Touch

Never underestimate the healing power of touch . . .
Alex Sutton has issues. She doesn't allow relationships, and she has built her world around the fact that she can't stand any type of physical contact with other people. She has resigned herself to a lonely existence of duty and obedience to her family.
Then tragedy strikes, and Alex's meticulously regimented world crumbles around her. Heartbroken and paralyzed by grief, she isn't sure she'll be able to carry on. Until an unexpected friend enters her life, her home, and her heart, and teaches her how to cope.
But as Alex learns to deal with her new situation, she begins to wonder if their relationship is really what it seems to be. Is she truly being set free? Or is she simply swapping one cage for another?
