Book 1 in the Back to Life Series
Sahara Lee is damaged by grief and guilt.
Ten years ago her world was turned upside down and she never recovered. One decision, one choice, one accident killed the person she was before.
The old Sahara had family, friends, and the love of her life. Now Sahara isolates herself from any and everything she once loved. Immersing herself in fashion, art, and music as a way to escape the pain of the past, she accepts her lonely existence as penance for the role she played in the accident.
That is, until she meets Tyree Barker.
Back to Life reminds you that living and existing are two completely different ways to go through life. Grief will break you but guilt, guilt will destroy you. And once that happens, what can bring you back to life?

I’m a fan of Allen’s however I haven’t read some of her earlier work, so I figured I would go back to where it all started!Told from Sahara’s POV, the story spans a decade of her life and how she has dealt with an unspeakable tragedy. She’s still having trouble moving on as she feels guilt for her past actions, but when Tyree, her new neighbor, enters the picture, she thinks she may have found the one. Sparks fly between the two, but sometimes things aren’t what they seem.
The story is complex and well written and the characters well-developed. Tyree especially was drool worthy and I would have loved to get inside his head. I did have a couple of issues with the book. I’m not a fan of name dropping of brands and I’ll be honest, I didn’t like Sahara. I know that sounds terrible, but her indecisiveness and insecurity made me feel like she was a weak character, when I got the feeling that she really wasn’t. I’m also kind of jealous of her because I’d be more than happy to take Tyree off her hands. ;)
If you’re a fan of contemporary romance, look no further. Yes, there is a love triangle, however the relationship between Ty and Sahara is an excellent example of watching a romance bloom. But wow, plot twist! Cliffhanger! Lucky for you though, the series is complete and you can jump right into the next book because the last chapter things get juicy!

Sahara Lee is a young woman struggling to overcome a series of events for which she feels responsible. Suffering from PTSD, depression, and an overwhelming sense of guilt, Sahara systematically cuts herself off from those who love her because she is afraid the people closest too her hate her for what occurred, but fails to realize that she is leaving a trail of misery in her wake. Sahara believes herself to be unworthy of love or friendship, but knows that she is an extremely intelligent and savvy businesswoman. In business she is exceedingly successful…the ice queen….never getting close to her co-workers, never sharing anything of herself, and keeps her professional life far away from her personal life. Outwardly she is cool as a cucumber, but inwardly is a whole different story. Sahara is a seething mess of personal conflicts, but also a master of disguise.
Emily Mills is Sahara’s best friend. In college, she aspired to be a professional dancer, but some things are simply not meant to be. She’s known Sahara her whole life and considers her the sister she’s never had. Emily does not know why Sahara has completely distanced herself from the family. She is confused and hurt by Sahara’s physical and emotional distance. But Emily refuses to write Sahara off and is determined to discover the reason for Sahara’s retreat.
Emmanuel Mills is Emily’s older brother and is the object of Sahara’s seemingly unrequited love. A potential NBA candidate, Emmanuel seems to have the world by the balls. Yet appearances can be deceiving. He has watched over Emily and Sahara for their entire life and loves them both dearly. He is very hurt and confused by Sahara’s desertion.
Tyree Barker is a self-made entrepreneur, and owner of ‘Jimmy’s’ – an upscale restaurant and night club. He is handsome, wealthy, and interested! Conveniently he is Sahara’s new neighbor.
Sahara has to return to her hometown in order to testify at the hearing of someone up for an early parole. This person is at the crux of her self-imposed exile from all who care for her. Will she be able to overcome her intense fear and anxiety and confront her past head on? Will all of those whom she has abandoned forgive her and allow her back into their lives? Will Sahara be able to forgive herself, allow herself to put the past behind her, learn to love and be loved, and step into a future bright with possibilities? Or will Sahara simply choose to live in exile, hating herself for her past.
Back To Life is not just a story. It is one woman’s journey back towards the life she deserves. I am very glad I took this journey with Sahara and look forward to continuing with Back To Reality!
Sahara have a lot of baggage. She is affected by an accident that happened 10 years ago that still haunts her. Because of her past, she has kept everyone at a distance. She has alienated her family, her best friend Emily and her first love Emmanuel, who happens to be Emily's brother, thinking that she is the cause of all of their pain.
In comes Tyree, a game changer. At first glance, their attraction is instantaneous and their relationship progresses quickly. However, Sahara's past keeps her from moving past her guilt that she feels from the accident and at times, makes her shutdown, which frustrates Tyree, but he is willing to stand by her, waitng for to be ready to open up to him.
When Sahara have the opportunity to confront her past and the accident that has changed her life, she has to deal with Tyree and his connection that what happened to her 10 years ago, her first love, who is determined to win her back and also trying to come to terms with what happened on that tragic day.
When I started this book, I was immediately hooked. The roller coaster of emotions that was felt throughout almost gave a whiplash. There are time that you can feels Sahara's pain. It felt that you were going through it with her. You could feel when she finally opens herself up to Tyree. You laugh, cry and get angry with her. Music played an important role throughout the novel. Which I loved. Danielle use of music at some climatic points within the book, I could here it, while I was reading the book and heightened the emotions that I was feeling while reading. And made me love the book even more. The novel does end in a cliffhanger, which usually annoys me to no end, but I'm not ready to leave this story and I'm anxiously waiting for the next book.
