The First Book That Scared Me
What was the first book that moved you? Scared you, made you cry, disturbed your view of the world?
I’ve already talked about the first book that scared me a few weeks ago. The book I want to talk about today is the first book that made me scared to be a woman out in the world, thinking I could also just as easily be kidnapped. It also made me question things you think you know about others. It also broke my heart a little bit.
A rootless foster child, Julie Mathison had blossomed under the love showered upon her by her adoptive family. Now a lovely and vivacious young woman, she was a respected teacher in her small Texas town, and she passionately lived her ideals. Julie was determined to give back all the kindness she’d received; nothing and no one would ever shatter the perfect life she had fashioned.
Zachary Benedict was an actor/director whose Academy Award-winning career had been shattered when he was wrongly convicted of murdering his wife. After the tall, ruggedly handsome Zack escaped from a Texas prison, he abducted Julie and forced her to drive him to his Colorado mountain hideout. She was outraged, cautious, and unable to ignore the instincts that whispered of his innocence. He was cynical, wary, and increasingly attracted to her. Passion was about to capture them both in its fierce embrace…but the journey to trust, true commitment, and proving Zack’s innocence was just beginning….

Hi,
Some books that I found moving were Night, Tuesday’s with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven. These books literally brought me to tears.
