Synopsis</ strong>
You get to the point where you can just say it. There was never anything special about me, except my father is rich and important. That's why it happened. It was just a normal Tuesday afternoon. I was twenty-three and thinking about my new designer boots. They kidnapped me for ransom. They raped me before I was rescued. My therapist says that talking about it means I'm starting to heal. I don't really think I am. It's even harder to talk about Gideon. He couldn’t save me when it really mattered, so he keeps trying to save me now. He refuses to give up on me, and I can’t make him understand. There are some things you just can’t be saved from. Warning: Salvation is a love story that follows a difficult path of healing after sexual assault. It is a true contemporary romance, but it addresses very hard issues, including rape and attempted suicide. Please consider whether this book is for you.Buy the Book

Review
This book was very emotional from the very beginning all the way to the last sentence. Diana is kidnapped and thrown into a room with Gideon, an undercover FBI agent. He tries to save her but is outnumbered and she ends up getting raped. Gideon spends the rest of the book trying to be there for Diana. He wants to help her in any way he can. Diana feels she is just a project for him and can't believe Gideon would really ever want to be with someone as broken as she is.
I loved the intensity of these two characters. I could feel all the pain they were going through. My heart broke for them. But Gideon never gives up on Diana. And he is the most patient person you will ever meet. It's beautiful to see when they finally are able get rid of the demons from their tragic ordeal. If you are hesitant about reading this book because of the rape scene, don't be. It's very short and not detailed.
This is the first book I've read by Noelle Adams but definitely won't be my last. I loved it!
