Blog Tour: Not Hiding by Leigh Ann Lunsford

Cambree Parker has finally flown the nest and headed off to college in a different state, truly alone for the first time. Trying to escape from her sisters shadows, she runs from the lies and deceit that have plagued her family for years, and from the boy who stole her heart and shredded it in the process. Once there, she realizes her freedom is not all she hoped it would be. She misses her family, thinks of Max daily, and when she decides she wants to take control, she is attacked, leaving her family to fear for their safety. Can she protect her heart and remain safe when the source of her heartache has taken up permanent residence by her side?

Max Baird knew he messed up. His guilt over Cambree being attacked makes him doubt if he is good enough for her. He just knows he can’t walk away. She has told him she hates the lies, but the one he is keeping can blow her family apart, and he doesn’t know if she will ever forgive him. He has seen his share of sorrow and heartbreak, but he refuses to allow Cambree to suffer at his hands anymore. He will prove to her they can work. Hopefully he isn’t too late.

REVIEW

4.5 Star Review by Lisa Kane

This is Cambree and Max's story. We have had some previous insight into her from Not Enough and Not Leaving, and just small glimpses of Max and his investigation along with his brother Mitch into Brent, the Parker siblings' right hand goon. For some unknown reason Cambree and Max broke up, and it had something to do with lies by omission and another girl. But there are far more serious secrets that Max is holding from Cambrea and when they surface, what will the fallout be for these two?  

"You shut me out months ago over this bullshit, Cambree. Not again. I will let you rest now, but I am telling you, you will hear me out," I warn her.

The other siblings main concern is Cambree. At the end of Not Leaving she was meeting Max in a coffee shop, saw Kamryn come in (the girl we think is the source of their problems and ran out). Max heard her scream and found her hurt and bleeding on the sidewalk. The men who did this to her, ran and got away. But Cambree heard them mention Brent's name over and over. Now practically the whole family is at her bedside in the hospital. Max and Mitch are letting some details about Brent out, but are reserved about their sister Hope's death, or Mitch's real relationship to the Parkers.  

One of the family's fears centers around Dustin and why he is living with the Parkers' parents. But he has his own agenda and is now involved with Brent's daughter Teryn ( I suspect we may be getting a real close look at these two in Dustin's story, coming next.) 

Can Cambree and Max ever reveal everything that they are hiding from each other? Will Brent and the Parkers' parents ever pay for the despicable things they have done? Can this family ever have peace of mind and live their lives without the outside dangers that seem to plague them? 

"I didn't say I was an innocent, but damn it you were. You gave me that, all of it and I don't ever want to think of another person getting any of you. I want that all for me. I want you to keep it all for me. Your mind, your body, and soon, your heart. I want to own that."

This series continues to hold my attention. These characters with their tempers, drama and outbursts are real and likeable and I want to be part of that inner circle they have with each other. Amidst all the chaos there are some funny moments, and some steamy ones, and I look forward to Dustin's story next.

"When I see my future, I see you. Nothing else, just you always by my side."
