I felt detached from the book. It started abruptly and just continued like we knew beforehand what was happening. Once the story unraveled things were told that made sense. I just didnt like how the story began. Eliza(Krinos) is the daughter a drug lord and is about to take over the family busin...
I want him to remember, remember me. The things we’ve been through, the life-shattering moments that have happened between us. He needs to remember. I can’t remember it all by myself, someone else needs this burden that I carry. He’s in the same position he was in the first time I walked into his...
Her head comes up slowly, her eyes mixed with anger, hurt, and frustration. She looks down to my hands and back up to me again. “You sold me to those men?” She remembers now, remember them. Her head shakes and before she gets a chance to speak, she jumps up. Fear written on her face. “What’s wron...
I’m not quite sure how to understand him, or even read him. He seems cold, uncaring, and his actions dictate that. Why did he help me? Why did he feel the need to help me? He doesn’t seem like the caring type. He leans on the bench, dressed in his black suit, sipping his coffee. He doesn’t speak ...
I feel his side of the bed and realize he never came back. I sit up and turn on the lamp and notice him sitting at the end of the bed watching me. “You know my heart and soul only bleeds for you?” I nod my head and keep my eyes trained on him. “I saw you kiss Hunter in the pool.

Everything hurts. I try to sit, but I can’t move. My legs and hands are not cooperating, so I try again—nothing. The sun’s coming in. it’s hot, making me sweat. I look around, and that’s when I notice my hands tied back and my legs tied down. I kick, scream, and try to break free, but I’m not str...

I didn’t want to let her go, I wanted to keep her here, locked away just for me. Someone so wild like her, though, can’t be contained. I saw it the minute I was bandaging her. The look of loss, hurt written all over her face. I’ve never seen a look so sad in the two years that I’ve known her, and...
About twenty men are walking in and out, some showing their weapons as a badge of honor. Five of the men are huddled around a car smoking—probably weed—and laughing. It looks like possibly fifteen are actually on duty doing their job. We’re far enough away and parked in a parking area as we watch...
I hear my phone ringing and look for it, finding it on the end of the bed. I notice that I have four missed calls from work. I listen to the voice mails and hear my boss freaking out, asking me if I can cut my week short and come back as soon as possible. She has to interview a big celebrity and ...
