Collect Let It Be Me Interpreted By Toni Aleo Disseminated As Script
Get a blanket and maybe a glass of wine, youre going to need it, because my story isnt a happy one, well no, I take that back.
It can be happy, I can be happy I just have to get there, I have to fight for it, So sit back and let me explain how the fight was woken inside me,
It starts and ends with Tucker McCloud,
Ok are you ready because this story is more a friendship than anything and the minute you open it you enter a deep friendship with Violet.
Toni Aleo tells this story a little different its unique, its honest and it plays out like real life.
This is a story that stays with you, moves you, it is a story that leaves you with pictures you will forever remember and secrets you will never forget.
I feel like I have to warn that this is a sensitive subject one that is as much about strength, love, determination as it is about rape, abuse, and hate.
Its REAL and its an experience that no matter where you stand you will feel it,
See that woman there
The one with beautiful long wavy blonde hair that is cascading down her shoulders with her arms up protecting her eyes and face
Thats me.
Violet Moore.
When you meet Violet you right away envision this, beautiful, timid, young women that could be anyone of us.
And you immediately start saying, “OK why is she with this bastard of a man” You start saying, “Leave Him, run away, hide, punch him in his face!!” But as you read on Violet explains choices arent always that easy.
She teaches you why women cant just walk away, The fear they live with, the words the live with and she shows you the strength they really have.
We watch as our friend gets these bruises and these verbal attacks, you want to step into the book, you want her to have a friend and thats when fate steps in and we meet The McClouds.
I didnt know it then, but the McClouds were going to change my life.
AND OMG DO YOU MEET THE MCCLOUDS!!! Tucker in one word is, . . I can't explain him in one word! He is like a million words and all of them start with Ah or Oh.
Hes beautiful, Light brown hair that looks like he spent most of the day running his fingers through it, whiskey colored brown eyes that really I am getting lost in right now.
He has dark brown scruff on his chin and a little along his upper lip and oh Lord, his lips.
They are full, a light peach color that are currently curved in a way that makes my unused girlie parts scream.
Are your girlie parts screaming
Ummm yeah Tucker is the silver lining in this story, he is the knight, he is the friend, and he makes you swoon like no other.
HE IS AMAZING!!
My insides are clenching, my heart is pounding and I swear to God, I couldnt form a word if someone asked me something.
Yeah I have no words, I can tell you to be prepared, be prepared to feel something you might have never experienced, be prepared to form a bond so strong you cant help but feel broken, you can t help but feel proud, and you definitely might want to invest in some tissues.
And have a spare pair of panties available,
My panties Shit, I might as well be sitting in water,
I cant thank Toni enough for sharing this story with me and I cannot express how much I loved it and how much I think everyone needs to experience it!!STARS AND a couple tears so go ahead.
Leave fear at the door and just jump in,
You are going to be so glad you did!!!
gritty and raw STARS
Violet has been living her life in fear.
You see, to the outside world she is this beautiful, confident woman who has a loving husband, a successful career and everything she could ever hope for.
But if you look closely enough you'll see that this beautiful woman is broken, The girl who most women envy has a dark secret that she keeps hidden behind impenetrable walls and her smile hides the pain and suffering that she lives through everyday.
You see that gorgeous husband of hers Well he maybe gorgeous on the outside but to Violet he is her tormentor, her punisher and her worst enemy.
For the last three years Violet has had to live with the physical and emotional abuse at the hands of her husband Rob.
Their story starts out with butterflies and rainbows but then it suddenly takes a turn for the worst, and Violets feels as if she has no power to stop this vicious cycle.
That is until she meets Tucker McCloud,
Tucker McCloud has been traveling and experiencing life around the world, After his father decides that it's time to retire, Tucker steps in to take over his practice and will now be working closely with Violet, his new office manager.
There's an unmistakeable connection and attraction between the both of them but there's no way he can act on it because she belongs to another.
It's not long before Tucker starts to notice unusual things about Violet and his suspicions are cemented when he finally meets her husband Rob.
He has always suspected that there's more to it but she never confirms what he knows is happening behind closed doors.
Is he strong enough to convince the woman he has grown to care about seek the help she needs to get away from this abusive relationship and take the first steps to recovery or will he be too late.
This story really hits close to home, Having known someone who has gone through a similar experience this was really hard to read at times.
Let it be Me was a beautiful written book about how a woman who used to be so full of life and vibrant turn into a lifeless zombie who has been alienated away from her friends and family by the person in her life that had promised to honour and cherish her.
This book paints a graphic example of how her husbands abuse has broken and torn her apart, but it also shows her struggle and fight to regain control of her life and happiness.
The characters in this book were amazing, Violet's road to freedom was not an easy one but it was beautiful to witness how no matter how much she has been through she will fight till her last breath to become the person she used to be before Rob.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone but it's definitely not for the faint hearted, a lot of the scenes were quite graphic and it really was heart breaking seeing first hand the abuse that Violet went through.
All in all I really enjoyed Violet's journey to freedom,
"He has been the light through this dark time" STARS!!!
"No woman should feel like she isnt worth the love of a good man and if for some reason you hear my story and think you cant get out, let me tell you, you can.
It wont be easy and youll want to quit, but you can do it, You can succeed. Just believe in yourself. Leave fear at the door and just jump in, The world is at your fingertips and you deserve it, You can be happy, you know Dont ever forget that, "
Tenía este libro desde hace mucho en mi lista de espera hasta que por fin me decidí a leerlo y no me arrepiento.
Es una historia hermosa detrás de algo tan horrible, La mayor parte de la historia quería llorar y tenía que parpadear para alejar las lágrimas, e inhalar y exhalar para poder continuar leyendo.
Violet Moore sufre de violencia doméstica por parte de su esposo Rob Moore, un enfermero.
Es difícil vivir en una situación así, lo he escuchado y leído de muchas personas de la vida real.
La mayoria de los casos las mujeres viven con ese miedo que no las deja salir de ese hoyo en el que están.
Creo que todas esas mujeres necesitan ayuda, pero desgraciadamente muchas mujeres no la obtienen,
"I dont know how to do this on my own, Im scared, terrified, to face a day without him Tucker, This damn fear in me just wont go away, "
Violet Moore tiene esa suerte de encontrar a alguien que la ayude, que la apoye y estoy más que agradecida por ese personaje tan bello del cual me enamoré.
. . Tucker McDonalds.
"Ill be behind you one hundred percent, I will be here when you need me, Ill give you the strength and support you need, every step of the way, You will never feel alone ever again, ”
Cuando Rob decide apartar a Violet de su familia y se la lleva a Maplewood, Tennessee, ella empieza a trabajar con el Dr.
McCloud, el cual decide darse un descanso y pasar tiempo con su esposa, por lo que su hijo se queda al frente y es ahí cuando entra nuestro Héroe, Tucker McCloud.
Quedé absolutamente enamorada de él, es un amor, es todo lo que una mujer como Violet se merecía tener.
Este personaje creado es tan hermoso y estoy segura que nunca lo olvidaré, El la apoya de mil maneras, le da todo su respeto, es su hombro para llorar, su mejor amigo, y es que el sólo escribir sobre él, me dan ganas de llorar, porque se me vienen a la cabeza todas y cada una de las cosas que hizo por ella y siento ese amor, ese amor que le tiene Violet.
Y es que es lo que hace que un libro sea tan maravilloso, esta coneccion que siento con los protagonistas, los sentimientos que tuve en cada página, las lágrimas que derrame.
Tucker se gana poco a poco el corazón y la confianza de Violet, al igual que el mío.
Si bien no le di lasestrellas fue porque no me gustó que Violet tardara tanto tiempo en decidir cambiar su vida, hubo sólo unas cuantas páginas que me hubiera gustado que fuera algo diferente.
Que hubiera sido más rápido el paso de dejar a Rob para asi haber podido leer más sobre ella y Tucker.
"Change is the scariest thing in the world, It is but you know what is worse Regret, "
Pero no hay peros de los porque no recomendaría este libro, Lo recomendaría aly es que aunque es una historia que a la, vez es muy real, horrible, pero que yo amé, porque detrás de todo eso malo con Rob, doy gracias que Violet haya encontrado a Tucker y estoy segura que en.
la. vida real habrá mujeres que pasen por lo mismo, algunas con, finales desastrosos, otras encontrando a su Tucker,
"Get a blanket and maybe a glass of wine, youre going to need it, because my story isnt a happy one, well no, I take that back.
It can be happy, I can be happy I just have to get there, I have to fight for it, So sit back and let me explain how the fight was woken inside me, It all starts with Tucker McCloud, ".
