Pulse by Gail McHugh



Pulse (Collide, #2)
Synopsis
(Pulse is the sequel to Collide Volume 1)


How do you keep existing when your heart is so splintered, so completely torn to shreds, your pulse is fading?

You’re…broken. How do you move forward when every breath is nothing more than a constant ache? Living becomes an insidious reminder that you threw away the single largest part of yourself. Your… soul. No amount of distraction can pull you from the torture of losing your…life.

Now that Emily Cooper has walked away from her first love, she finds herself running toward her only love. Unraveling fast, but clinging to hope, Emily risks all she has left on the man that has consumed her every thought and dream since the day they met. Will Gavin take her back? And if so, will their reunion be a collision of two hearts destined to complete one another and rekindle a love that knew no boundaries? Or will scars from their past rip open, tearing slowly at what each of them was meant to be? Can fate, the ultimate game changer, mend the shattered road it laid out from the start?

Only time will tell…

Tick-Tock…


Reviews:

At the end of Collide, which I have to say has been one of my favorite reads, I seethed with hatred towards Dillon's character. My feelings towards him were validated in Gail McHugh's follow up story Pulse. From the very first chapter, Dillon continues to rear his ugly little head which creates a chain reaction of events.

Emily and Gavin are destined to be together.  They share such a passionate and 'shmexy' relationship that comes to life through the author's masterful writing. They have developed such a deep seeded love for one another that almost seems in breakable.  Almost....

"When I look at you, I feel like I'm looking at the other half of myself.  You've filled the empty space in my soul, and because of that, you're a Goddess to me. That's the way I'm always going to treat you.  For the rest of your life. I promise you that."

In Pulse, Emily continues to struggle with the loss of her mother. But through the love of Gavin, as well as her friends and family, she is able to break free and become a confident woman.

I seriously couldn't put the book down.  One chapter in particular had me gasping 'Oh My God' and wanting to throw my kindle across the room (you'll know which one when you read it)!  All I can say is way to keep the readers on our toes!!
 This book rocked!  Gail McHugh's writing envelops the reader in such a tight cocoon that you never want to escape!

In Gavin's words, "Its impossible not to fall in love with you...we were written for one another, and I wouldn't change one line in our romance novel. The good, the bad, and the in between.  It's ours.  We own it."   - Kelly

Author Bio:  Gail McHugh
I've always been a lover of writing, but mostly dabbled in creating poetry while raising my three beautiful children. I am grateful my husband of fifteen years has supported me—albeit sometimes kicking and screaming—as I pursue this "hobby" of mine. Without his help, writing would be an impossible endeavor.

In late June 2012, I felt an urgent tug of my pen, and I began writing one of my first novels, Collide. Although I thought it might never see the light of day, it gave me the courage to plunge headfirst onto a path I had never considered before.

  19. I'm really excited to be able to finally know the conclusion to this story. I've had this knot in my stomach for Emily since the end of Collide. The anticipation to free that knot has been killing me. I'm very excited to find out if Emily and Gavin get the happy ending they deserve. I'm also curious to know what happens to Dillon.
