Promise: The Deception Trilogy, Book 3

Scarlett

When the man I’d stupidly fallen in love with threw me out of his life I’d thought the world had ended. However, I was proven wrong. The world kept spinning.
It was just that my world, as I’d known it, had ended.
Did he think about me? Did he regret me?
I thought about him all the time.
Did I regret him?
I don’t know.
All I do know is that I’m determined to wrap up my feelings and protect my heart until I’ve moved on. But moving on means leaving Boston behind and starting over somewhere new. That’s not going to be easy considering my sister’s latest choices have turned my life upside down once again. She’s in danger. For real this time. Now I am too. And that, apparently, is the one thing that can bring him charging back into my life. He wants to protect me. Is it guilt? I don’t want his guilt. I don’t want his protection. Being around him will only lead to hurt. I know that.
I have to resist temptation.

Griffin

Walking away from her was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I convinced myself it was what was best for her. Best for me. However just the slightest hint that she’s in danger gives me the excuse I need to bring her back to the club and into my life once more. I know I hurt her but I underestimated how much and how stubborn she is. She’s made protecting her a full-time job and winning her back near impossible.
But I know she cares. That’s enough. For now. What matters is keeping her safe.
I have to believe I can.
And I will.
Even if it means sacrificing every damn thing I’ve worked for in this life.
Even if it means losing her forever.
