To never talk to him again because memories from the past will only make her suffer more. It will just haunt her. She was very sure of that. "This is Harry, my boyfriend," she lied when her plan to escape from her past did not work at first. She was aware that it would just complicate things, but she was too desperate.

How can she evade having feelings for the second time around when he could make her heart skip a beat every single time his eyes darted at her? How can she not notice the heat flowing through her veins because of his delicate yet dangerous touches and aggressive kisses that slowly melted the walls she built for herself?
