LOGINHey, guys! Just a tiny, sad little update, that’s all I could manage. But hey… something is better than nothing, right? I love you all so much, seriously. Thank you for being the absolute rockstars that you are and for understanding my chaotic, sleep-deprived self. And honestly… whenever one of you comments that I’ve ruined other books for you, I feel higher than any drug could ever get me. You guys are the sweetest, most dangerously awesome people I’ve ever met. X O X O 💋

Raphael's thumb brushed my cheek, “You were grieving—” I cut him off immediately before he tried to rationalize my bad decisions, “I left Gio, too.” That one hurt differently. “My little brother had to stay there with him. With Dad. I didn't stop to think about what that would do to him. I was so
“You had to hold my hand through most of our relationship. It wasn't fair to you.” My laughter disappeared. “If you hadn't pushed me away when you did, I might never have understood how much I loved you. You forced me to face things I would've avoided forever.” His thumb moved slowly over the bac

Waiting. For heartbreak. For regret. For grief. Nothing came. Only relief. And for the first time since his name had appeared on my screen... I smiled. ──━⊰ 𓆙 ⊱━── The office floor hummed around me. Monitors glowed from every direction. Lines of code scrolled endlessly across screens. Pho
"You're even hotter than they said." "Please!" I sobbed, my face half-buried in the leaves, "Please, let me go! I didn't know... I didn't agree to this!" I tried to crawl forward, my fingers clawing at the mud, but he just laughed. It was a dark, mean sound. He grabbed the back of my black top and
