William Marsch fell in love with Maggie Krieger from the time that he first saw her. From that first moment, he wanted nothing more than to protect her from the violence that she had known her entire life, to show her just how precious she really was. And for a short time, he and Maggie shared their secret love, until it was ripped away, leaving him empty and angry, and Maggie a victim to continued violence. When William returns home six years later, passions are reignited, and he will stop at nothing to reclaim Maggie.There are books that stay with you, books that you cannot stop reading, even though your heart is breaking. WHEN WE COLLIDE is just that sort of book. A.L. Jackson has taken some really tough subject matter, and infused it with passion, grace, and perseverance. I absolutely could not put this book down; it owned me from the very first page. There are things going on in WHEN WE COLLIDE that are called 'triggers,' so I expected this to be a dark and angsty read. I was not prepared for how very beautifully it was handled, and how very vividly real these characters and their story became for me. The fact that a love story could emerge from so bleak a panorama speaks to A.L.'s prowess as an author. I look forward to reading everything else that she writes, and unhesitatingly give this book five stars. This is a tragic and very emotional story about William and Maggie. This book is very well written, at times it was a little hard to keep reading..because of all the emotional baggage that Maggie has.
