Where do you hide when there's nowhere left to run?

My life was an illusion built on fear, until one day, fate intervened. 

I tried to run. 

I tried to hide.

I tried to disappear.

At a small bed and breakfast in the middle of nowhere, I found myself, and then, he found me... Gus Gallagher, my aunt's next-door neighbor. 

He was persistent. He was everything I feared and everything I wanted. He was determined to win me over, but I was determined to drive him away. The possibility of more could never become a reality, not with him. 

Soon though, I learned he was everything I needed. 

The life I live now is an illusion based on deception. This time though, the lies I tell are my own. I knew eventually I'd get caught in my own web of deceit, but this wasn't my choice. 

In the shadows the past is lurking; patiently waiting and set on revenge. 

My life was unbearable until the day I decided to disappear. 

My name is Laney Sloane and this is my story.

BROKEN VOWS (Broken Redemption Book 1) by ArianaClarkAuthor
32 parts Complete Mature
Choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved... including her. It's why I left the small town where I grew up and vowed never to return. I'm no longer the golden boy with a bright future they all remember. Instead, I carry the scars of a tortured past. A broken man deemed unfit, even by the Navy SEALs he'd dedicated the past decade to serve. What was supposed to be a quick trip to sell my parent's property turned into this twisted journey that forced me to confront my demons. And then there she was. My first love, and deepest regret. The woman who still owns every piece of my blackened heart. When she asked for my time, I couldn't refuse. Now I can't walk away. Not after hearing of the danger her husband, a missing FBI agent, has brought to her doorstep. After everything, I owe her my help. It's why I offer to protect her and her two little girls from the danger circling them. It's a vow I never should have made, given the trail of bodies I've left in my wake. Like the harbinger of death, I'm the last man either of us should trust.

A town with no history. A girl with no name. An end with no beginning. My oldest memory of this place was blurry. It faded in and out of my dreams and subconscious. The details edges had been rubbed smooth long ago, but the feeling of complete and absolute terror had remained as distinguishable as the day it happened. fifteen or so years back... That fear has always kept me grounded to the forest that isolated me from the rest of the world. It kept me safe from whatever I had to run away from. Tricking me into thinking what was best for my survival, was to stay hidden. But when dangers from the outside seep into the safe haven I had created, all sense of security shatters. Suddenly the safety net is gone, and other people exist again... Some that had definitely thought I was dead. (as of 9/30/24 - Hello (: this is a disclaimer!
