HALLIE

I'm alone in the sea of my grief until I meet Zeke, a tornado of complications who leaves destruction in his wake. I fall hard and fast, despite all the warning signs.

Our love story is far from a fairy-tale. But if it hurts, then it's real.

There's a monster hiding beneath his tattooed skin, an addiction that will tear us apart. I can't lose him, but I'm powerless to fix wounds that simply run too deep.

How do you save someone who doesn't want to be saved?

ZEKE

I've been a shadow of my former self ever since the crash, consumed by guilt.

A chance encounter in bereavement therapy changes everything.

Hallie invades my life with her soft smiles and fiery passion. She becomes my whole world and, for the first time in so long, I have a reason to live.

My demons aren't so easily beaten. I should walk away, yet I can't bring myself to leave the woman who took my broken pieces and brought me back to life, one kiss at a time.

I'll fight this addiction to my very last breath for her, but the road to recovery is never simple. If I'm not careful, I might just drag her to hell with me.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

Forever Ago is a dark, standalone M/F romance. Full trigger warning available inside the book. This special edition features the original story, plus never-before-seen bonus content and an extended epilogue.
