Blog Tour: Finding Me by S.K. Hartley

FindingMe_TourBannerSynopsis
The lines are blurred between what is real and what isn't, the darkness that was once a place I feared was now a place of safety. If I stayed in the darkness, the hellish reality of what was truly happening no longer seemed real.

But I was about to be pulled out from under the consuming blanket of dark shadows, and plunged into the murky depths of my past. I was about to be shown my demons and all it's evil sides, all of it's pain and grief. I could only hope I survive it.

What happens when the world you once knew crumbles and falls at your feet? 

Who will find me? Who will save me from my demons?


My dark prince or my white knight...

And will I find myself in the process.

Melanie says...

"Music can heal, hurt, break and maybe sometimes fix."
 
Finding Me picks up where Finding You left off after that crazy cliffhanger. Do not read this book until you have read the first book. You would be totally lost and be missing half of the story.
 
He is staring right at me. No, not right at me. Right through me, seeing through all the layers of pain, of hurt and guilt. He is seeing through everything and finally seeing me.
 
Neva, quite literally has to fight for her life, in more ways than one. Since you have read Finding You, you already know that Neva is in love with both Logan, her protector and her brothers best friend and Angel, the beautiful musician that she meets in one of her music classes. She makes her decision, only to find out too late that she made the wrong one.
 I want him, I need him, I love him.
 
In Finding Me, all of the wholes and unanswered questions will be answered. Why Angel reacted strange when she asked about his father and why he let his father yell at her without even a protest.
 
I can't really say much more without ruining the plot and giving the whole story away. I can say that the book ends with a good outcome but most of the story was pretty sad - even dark at times. The sex was much lighter too because Neva spent a lot of time trying to get well.
 
We are both trying to fix each other from the pain we have caused. When trying to find her through the darkness, in reality I realized I was also finding myself. We both were. I couldn’t love Neva anymore if I tried. She is it for me, the woman who I would spend the rest of my life holding, protecting and loving. She is my purpose and I’ll be damned if I screw it up. 
I think that if you enjoyed the first book, then this one should not disappoint.

"Neva, don't walk away from me!" Logan spits.

He is angry. What right did he have to be angry with me? I wasn't the one flirting with another girl. Why was he even here anyway? "Go away, Logan!" I say, walking faster.

Suddenly my arms are latched to my back and I am being spun around. My heartbeat picks up around twenty notches as I come eye to eye with Logan.

"Why the hell are you always running from me? I can't take it when you run from me!"

"I'm not doing this now. Let me go." I say, trying to get my wrist free from his grasp.

"No, we are doing this now. Why the hell did you run?"

"We're all running from something, Logan." I spit, repeating Dex's words.

"You still don't get it do you? How much clearer do I need to be for you to understand that I'm not going anywhere? I have been in love with you for ten years, Neva! Ten years. It isn't just going to go away!"

"I never asked you to love me! Why are you doing this to me?" "Because I hate seeing you fall and not get back up. I want to be the one to catch you, but you keep pushing me away!"

"What do you want from me?" I whisper.

"You. Just you. All of you. Every broken piece."

I bow my head. He releases my wrists from behind my back, and they drop to my side. I can't give him what he wants. I just can't do it. I will break him. Christ, I break myself on a daily basis.

"I can't give you that." I say, taking a step back.

"I'm not giving you up without a fight, Neva. You can't just walk away from us!"

"I am protecting you the only way I know how."

"I don't need protecting. What part of me looks like it needs protecting?"

"Your heart." I whisper. I gulp back the tears that were begging to release. I would not cry. But every time I pushed back that feeling, it hurt just a little bit more.

"You're breaking it right now." He whispers, taking a step towards me.

"I will break it over and over again, Logan. My nightmares will hurt you, my fear of people being ripped away from me will gut you, and my anxiety will spike yours."

"I can take pain, Neva. I had dealt with it for the past three weeks. I would rather have the pain with you, than without you."

"I … I." The words are at the tip of my tongue. Waiting to release, but I know if I say them, everything will change. Nothing will be the same and I will drag him into the pit of hell where my heart lies and my nightmares are real.

"I can't."
