Bethany Benneht had it pretty good. She lived a normal life of homeschooling and spent her days chatting with flowers and working on the farm...Until one day, all of that changed. With a new loss in her life and new feelings surfacing, all the while, stressing to keep her secret hidden, she was ready to give in.

He knew that I would always need him. He knew that I would and could always rely on him as a friend, an ally, and a beholder of all but my darkest secret."
