Life for Callie had never been an easy one but it was something she had gotten used to. For this emotionally lonely girl, it entailed balancing school with work, taking care of her mentally ill dad and dealing with a pointless high school drama that she had been webbed in. But when her dad got arrested for something he didn't do, Callie took it upon herself to appeal to the person who put him there. What she didn't expect was to get tangled up with the quiet, emerald-eyed Larkin Hammell and opening up her fragile heart to a boy with more baggage than she ever had. Larkin Hammell had enough scars on his face and his heart, likewise, to last a lifetime. He had become a shadow of his former self and all he wanted was to be left alone to wallow in his pain and grief. Hiding away from the world and wearing the guilt of his past on his sleeves were all part of Larkin's plans. Then everything changed when fate swept her into his life unexpectedly. Is love ever enough to fix the fragments of a broken heart or is it all you need to pick up the remaining pieces before it gets completely shattered? *** 👑1st place - Monarchy Awards (Teen Fiction Category) 👑1st place - The Innovation Awards (Romance Category) 👑1st place - The Ulven Awards (Romance Category) 👑 Winner of "Best Fantasy" Category - Nigerian Readers Choice Awards 👑3rd place - The Noble Awards (Teen Fiction Category) Readers' Reviews - "Is this really chapter 1?
