When
you meet that one person in the world meant for you... you should hold onto
them.
Olivia Bannon walked away.
Twice.
When 17-year-old Livy meets Ethan, she
can’t deny their inexplicable connection. Lost in his dark, intense eyes and
smile-to-die-for, Livy never thought she would feel like this. It almost makes her want to break her
childhood vow, but Livy knows happily ever after is just an illusion, and
despite her heart wanting Ethan, her head is telling her to stick with the
plan. The one that doesn’t include falling in love. Period.
Eight years later, Livy finds herself back
in her hometown. After the way she left things, the last time they were
together, Livy is anxious about seeing Ethan again. It shouldn’t come as shock
to discover he has finally moved on—but it hurts. A lot. Accepting that she
will never get the chance to put things right isn’t easy, but it’s not until life
comes crashing down around her that Livy realizes what she could’ve had. Left broken, alone, and depressed, only one
person can pull her out—the guy she thought she'd pushed away one too many
times.
Livy has finally realized that you can’t
fight fate… Some things are just meant to be. Is this finally her time to get
it right, or has Livy missed her last chance with Ethan?
“Liv,
what’s going on? Is she okay? Keefer told me what went down.”
I
moved away from the door and met Ethan halfway. “No, she isn’t okay.” It came
out bitter.
“Can
I do anything? I could come-”
I
shook my head. “We’re fine, thanks.” Without realizing I stepped back and
Ethan’s face paled.
“And
us?”
My
eyes dropped to the floor.
“Liv,
look at me. What. About. Us?”
I
forced myself to look at him. My head and heart were at war. My heart wanted
him to wrap me in his arms and tell me everything was going to be okay. That
Amber would heal. That Sharn would meet her Prince Charming. That we really did
have something. But my head knew better. My head would always know better.
“There
is no us. I’m sorry, Ethan. Goodbye.” I turned from him and fled back to the
limo.
“You’re
running from me, Liv. Don’t use this as an excuse to run,” he called out.
Once
in the safety of the limo, I slammed the door behind me, ignoring Sharn’s
questioning glare.
“How
is she?”
“A mess. This will leave scars.” Sharn
answered.
I
leaned my head onto the backrest and pressed a finger to my lips, trying to
remember what kissing Ethan felt like. Was it even real? It didn’t feel real.
Not now. It felt like a dream—the really good kind, until you wake up and
realize it was just that.
A
dream.
Because
in the harsh light of day, life wasn’t like that. It was hard—full of hurt and
people who let you down.
No,
life wasn't like a dream at all.
