F.T. Zele - Escaping Parker



This book was the first book I've read from F.T. Zele.  I love discovering new authors!  I was immediately pulled into the story and actually read it in a few hours.  However, I'm sad to say I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it either. It was just alright to me.  It was definitely an interesting concept and one I haven't read before (or much of). There was just something about it that made me not be able to say I loved it.  For me, the best part was at the very end of the story.  It really picked up and I found myself not being able to put it down.  It was nail biting and I had to find out what what was going to happen to the characters! 

I enjoyed how we got to know the characters and saw their relationship develop over several months time.  I understand the stress Clarissa was under and we saw how her parents raised her to be a strong, independent woman but due to her marriage, she lost herself.  Then, after things seem to be going ok, she lashes out, and it has major repercussions in her life.  And there's also huge loss for her.  I felt like I didn't truly connect with these characters.  It was an enjoyable read and I would recommend it.  





Clarissa never thought at age twenty-six she would be fearing for her life. Everything was going as planned, until her husband started showing a side of himself she didn’t know existed. Failed attempts at leaving him have now left her fighting for her life. Literally. She knows she has to figure out a plan to free herself from his tight grip, but it’s harder than she imagined. 

Rig endured much pain after a tragedy left him trying to figure out his place in the world. He now plows through situations, leaving nothing safe in his wake. He lives for the thrill of danger and loves to be on the open road. He doesn’t mix business with pleasure, and he didn’t expect to fall in love with the girl he is hiding out. 

When things get too intense between Clarissa and Rig, he decides he can no longer be her safety net. With his feelings clouding his judgment, it’s hard for him to choose between right and wrong. 

Will Rig be able to figure out what he wants in time to save Clarissa’s life, or will she become another statistic of domestic abuse?


I’m running…

Trying to escape…

My life depends on it…

I don’t know where I’m going…

I’m running into the arms of a complete stranger…

Unable to trust…

Afraid of being caught…

It’s only then I fall in love…

Knowing it’s wrong, only makes me want him more…

Can he save me…

Can I save him…

Or will it be too late…
