Shattered (Reflections #2)

Sean

I want all of her; the consequences be damned. I don’t care about the baggage, the fear, the hurt.

I’m determined to prove that I’m different. That this all-consuming energy between us is a once in a lifetime kind of love that would burn forever if we let it.

I’d give her the life that she deserves.

But she keeps digging into a dark secret that’s bigger than me, bigger than us.

I can’t protect her from the truth.

No one can.

Raquel

I don't believe in 'happily ever after', my upbringing didn’t allow me to be that naïve.

Not until him.

For the first time in my life, maybe I deserve forever.

But before I allow myself to fall into fantasy, I need answers so I can let go of my past.

They say the truth sets you free…

This truth shattered me.
