Tour Stop: Excerpt from Sharing Harper by V. Murphy




A pain to hard to understand
A struggle too deep to reach. 
A love too complicated to work…but too intense to let go. 
Harper Mae ran as far away as she could from her abusive past. She went to a different city and numbed her pain by using men, never sleeping with the same guy more than once. 
Ryder worked at a coffee shop trying blend in with the rest of the world, desperately trying to live a normal life. After leaving a relationship and losing his family, he vowed never to fall in love again.

Until one day they are unexpectedly drawn to each other unable to let go.
Harper and Ryder’s turbulent relationship, two people who are struggling to find themselves, realize the answer lies within each other. 

Secrets, so deep, that both have, end up surfacing causing irrevocable pain. 
Will their love be strong enough to survive or will their pain be the downfall to their relationship? 
Will Harper open up enough to share her past with Ryder or will he be just another number on her list?

EXCERPT

“I meant when I said I loved you.” He throttled with tears streaming down his face in rapid succession.
There was something deep down inside of me that still wanted to run away; away from these problems that were plaguing my life, but there stood a man in front of me baring his soul and opening up a new world for me. I wanted to cling to him and tell him everything was going to be okay. I wanted to make love to him and hold him throughout the night. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with a man who knew all my secrets and still wanted to be with me. I wanted to tell him I loved every single ounce of him including his past. I wanted to meet his daughter and get to know her and let him understand that everything was going to be alright.
“I love you too,” I murmured into his ear just as he grabbed my face and planted his plush lips into mine tenderly."
