The secret’s
out...
Fate has never
been kind to Mia Lee, but her misfortune has driven her to seek redemption from
a past filled with regret.
Mia’s future

mother who abandoned Mia when she was only a child.
Now that Mia

desperately seeks.
But those
answers come with a price…
Mia’s
blossoming relationship with Quinn Berkeley is the sole reason she carries on.
But Quinn has a secret of his own. Will his secret destroy the one stable
foundation in Mia’s life? And more importantly, what will Quinn’s secret do to
him once he confesses the sins of his past?
Life
for Mia and Quinn is about to explode in a way she never thought possible…
Excerpt
Turning slowly to face him, I can see that his eyes are still
closed, but his mouth is tipped up into a smile which radiates freedom. I’ve
never seen him look so carefree. He looks as if his sins of the past are
washing away with the punishing rain.
I know it’s not that simple, but through pain and loss, we have
bonded together and gained strength. And that strength suddenly animates me to
tell Quinn how I feel.
“Quinn!” I scream to be heard over the harsh rain.
My eyes are mere slits, as the rain is so heavy, but the moment
Quinn opens his magnetic eyes, I see that he has changed. Something inside of
Quinn has shifted, and it’s beautiful.
“Quinn, I—” I repeat, my teeth chattering from the cold, but
also from what I’m about to confess.
“You what, Red?” he questions, running a hand through his wet
hair.
Another thunderbolt sizzles through the sky, and I yelp.
Charging into his arms, I slap my hands over his ears because I’m terrified. I
want to him tell him how I feel, but I’m afraid. Droplets of rain cascade down
his tender face, but he doesn’t stir to brush them away, and I know I have his
undivided attention as his gaze never wavers from my face.
This is not the way I wanted to do this, but I know that for
now, this will have to do.
“Quinn…I…I love you,” I whisper, my hands still sitting firmly
over his ears.
Once I say those three little words, the tightening in my chest
lessens, and a small smile tugs at my lips because I’ve never felt so boundless
with a decision. And nothing has ever felt so right before.
