Saving Scotty by Annie Jocoby

Scotty is reeling from Nick's betrayal. But her feelings over seeing Nick with Portia do not compare to what happens to her when she gets into the clutches of Mr. Lucas. With time running out, Nick is desperate to find her. Even if he does, however, the odds are still stacked against the couple. Scotty must learn to trust Nick if they are ever to make it work. But is she still just too broken to?

Scotty is sure that she was betrayed by Nick, so she wants nothing more to do with him. Unfortunately, her life is endangered by Mr. Lucas, as she is abducted by him and spirited away to an island far away from New York City.

Nick begins a desperate search for Scotty, knowing that every minute that Scotty is in the hands of Mr. Lucas is another minute that she is horribly suffering. But can he find her before too much damage is done? And can he convince her, once and for all, that he did not betray her?

And, in the end, can he finally convince her to truly trust him? Or is she still just too broken?
