*Unedited* A story based on songs. Luna, Harper, and Brent have been inseparable since they were kids. That is until Jesse swooped in and broke the trio apart by sweeping Luna off of her feet and taking her from her hometown. Luna and Brent fell for one another early on, but neither ever confessed, fearful of the other not reciprocating the feelings and fear of ruining the friendship. Jesse sees this and pulls her away from her old life. What Jesse doesn't realize is, nothing can break the bond of a Triad and nothing will stand in the way of destiny. What's meant to be will happen regardless of who fights it. **I do not own the image on my cover. It is an image from the 2011 movie Footloose. I just tweaked it because it fit my story perfectly.**
