(SEQUEL TO EVERYTHING HURTS. MUST READ BOOK 1.)
Suddenly, Leo pressed his palm to the wall and leant over me before I could turn at the corner of the hall. I froze, having no other choice, but to turn to face him again as he blocked me. Granted, he didn't trap me, but a sudden race of anxiety filled me and I obediently turned. He raised an eyebrow as I did so.
I wanted to yell at him, I wanted to be the strong one here this time, but my voice came out small and shaky as I spoke, "J-Just stop, okay? I can't deal with you doing this to me again."
After escaping Alicia's abusive ex-lover's death trap, the trauma still sits in the band and her thoughts. And, though Leo had saved her life, the two have not spoken to one another after the heartbreaking secret he had kept from Alicia. Now, nearly a year after everything, they are forced to reunite due to the band's worry over Leo's severe PTSD. Old wounds are reopened when therapy demands they remember past events and new troubles arise when Leo's unusual symptoms are finally diagnosed.

Things Foretold #2
Book #2 of Things Trilogy Second chances. You'll do anything for it even if it means you fall apart, if only to spare yourself another regret gnawing at the hollow of your chest. But is it really worth the pain? In that graveyard of trust, you buried your heart beneath layers of bitterness and quiet despair, swearing no hand would ever touch its pulse again. They taught you the exquisite agony of being cherished, only to leave you hollow and convinced you are unworthy of devotion's gentle hands. What they took from was not merely time or peace-it was a life. But fate, ever merciless, delights in resurrecting old ghosts. The person who broke you once stands at your door begging to try again. And for a heartbeat, you ache to believe in miracles you no longer dare name aloud. Perhaps this time it won't end in ruin. But what is the worth of a love that must beg for resurrection? Is it worth reliving the pain you barely survived the first time? Or is this the one truth you can't outrun-that some things foretold are never meant to be rewritten, but to test whether you have finally learned that some ghosts are meant to stay buried-no matter how sweetly they knock at your door.Complete

The unreachable mountain
"You're unbearable!" He kicks her with utter contempt. "Please tell me where I'm wrong, causing you discomfort was not my intention," she said crying, causing him to hit her against the ground again. "Do you think you can live with good intentions? Didn't you have all the time you wanted to change and learn? You still dare to ask for more!"

She got up from her bed screaming "Eh? This looks like my room; Did I reincarnate myself in the past?" She ran to the bathroom just to see that her assumption was correct.
