Saving Ella by Kirsty Dallas

5.0

Saving Ella is a great book that makes you realize that some women have much different lives than others. That no matter what has happened to them, they wont let the man who ruined them win.

Ella is someone who had struggled with drugs, alcohol, sex, and self harm to except the abuse her step-father gives her. Because of what her step-father has done to her, she wont allow him to win. Which by this, makes her a very strong character. Ella also struggles with self confidence throughout the book but no matter how she feels about herself she always put others before herself.

In the meantime while Ella is trying to make money to help her run to the next state, Jax is trying to help her see that is is more then just a scared women. I just love Jax's character in this book. It shows that the author wanted the hero to be an actually man. By that I mean, he is arrogant, helpful, loving, caring, knows how he feels right then and there. He's not what some would call a "pussy".

Jax and Ella forms a relationship between each other and their love grows to something no one expected. But no matter what happens they make it work. When Jax makes a mistake, he owns it and talks to Ella. Jax knows what Ella's triggers are and he is very careful not to set them off because all he wants to do is to protect her and care for her.

This is a wonderful book and do suggest you read it. It's a very moving book and makes you realize things about another world you wouldn't really think about.
