No one should ever feel like they don't have choice or that they have to settle for less than they deserve. Alina Pierce did that. She met Blake Scott. He was stunning and charming and he took her breathe away. Alina dove head first into a relationship with him. She thought she was lucky, and so what if he yelled every once in a while. 

Nobody's perfect, right? She was convinced she could change him, help him see that she loved him, but she was wrong. Alina had to learn the hard way that you can't be in a healthy relationship with someone who abuses you or your relationship. So, she does the only thing she can think to do. She runs, from Blake, and from everything she believed was true. 

Now, she has to find her own way back. She thought she had to do it alone. She was never expecting a man named Kit Jennings to help her. Can Alina push through these heavy obstacles and find herself again? Not the person she was with Blake, but her true self? Will Kit be able to put aside his doubts and insecurities and finally stand up for himself? 

Alina and Kit have a lot of hard truths to work through and they're going to need each other to face it all.

"That's right," Blake said sounding bored. "Everyone is wondering if that's because you aren't over your ex-wife, Elizabeth Bell." When he said that I froze. The last thing I wanted from this interview was for him to bring up my past life. Although I changed my name to Rose Matthews, I still freeze every time someone mentions that name. I try so hard to forget my past before I was Rose but when you have so many people constantly bringing it up you can't escape it. Blake's answer brought me back to the present. "No! Honestly, I was glad to be out of that marriage. It was a burden, constantly having to be married to her. I don't have a girlfriend because I want to be able to enjoy the single life for a while. Since I was tied to someone for so long, I just want to have some freedom in my life." He said honestly. I felt France and Jay each grab my hand. I felt my heart break again. I didn't think that was possible. My heart is already broken into a million pieces and somehow he was able to break it even more... ---------------------- Can Elizabeth and Blake learn to love each other again? Or will their past catch up to them?
