Apollo never had anything he cared for. All he thought about in his life, was how to end it. Until her. There was nothing that compared to the light that radiated off of her as she bounced into his life. He would do anything to keep it with him. But in the dangerous world that they lived in, she would become his weakness and that wasn't something he could risk, or was it? He never claimed he was a good man. ...

Celeste's childhood wasn't something she loved talking about. It was filled with nothing but painful memories. Whether they were the ones from when her father, along with her brothers, left, or the ones from her mother's death and her stepfather's abuse. Hell was the word she used to describe her past. And she was sure that it'd be her future too. That was until her stepfather got a new job and moved out along with her and her stepbrother, Lorenzo. Life decided to take a complete different turn and forced Celeste to meet the people who hurt her the most. Her past caught up with her present and she started to discover the bitter truths to the lies her life was built on.
