She was the one for me.
The one that I knew would be mine forever until I made the biggest mistake. I pushed her away and Iâve regretted that decision ever since. Iâve tried to move on, tried to put the memory of her behind me, but sheâs always consuming my thoughts. Now, sheâs back in our hometown, trying to rebuild a new life. I know sheâs keeping secrets. She tries to hide them from me, and I will do whatever it takes to prove that Iâm the one she needs. Because Shelby Ross is the other part of me that I canât live without and I refuse to let her go again.
Shelby
He broke my heart.
I never thought I would be able to pick of the pieces he left behind. When he let me go, I ran away from it all, thinking it was the easiest thing to do. But, running has a price and Iâve paid it in full for years. Now, Iâm back where it all began, back to putting my life together and starting over. It shouldâve been easy, but Carter Harlow is reawakening long buried emotions that I thought were gone. He wants to make me his again. I canât let that happen. He ruined me, broke me, and Iâm afraid Iâll never survive it a second time around.
