Slow Approach to Midnight C J Baldwin

Helena should have had a simple upbringing. Hard work, marriage, children. But life had other plans. It seemed as though she might have been destined to be with Willem, but fate can be cruel sometimes. When she is thrust into a world of violence and pain, full of hardship, a life with no end, everything seems hopeless. But even in the darkness, there is hope. The question is, will Helena find the will to survive? Or will she simply continue to exist, the shell of who she once was? War and servitude was all Willem knew. He had dedicated his life to the protection of the King...but the moment he laid eyes on Helena, he knew nothing would be the same. Nothing could have prepared him for the truth. *Book is recommended for 18+ -contains adult themes and sexual content. ***Trigger warning*** Contains scenes of sexual assault and/or violence which may be triggering to some readers.
