*on hold* Until Callan moved in next door, Presley was one hundred percent, completely fine with how her life was turning out.

She never regretted dropping out of college or wasting her days working in a diner for minimum wage. Boredom never plagued her, and she certainly never dwelled on things that happened in her past... 

Callan was happy to be single for the first time in seven years. He wasn't heartbroken in the slightness. Did he use work as a distraction from his messy life? Absolutely not.  And he had zero time or interest in his pretty neighbour. Besides, she was kind of annoying when she wasn't witty and adorable and sweet. 

Isn't it funny, the lies we tell ourselves to get through the day?

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

Dys • ar • thri • a difficult or unclear articulation speech that is otherwise linguistically normal - Doubt it? How do you know this blossoming friendship won't turn into something more?
