Collared

They will never finish falling in love with each other. If you know, you know.

1. COLLARED by Nicole Williams

SYNOPSIS

When a seventeen-year-old girl vanishes, a community is shaken. Parents turn desperate. Friends hold vigils. And the boy who loves her searches.

When a year goes by, the community is recovering. Parents feel hopeless. Friends feel helpless. And the boy who loves her continues his search.

When ten years go by, the community has forgotten. Parents cling to the past. Friends move toward the future. And the boy who loves her… Brings her home.

Jade Childs spent ten years in captivity, but now that she’s back, the real battle for survival begins. The media shadows her. Flashbacks haunt her. Her old life evades her. Her so-called new life rejects her. She spent too many years in the dark to recognize the light. She spent too long repressing her feelings to remember how to express them. She spent a decade abandoning hope and cannot dare letting it back into her life. Jade’s not just defined by what happened to her—she’s collared to it.

When the twenty-seven-year-old woman is found, a community wants to know the story. Parents want to forget the story. Friends want to be a part of the story. And the man who still loves her faces the greatest challenge yet: letting her go.


ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Nicole Williams is a New York Times and USA Today best-selling author of contemporary romance.

She grew up an avid reader and writer who majored in Economics because a Creative Writing degree was lofty and impractical, not to mention a pipe dream. Irony, you wily fiend.

When she isn’t embroiled in a book, she spends her time playing wife and mom to her two favorite people in the world, and referee to their three rescue pets/wildlings.

Nicole lives in the Evergreen State on the quieter side, ideal for an admitted recluse who enjoys the diversity of outdoor endeavors the Great Northwest offers.
