It Ends With Her

She thinks she can resist him. He knows she can’t. Henry Moore is a man who always gets what he wants but Andrea Collins is the one woman daring enough to defy him. Every glance, every word, every touch ignites a war between control and desire… and neither of them will surrender. Andrea’s heart is still broken from a betrayal that shattered her on her twenty-fourth birthday with her first love. She’s determined to rebuild her life on her own terms—no distractions, no complications, no men. But Henry is relentless. The more she pushes him away, the more he draws her in. And as their chemistry becomes impossible to ignore, Andrea faces the ultimate choice: keep running from love, or risk everything for the one man who refuses to let her go.

For twenty-three years, Elena Hart and Adrian Cole have been inseparable. They grew up together, shared a childhood promise to marry one day and became so close that everyone believed they were destined to be together. Everyone except Adrian. For two years, Elena has lived like Adrian's lover. They share a bed, go on dates and say I love you, but whenever she asks what they truly are, Adrian gives her the same answer. They are only best friends. Then Isabelle Laurent, the college crush Adrian had never truly gotten over, returns. In a matter of days, Adrian begins pursuing the woman he once believed he could never have. He tells Elena that their two years together meant nothing and warns her not to mistake their relationship for love. So Elena leaves. A thousand miles away, she starts over and pours herself into her dream of opening a dance studio. For the first time, she begins building a life that has nothing to do with Adrian. Adrian is certain she will return, just as she always has. But this time, Elena doesn't. As the months pass, Adrian slowly realizes that the woman he thought he could never love is the only person he can no longer live without. By the time he finally goes after her, Elena is no longer waiting. Worse, there is another man standing beside her and Elena is hiding a secret Adrian never knew existed. When the truth finally comes out, Adrian may discover that the promise he once treated like a childish joke is the one promise he will never get the chance to keep.

We had been in love for years, and everyone believed that Henley was utterly devoted to me. Even I thought so—until the day I saw him in bed with a younger woman. I lost all will to live and chose the most peaceful way to end it all. When Henley found out I had donated my body, he completely lost his mind.

For ten years, I've served as the lover supporting Catherine Sanders from the shadows. With my help, she's able to save her company from the brink of bankruptcy and eventually gets it listed. On the day before we're about to ring the bell, just as I'm about to propose to Catherine, she introduces her childhood sweetheart, Benedict Shaw. Apparently, he is to take over my position in her life. She thanks me for my contributions throughout the decade, but her company is about to embark on a new journey. That means I'm no longer suitable to stay by her side. As I watch the woman I spent the last ten years loving and sacrificing everything for using a bank card to dismiss me, I feel as though my heart has plunged into the icy abyss. "I spent ten years devoting everything I have to you. In the end, it's nothing but a huge mistake." But Catherine remains blind to the truth. Once I quit my job, her company will cease to exist, just like my love for her.

There was a girl that was ready to face her death without having any regrets by shutting everyone down. She had not experienced falling in love with a person and taking risks. However, when she decided to go to college, she met a guy. And without any notice, her life was slowly changing. Is she finally willing to take the risk even if she knew their end game?

I broke up with my boyfriend the year he was at his poorest. A year later, he was famous, and he married a prettier, livelier girl than me. On a late-night show, a host asked him whether a grand slam of awards this early in his career left any regrets. He pulled Mia closer. "I want to know how she's been. Since she left me." The host paused. "She's been... not well at all." Adrian finally smiled. "Then I can stop thinking about her." "But Ms. Whitman left behind a box of tapes before she died." Adrian's smile locked into place. On the tapes were every day and every night of my life, from the day I walked away from him to the day I stopped breathing.
