dr. King  has a solution.  The same family that helped him, can help her.  So she goes to live with a family that she does not know.  But one that opens their arms up to the scarred girl that needs a loving home.  There she meets four men who will change her life forever.  They will protect her, teach her and love her.  Each one having a dark past of their own, they fight for her.  But with a past that is still looking for her and a serial killer out on the loose, can the guys protect the girl that they have come to love? 


So I came upon this by accident, and absolutely fell in love.  I could not put down my kindle.  Every step of the way I was hooked on Olivia and her story.  What a story it is too.  I will say that if you have a trigger warning for kidnapping, sexual abuse, and violence you may want to go slow on this one. 

Olivia is such a strong character, and I fell hard for her.  Going through what she had for years,
learning things all over, not to mention new things.  Learning to trust, love and recover is going to be a hard road for her, but she does it.  With the help of this loving family.  I want to be a part of this family.  You feel the love and support that they give her and it just melts you.

Kade, Kyle, Cole and Matt take her in and protect her.  They understand her fears, hurts and mind.  The only way someone who has been through the same kind of past can.  These guys will melt you heart and win you over just like they did me. 

The story reads like you are watching a movie.  The descriptiveness of the story just flows so perfect.  The characters are engaging,  the plot keeps your interest and the pace is just right.  That cliffhanger was an unexpected one, but leaves me needing book two.  So overall this is a darker read, and if you do not have any triggers, a great one for an interesting read that will leave you needing more of Olivia and her men.
