Escape to The UnKnown
Expert
We walked inside the restaurant of the very small Angelo’s. It was busy because it was a Saturday night. The walls were painted a very dark red and each table was outfitted with a matching red table cloth with a lit candle sitting on top of it.“Very romantic, Mr. Mitchell.”“I try my best, Miss Scott.” The waitress walked over and took us to a very small, quiet booth in the back of the restaurant.
When we reached it there were a dozen white roses sitting there. I was confused, had he planned this?“Drake, you have already given me flowers. This is too much.”
“I can never give you enough. I want to give you the world. Do you know what the white rose signifies?” He pulled me down into the booth with him.
“I don’t, but they are just as beautiful as the red ones you gave me.”
“The white rose signifies purity and innocence. The red rose signifies love, beauty, courage, and respect. And together they
signify unity. Baby, you are those things to me. You are my heart.” He kissed the back of my hand. “You are as pure as the driven snow.” He kissed it again. “And you are as beautiful as an angel descending from heaven.” Drake’s eyes danced with hope and love. I could see that he truly loved me. Where did this man come from? Tears were beginning to form in my eyes.
“And together,” he pulled out a single white rose and a single red one and laced the stems together. “We are strong. We can’t be broken.” By the time he finished I was a blubbering fool. I was so happy in that exact moment.
“I love you with all my heart,” he whispered lovingly. I closed my eyes and savored his every word. I hadn’t ever known love like this. I never wanted to let it go. “Baby, you ok?”
“Yes. I love you so much. I can’t believe you did this. My makeup is probably running.” I wiped the tears from my eyes. Who knows what I look like right now, but I couldn’t help it. This was just all too wonderful not to cry.

The Unknown by Lara HenleyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
**** I received an ARC copy for an honest review ****
First thing I have to say is that this is the first book that I read from this author.
I really enjoy reading this story, I found this to be a beautiful love story about love at first sight, I love the characters and the twist that it has I was not expecting it, I will keep this short since I don't want to give anything away, I love it how it is told from both point of view, and how the characters get to solve their problems right away, this is a quick story to read I read it in one day but that was cause I couldn't put the book down.
The story begins with Misty coming out of the foster care house, once she turned eighteen she had to leave, she pack the few things that she own and she was on her way, walking down the road she end up on a Diner, where she call her aunt Sylvia to let her know that she was heading her way, the only problem was that she did not know how she was gone make it to Florida with the little bit of money that the state gave her, that's when Drake walks in and hear the conversation that she is having on the phone, when Drake was about to leave he ask her is she wanted a ride, Misty did not have any other choice than to accept his help, Misty and Drake new from the first time that they saw each other they had falling in love it was love at first sight.
I really like this book and I cant wait to read the second book. I hope that once you read it that you get to enjoy and love it as much as I did.
Author Lara Henley THANK YOU for introducing me to this great characters and this wonderful book.
