Damian has a troubled past of his own. He vows to steer clear of love, that is until he meets Lilah--a woman whose secret is slowly consuming her. One look and he knows they've met before but he doesn't know where.
Determined to help her escape the violent relationship she can't seem to leave, he befriends her, vowing to keep her safe, but protecting Lilah comes at a price.
When their attraction turns into passion and their secrets threaten to tear them apart, will they fight for one another? Or will their demons swallow them whole?

BOOKISH STACY RATING: 🌟🌟🌟
Fragile Scars is the debut novel of Lilian Harris and it is the story of Lilah and Damian. From the moment I read the blurb, I was very excited to read this. If you have triggers, please pay attention to the author's warning--there is some very tough subject matter and graphic scenes that will not be for everyone. I thought Ms. Harris did an excellent job with this subject matter though--it felt very real. I don't want to give too much away so I'll just say there was a lot that happened really fast in this book and I think that was the reason that I felt slightly disconnected from the characters. The timeline just seemed a bit rushed to me, especially considering what Lilah had been through. That being said, I was so blown away by the author's writing and think she is only going to get better with time. I also thought she did any excellent job with the suspense angle. The supporting characters that were introduced have me very curious and I will definitely be looking out for the next book in this series.

Author Bio
For Lilian,
a love of writing began with a love of books. From Goosebumps to romance novels
with sexy men on the cover, she loved them all. It’s no surprise that at the
age of eight she started writing poetry and lyrics and hasn’t stopped writing
since.
She was
born in Azerbaijan, and currently resides in Long Island, N.Y. with her
husband, two kids, and a dog named Gatorade. Even though she has a law degree,
she isn’t currently practicing. When she isn’t reading or writing, Lilian is
baking or cooking up a storm. And once the kids are in bed, there’s usually a
glass of red in her hand. Can’t just survive on coffee alone!
