Description:
“From the moment I locked eyes with hers, we've had this undeniable connection that was and will always be wicked. A love that would literally kill me if it didn't survive, but lately, could kill me if it did.” ~Drake Evans.
For Drake and Presley, life has handed them more challenges than any one person should ever face in a lifetime. Together, they've survived Presley’s captivity from her deranged uncle, but now they must learn how to live with the events that surrounded her time spent with him, while keeping the details of her rescue a secret.
For Presley Quinn, living the last two years has been practically unbearable, constantly drowning in nightmares put there by a man responsible for the violent images continually playing in her mind. She keeps moving forward, but is barely clinging onto the edge when she’s faced with another obstacle from her past that is so unavoidable, so tragic, it threatens to break her apart—herself.
Drake will do anything to protect Presley from ever feeling pain again. His love is irrefutable. He walks side by side with her, vowing he will never let anyone harm her again. However, when an unexpected event turns Presley against everyone she’s ever loved, Drake is faced with trying to save the only woman he’s ever loved or severing the only lifeline she’s ever had—himself.
EXCERPTS:
The countdown is
finally over and in a few short days I will have the love of my life standing
in front of me. I’m terrified to look into his eyes. The last time I saw them
they were bloodshot and broken. Broken because of me. Will he ever be able to
mend all of his broken pieces? Will he need to be without me in order for his
broken pieces to heal? I’m scared to find out, but I desperately need to know.
~Presley Quinn, Tragic Love
"She
is a part of me—every vital thing I need to live—and with every second she
keeps her lips pressed to mine, I can feel life flood through me. I've been
saying Presley is the very reason I breathe and this kiss solidifies how I feel
because, without her, I would be dead. It wasn't until this very moment that I
knew just how much I needed her to survive." ~Drake Evans, Tragic Love~
"I am certain, without any doubt, she was meant to be in my life. We belong to each other. I spent too much of my time consumed with what everyone else thinks of my feelings for Darcie, but the truth is, it was always supposed to be this way." ~Reggie Evans
