BOOK TWO

Leave this place and run away with me.

Was I dreaming, or had he really said those words?

These days, it was almost impossible to tell the difference between the waking world and a dreamland. Ever since meeting Nicholas Colby my life had felt like something out of a fairytale.

Nick was perfect in every sense of the word. Handsome beyond compare, with deep, soulful eyes and thick brown hair that begged to be tousled and played with.

I want you, Violet, more than I’ve ever wanted anything.

“You want me now,” I had said, in a voice barely above a whisper. “But what happens when our time is up?”

It was a question that he wouldn’t answer. And there were other questions, too, darker ones…ones I was too afraid to ask. 

As much as I was loving every moment with him, I was deeply afraid of what would happen when our time together came to an end.

That’s the thing about dreams. No matter how good they are, eventually you have to wake up….
