Synopsis:
Sometimes, relationships can be deadly.
Terri thought she was marrying a strong, loving man, only to find that beneath that
handsome face lies something cold, brutal, and dangerous. After years of abuse,
Randy takes things a little too far, and Terri finally summons the courage to take
matters into her own hands and make her escape. But freedom comes at a price.
Forging a new life, Terri tries to forget her past, but she can't help looking over her shoulder at every turn. When prison bars can no longer hold Randy, and her past comes knocking, Terri finds that the strength to trust again may be her only salvation.
About the Author:
Brandi Salazar started writing poetry, short stories, and novels at a very young age, weaving tales to share with her friends that were geared toward making them laugh. Today her writing habits reflect that, ranging from mystery/suspense/thriller to paranormal and YA romance, and no matter how different her works may be, you can always find a healthy dose of action, romance, and humor. Under the pen name J.C. Valentine, she also writes erotic romance fiction.
A longtime resident of Ohio, Brandi lives with her husband, three children, a dog and five cats that keep her very busy. She holds a degree in Business and has plans to continue her education so she can one day become an editor to authors everywhere. When she isn’t crafting her next novel, toiling away at schoolwork, or hanging out with family, you can find her curled up in her favorite chair with her nose buried in a book.
My Thoughts...
As you know, I have a toddler at home. I don't get a lot of time to read. Usually just while I'm eating breakfast in the morning or occasionally while I'm on lunch at work. I finished "Spring Cleaning" the same day I downloaded it to my Nook. It was really, really good. The book is written to alternate the story from the point of view of each of the main characters. I loved how you can watch Terri grow stronger as the book progresses to it's finale, where she finally takes a stand and faces her fear.
Brandi Salazar does a great job of leaving you wanting more. It was hard to put down this book and I would highly recommend reading it! The only thing that made me sad was that it was over so quickly. It is not a very long book. But while short, Brandi does an excellent job of filling in all the necessary detail and giving you the stories that made the characters who they are. "Spring Cleaning" is definitely a book I will be reading again and I suggest you read it as well.
