But when graduation rolls around and Norah takes a mysterious scholarship and Theo is suddenly shipped off to the Army a few weeks later, Lukas is left to follow in his father's footsteps.
It's not until his brother is killed-in-action and Norah shows back up in Varner with a little boy a few years later, that he understands exactly why she left.
After all these years, Lukas can't help but still feel protective of Norah and now that he's the new Sheriff, he can finally protect her how he always dreamed he could.
Until he discovers the truth.
Can time heal his wounds when lies and deception is all that surrounds their past? And can Norah learn to forgive the people who hurt her most and move on with her life?
One little boy may be the answer to heal both their hearts.

Gabriel & Athena, Book One: Fate (A Wattpad Featured Story)
FORMERLY TITLED "FATUM" Chosen as a Wattpad Featured Story in May 2017 There's a reason high school senior Athena Thorpe spends every available moment reading books: fiction is always so much better than the real world. Even the unexpected scandal she suffered thanks to Jackson Montgomery was just a blip in her typically mundane existence in Sparrow, North Carolina. But no story could ever compare to the life-altering events that occur when Gabriel Valente moves into town. Being the son of a notorious crime lord and having grown up on the streets of Manhattan, Gabriel defies all the expectations the students of Sparrow High have for him, including Athena's. She never expected he would match her interest in the written word, or his unlikely grand gestures and definitely not the immediate but intense feelings which cause them to spiral into a secret relationship. A relationship that hinders on Gabriel's uncertain future, which could find him being the heir to the mob throne. Whether or not she wants to admit it, Athena knows the world Gabriel comes from is a dark and violent one. It's just really easy to pretend it doesn't exist within the bubble that is Sparrow. Yet, no matter how much we pretend, reality is never far away, with Gabriel and Athena learning a tragic lesson about choice and consequence a little too late. When you finally decide what you want most in life, the next question becomes: will fate agree?Complete
