The thought of that brings a certain kind of panic inside me. I didn’t want to think of that. I didn’t want to let go of my dream of being with Rowan. I stay quiet as I fight her words in my head. “Emma?” she calls. I know her; she wants me to agree. She wants me to tell her that I’ll think about
Rowan. It’s been two days since the truth came out, and I still can’t get over the kiss. When I dipped my head to kiss Ava, I expected her to push me away. Worse, to slap me. I can’t deny that I was surprised when she let me kiss her. That surprise soon turned into happiness and joy. I can’t fuck
All the hope I had shrivels up and dies. Hell. Will I ever get a chance to make things right? Is it even possible to win her back? “I doubt that's the only thing. We both know Ava. If she didn’t want it, she wouldn’t have let you. Hormones be damned,” he tries to encourage me, but I’m not really fe

“Don’t worry, Ava. We’ll catch this bastard. There is no way I’ll allow him or her to hurt you or my niece,” he assures me, his voice taking a soft note. “Thanks” We talk a little bit longer before we hang up. I don’t get up from my spot on the couch. There were a million things to do in the hous
I’ve been obsessing for the last few days over the note. I just wanted to nail whoever this person is so that I could move on peacefully with my life. I hated that I was now jumpy and scared all the damn time. Noah has even noticed that I haven’t been myself. Every time he asks, I just tell him tha
