I've survived more than I ever want to admit.
Surviving meant not making friends, never falling in love, and... doing things to help my parents in a world of seduction, power, money and lies. I had rules-strict rules that I had to follow or face the consequences.
Now... I'm free, thanks to my brother. And I don't know what to do with that freedom.
When I meet Cash, I'm as cold as anyone could be. Yet, he doesn't walk away the way he should. He wants things from me that I'm not sure I have to give, yet won't pressure me into it.
Instead, he invites me into his family, a concept so foreign to me that I'm sure I'll screw it up. Yet they welcome me with more compassion than I knew was out there.
My past life makes it almost impossible to be with him. Yet my heart won't let me push him away.
I can do this. I can figure this out. He's worth it.
Hopefully, I am too.
