Author: Lisa De Jong

Release Date: Sep 25, 2013

Genre: Contemporary Romance

One night changed my life forever.

Beau Bennett has been my best friend since I can remember. He was my first crush before everything came crashing down, and now he wants more, but it's more than I can give him. Things are different now. I wish I could tell him why, but I can't.

I haven’t told anyone.

I never knew how much I really needed him until the day he left for college, and I was completely alone.

Then one day, Asher Hunt rides into town with his dark, captivating eyes and cocky grin. He doesn't care who I used to be, he's simply breathing life into what’s left. People warn me to stay away from him, but he helps me forget the pain that has held me hostage for so long; something I thought was impossible before he walked into my life.

I’ve been hurt.

I’ve been saved.

And I’ve found hope.

I thought my story was written that night, but now I know it was only a new beginning. Until one secret turns my world upside down…

Again.

 “What’s wrong?  What did I do?” The ache I hear in his voice makes my heart fall a little further into my stomach.  This is my fault, not his.

            When I felt Beau’s body on top of mine, I could see the anger in Drew’s eyes and feel the way his fingers dug into my skin.  I just want the memories to go away.

            “Fuck.  Kate, please say something!” Beau says with a strained voice.

            I flinch, wrapping my arms around my stomach.  “Can you please just take me home?” 

I want to tell him.  I want to tell someone, but I can’t.

He stands in front of me with his hands folded behind his neck. I back away, making sure to put an arms-length distance between us.  “Jesus, will you please just tell me what’s going on?  I can’t keep watching you pull further and further away from me.”

            “Just take me home, Beau,” I whisper before walking in the direction of the truck.  When I hear him call my name, I stop and turn my neck to look back at him. 

            “I can’t keep doing this shit.  Why won’t you talk to me?  Give me one reason!” he yells, gripping his hair between his fingers.

            “You don’t want to hear it.  Trust me,” I cry, covering my mouth with my hand.  Just thinking about telling him everything makes the bile rise from my stomach.  No one wants to hear that good little Kate isn’t who they think she is.  She’s been damaged.

            “Try me,” he says, sounding tired and frustrated.  “Nothing you tell me will change the way I feel about you. Nothing.”
