She’s my only light, my only weakness.

It was too good to be true. Men who cause pain like I’ve caused don’t get to be happy. We don’t get to have it all.

Ava’s brothers, my best friends, were right to want me out of her life, but I couldn’t let go. We were just starting to settle into our own version of normal when the world turned upside down, and my worst nightmare came true.

I lost everything.

I lost her.

Now, I’m on a mission, ready to move heaven and earth to get her back. While I fear we’ll both be broken beyond repair when all is said and done, I’ll take that risk.

I failed to protect her once; I will not fail her again.

Even if it costs me everything.

Even if it costs me my life.
