The invitation arrives on a Tuesday.

Cream-colored cardstock. Gold embossing. The kind of paper that costs more than a meal. The kind that means this is important. The kind that makes your stomach drop. The kind that makes your hands sweat. The kind that makes your heart race. A team dinner. Ethan's teammates. Their wives. Their girlfriends. Everyone who matters in his world. Everyone who's been wondering about me. Everyone who's been waiting to meet the woman who broke and rebuilt their captai

  • Puck, Passion, and Broken Promises   THE TRUTH HURTS

    The afternoon sun streams through the window, but the room feels cold.Ethan is still holding me. His arms are still tight. His heart is still racing. His breath is shallow. His hands are shaking. His whole body is trembling. His soul is bleeding. His world is crumbling. His life is falling apart. His truth is pouring out."The truth hurts," he says."What truth? What are you talking about? What truth could possibly hurt more than everything we've already been through?""The truth about everything. About my father. About Vanessa. About the years we lost. About the accident. About the lies. About the betrayal. About the murder. About the man he really was. About the monster he hid from everyone."I pull back. Look at him. His eyes are dark. His face is pale. His jaw is tight. His hands are cold. His voice is breaking. His heart is exposed. His soul is naked. His mask is gone."Tell me. Tell me everything. Don't leave anything out. I need to know. I deserve to know. I've been in the dar

  • Puck, Passion, and Broken Promises   HE NEVER LOVED HER

    The morning after the revelation, Ethan is quiet.He sits at the kitchen table. His coffee is cold. He hasn't touched it. He hasn't moved. He's been staring at the same spot on the wall for an hour. His face is empty. His eyes are hollow. His soul is shattered. His heart is bleeding. His world is collapsing. His hope is fading. His spirit is crushed. His life is unraveling. His everything is falling apart. His mind is racing."Ethan?"He looks up. His eyes are hollow. His face is pale. His hands are still. His soul is broken. His heart is bleeding. His world is collapsing. His spirit is crushed. His life is falling apart. His everything is gone. His future is uncertain. His past is haunting him."I never loved her," he says."Who? Who are you talking about?""Vanessa. I never loved her. I thought I did. I thought I was moving on. I thought I was healing. I thought I was putting the pieces back together. I thought I was finally whole. I thought I was finally free. I thought I was final

  • Puck, Passion, and Broken Promises   FAKE ENGAGEMENT EXPOSED

    Vanessa finds me in the living room.Her face is pale. Her hands are shaking. She looks like she's seen a ghost. She looks like she's been carrying a weight she can no longer bear. She looks like she's finally ready to set it down. She looks like she's been waiting for this moment for years. She looks like she's been holding her breath and is finally ready to exhale. She looks like she's been waiting for forgiveness. She looks like she's been waiting for freedom."Ava, I found something. Something you need to see. Something I should have told you a long time ago. Something I've been hiding from. Something I've been running from. Something I've been afraid to face. Something I've been ashamed of. Something I've been carrying alone.""What? What is it? You look like you've seen a ghost. You're white as a sheet. You're shaking. You're scared. What happened? What did you find? What have you been hiding?""The engagement. It was fake. All of it. The whole thing was a lie. Every moment of i

  • Puck, Passion, and Broken Promises   VANESSA'S TOO CALM

    Vanessa is in the kitchen when I walk in.She's drinking coffee. Her face is calm. Too calm. The kind of calm that comes from holding onto something you're not ready to share. The kind of calm that comes from sitting on a secret that's too heavy to speak. The kind of calm that comes from knowing something everyone else doesn't. The kind of calm that comes from carrying a truth that could change everything. The kind of calm that comes from being on the edge of a revelation. The kind of calm that comes from having the power to expose the truth. The kind of calm that comes from being the one who holds the key."You're up early," I say."I couldn't sleep. Too much on my mind. Too many thoughts circling around. Too many questions without answers. Too many possibilities. Too many what-ifs. Too many scenarios playing out in my head. Too many outcomes to consider.""Neither could Ethan. He's been pacing all night. I could hear him through the walls. Back and forth, back and forth. He's wearin

  • Puck, Passion, and Broken Promises   ETHAN STARTS SEARCHING

    The morning after Dr. Harrison's confession, Ethan is already at work.His laptop is open. His phone is pressed to his ear. His face is focused. His eyes are tired but determined. He hasn't slept. He hasn't stopped. He hasn't taken a break. He's running on sheer will. Running on justice. Running on love. Running on hope. Running on rage. Running on grief. Running on a fire that won't go out. Running on a need that won't be silenced."Find everything you can on Dr. Harrison," he says. "Bank records. Phone records. Every connection he has. Every transaction he's made in the last five years. Every person he's spoken to. Every place he's gone. Every payment he's received. Every favor he's called in. Every secret he's kept. Every lie he's told. Every person he's betrayed. Every person he's protected. Every person he's sacrificed."He hangs up. Looks at me. His jaw is set. His eyes are fierce. His hands are steady. His resolve is unshakable. His determination is absolute. His soul is burnin

  • Puck, Passion, and Broken Promises   THE DOCTOR LIES

    Dr. Harrison is back in his office.Ethan and I sit across from him. The file is on the desk. The original. The real one. The one that exposes everything. The one that unravels years of lies. The one that brings the truth to light. The one that holds the answers we've been searching for. The one that will set us free. The one that will finally bring justice. The one that will end the silence. The one that will break the cycle. The one that will heal the wounds."Doctor, we found the original records," Ethan says.Dr. Harrison's face goes pale. His hands freeze. His breath stops. His eyes widen. His whole body tenses. His soul trembles. His world crumbles. His heart races. His mind spins. His hope fades. His fear rises."I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know what records you've found. I don't know what you think you have. I don't know what you think you know. I don't know what you want from me. I don't know what you expect me to say. I don't know what you're accusing me

  • Puck, Passion, and Broken Promises   HIS NAME ON MY SCREEN
