**Special Release Sale Price 99 Cents**There's only one person I want to see when I finally return home. But I know he won't be waiting for me. It's the reason I feel safe enough to come back. I'm so wrong. Ash isn't the same quiet boy from next door. He's tall, dark, and demanding answers. He wants me, but he doesn't trust me. Who can blame him? When his own family tried to break him down, he still sheltered me in this town full of liars. And I repaid him by leaving him behind without a word. Because I'll do anything to protect him. The scars on my wrist prove it. Contains strong language, explicit sexual situations, and mature themes. Thisnovel is not intended for readers under the age of 18. First in a 2-part series.
