Silenced — Aimee Shaye

"It's hard to move on in life when the shadow of my past is at my heels at all times. Just when I think that I got over the past, and that I'm ready to move on, it sneaks up on me like a jungle cat who's been starving for days on end and needs food." Lauren Reynolds has been married for two years, and has been with her husband, Cooper Reynolds for four years. Everything in their life is perfect: Cooper is a loving, understanding husband who thinks the world of Lauren and Lauren reciprocates those feelings. There's just one problem: for four years, before Lauren and Cooper started dating, she was in an emotionally abusive relationship that still haunts her and eats at her every day. "Silenced" is the story of Lauren's journey to finding absolute happiness in a life that has been ripped to shreds several times. With the help of Cooper, Lauren will overcome and conquer her past, leaving it all where it belongs.
