Carry My Heart - Book 3 by Cathy_Zeewriter

Cassy and Blake have fought too hard to rebuild the fragile trust between them, mending the pieces of a love that once seemed irreparably broken. Just as they finally begin to breathe again, a devastating secret emerges-one so earth-shattering that it shatters Cassy's world and threatens to consume her whole. The betrayal cuts deeper than she ever imagined, inflicted by those she trusted most. The truth, with its sharp edges, sends her spiraling into a darkness she's never known before, pulling her further from everything-including Blake. And as the weight of her pain grows heavier, the love they rebuilt begins to crack under the strain. But Blake refuses to lose her. He sees the light in her even when she can't, fighting to pull her from the shadows before they swallow her completely. Yet, no matter how hard he tries, the walls around her heart keep rising, and for the first time, he wonders if love alone will be enough to save them. In Beneath Shattered Promises, love is tested beyond its limits in a raw, emotional journey of betrayal, grief, and resilience. As Cassy drowns in pain and Blake fights to bring her back, one question remains-can love survive when the past refuses to let go? Or is this the breaking point for two hearts that once felt unbreakable?

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.
