SYNOPSIS
When Susan is left orphaned, she begins a harrowing journey through the care system. Left with both mental and physical scars, Susan approaches adulthood with a self-destructive impulse. However, there is hope in the figure of her childhood friend, Max; the first boy she ever kissed.
Now a grown woman, Susan returns to her childhood home of Winchelsea, where she hopes she will find the answer to the gap in her heart that she’s carried with her since she left. With Max by her side, she attempts to find the path her life should have taken, to build a home, to heal old wounds, and to finally create a family that will stop the terrible feeling of something missing.
But Max has a secret, one that risks destroying all hope of a happy ever after, unless they can find a way to heal one another.
Excerpt
His touch was so gentle yet Susan felt it burning deep under her skin. As he caressed her stomach, she couldn't stop herself wanting him. He had completely taken over her body. The only thing she could see was the pure blue sparkle in his eyes; it was like staring at the ocean. She needed to give herself into him. She ran her hands over his shoulders and down his back, pulling him close. There was no more pain and no sorrow. He set her free.

REVIEW
Susan has endured a life that no one should have to go through. Orphaned from the age of ten, she is placed into foster homes that are far from loving, nurturing, and ideal. Susan leaves behind her friend Max, who is completely devastated that she is taken away from him.
When she reaches adulthood, she returns to her home town to begin a new life. She once again meets up with Max. He knows she is damaged and has a true desire to fix her. As they begin a new found relationship, his damaged past rears its ugly head.
As I read this book, I found myself cheering for Susan and Max at times and then wanting to strangle them at other times. It is a fast-paced novella; therefore, I longed for explanation at points where I felt needed further clarification and sometimes I was just selfish and wanted more details. However, I was never bored. I just craved more.
Since the ending is a little bit of a cliffhanger, I am looking forward to the next instalment.
Author Bio
I've always had a passion for reading but over the last several years it has become an obsession, a few months ago I decided to put fingers to keys to keyboard (or pen to paper!) and write Something Missing,a story I’ve had hidden away in the back of my mind for a long time.
Hazel lives in the small town of Rishton in Lancashire. England, with her husband, three children, two cats, dog, rabbit and lizard. She fills her days dashing between school runs, pets and housework and at night she comes to life either writing or watching her favorite program ‘Supernatural’
(yes she is Supernatural obsessed)
Her road to writing started with a love for paranormal romance novels, and after finding a passion for tragic romance she set out on the mission to share her own story. After long nights writing and a lot of ‘Supernatural’ episodes she is finally ready to share ‘Something Missing’. Hazel loves nothing better than sitting with a cup of tea, a chocolate biscuit and a good book.
