To the ones who lived through the worst only to come out stronger.

George –

I graduated school, I took on more at work, I made books a priority and somehow you were still patient with me when I seemed to never stop being busy. You helped me build my castle and I can’t thank you enough. I love you.

Mac –

Joint custody. Forever. I am so beyond happy you found a piece of passion in this world and I cannot wait to see how you make a footprint in this world. Now I get to be your cheerleader, girl!

Amber –

Girl. I can’t. Just imagine me crying and voice messaging you one million times a day like normal only this time is a hailstorm of appreciation for having you. You could never be anything but amazing so don’t let the world’s horrors ever put out that light.

Give Me Books Promotions –

Stalker, loyal customer, annoying, slightly disorganized but always thankful for how smooth you guys make things. Forever yours.

Maria at Steamy Reads –

I am still in such a state of awe at the magic you create.

 

Rule Breakers, Bloggers, Readers, ARC Team & Street Team –

I write for you guys.

All day.

Every day.

All of my stories belong to you.

Take a piece because what mine is yours.

TRIGGER WARNING:

It’s heavy.

It’s deep.

It’s dark.

It’s almost too much, almost all the time.

It’s dark romance and these characters have suffered in the shadows for far too long.

Proceed with caution.

My demons will ruin whatever is left of her halo.

BLURB:

BOWEN

I was living on borrowed everything: time, feelings, motives, even these stale breaths.

I was expired in every way.

No saving me.

He should have lived instead.

He deserved to squeeze every drop out of life and rub it in my face the way he always did.

I was stuck here as half of a person and Eve expected me to be whole enough to fix her.

We were too shattered to ever be put back together again.

I was her demon.

 

EVE

I was wasting every second of every day trying to make time move faster.

I was ready to throw away this life as the Princess of Denmark and go back home where Bowen would be waiting for me. There was no stopping me.

I had been promised to Bowen since our births.

I was determined to save myself for him and only him—my lifeline.

I may be bruised and broken but that only dirtied up my angel wings.

Nothing he couldn’t handle.

I would always be his angel.

EVE

Age 13

No one ever talks to you when change is about to erupt all over your life. They talk at you, and that’s exactly what happened a week before school ended.

The change I was forced into also forced me to adapt in order to survive, so that’s exactly what I did.

Bowey was my best friend even though the other kids didn’t understand him. They made fun of him for being too skinny, too pale, or even too weird, but Bowey was the one person I looked forward to every day.

Duke was the one guy at school who single handedly led the charge against Bowey, making one joke and turning
