Tragedy and loss have left Heloyse adrift, trapped in a void where pain is her only companion. Seeking an escape, she throws herself into the unknown-not to find herself, but to forget, even if only for a moment.

Her journey leads her to vast, lonely lands, where she discovers the warmth of belonging. But in the dark eyes of a rancher scarred by the past, she finds something more-a silent fire, a mirror of her own pain. He hides behind walls built by loss, refusing to feel. Cold. Distant. Untouchable.

Two broken hearts, two souls condemned to wander the shadows of their memories. But when desire defies solitude and love slips through the cracks, can redemption be found? Or will the past always demand its price?

"The Turning Point" is a story of invisible scars, of passions that burn like fire, and of love's devastating power-to heal, but also to destroy.

A down to earth cowboy with a past is thrown into the supernatural world, when he falls for a vampire who has demons of his own. Daryl's a bullfighter on the national circuit, stretching his pay check as far as it will go between himself and his brother's farm back in Texas. He also has the misfortune of being incredibly unlucky in love and stumbles into the wrong bar trying to forget a night he can only half remember. The bartender tells him to not go looking for trouble, but amongst the dark shadows and beautiful faces, it finds him in the form of Ryker. Ryker isn't known for being a nice guy. He's got a line that most people would believe is too malleable, but he is one of the good guys. Always shooting off his mouth at the wrong time or getting himself into fights he should avoid (but can handle) he sees the cowboy and goes in search of a fight. But neither man is prepared for the battle of wills and emotions that ensue from their broken attempts at understanding whatever it is that draws them together time and again. The more Daryl is drawn into Ryker's dark world, the more obvious it is that the Cowboy's half forgotten past may be more related to the shadow games and machinations of the very agency that has been trying to kill Ryker and the rest of the supernatural world for decades now. Mature themes. Violence, Swears. (Based in the universe of @Whiskeyjanedoe 's Breaking series. This is a little more than a love story) cover by @whiskeyjanedoe

**PREQUEL TO "COWBOY UP (COWBOY GANGSTER SHORT STORY)"** Heff Wilder's world is shattered when he receives word that his sister and brother-in-law, Mandy and Frank Zayne, have died in a car accident. Since the death of their parents when Heff was ten, Heff and Mandy were each other's rocks. Now, at just twenty-one, Heff suddenly feels lost and alone. Things get worse when he learns of a special clause inserted into Mandy and Frank's will concerning their horse ranch: Heff must live on the property and run the ranch with Frank's younger brother, Garland-or the ranch will be turned over to the state to be auctioned off. Five years ago, Heff fled the ranch to get away from Garland Zayne. How could he go back now and live with the one man who had hurt him most? Garland Zayne is shocked-and infuriated-by the unexpected clause in his brother's will. Garland had busted his back right alongside Frank to build the ranch up from nothing-the ranch should have rightfully gone to him. Focusing on his anger and confusion over the ranch distracted him from the unbearable loss of his big brother and the woman who had loved him like a sister. An avoidable loss that he caused-at least, that's what he believes. And now, amidst his grief, guilt, and anguish, he is forced to confront a troubling, painful past as well-in Heff Wilder. Facing the young man after five years stirs up memories both good and bad, but mostly bad as he can't forget how he wronged the boy-then turned on him, causing Heff to flee his presence and never return to the ranch. Until now. Now, Heff and Garland must learn to work together or lose the ranch. But before that can happen, they must confront the past... and that one night that ruined everything.

▍ AN ORIGINAL ╱ western romance And if longing had a face, it would wear my features like a mask. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I watched the fireflies dance, Their glow fading softly in the dark, They slipped from my hands, gentle as they came And like a whisper on the wind, The night went quiet again. When we were young, we were taught the distinction between A hero and a villain Good and evil A savior and a lost cause We were taught this But what if the only difference is the one whos telling the story UNDER HEAVY EDITING LIKE STORY LINE WISE So if you come back one day and it's completely changed I apologize! I had two ways I wanted this to go and wrote out one entire book before realizing a different way would be better
