In Shattered Echoes, emotions lie buried beneath the surface, hidden behind a carefully constructed facade. Vegas, molded by a cold and emotionally distant upbringing, has learned to suppress his feelings, building an impenetrable mask of strength and control. Yet, when his past and present collide, the mask becomes a prison, trapping him in a world of unspoken pain and unresolved trauma. The story begins with a glimpse into Vegas's troubled past, filled with harsh lessons on the dangers of vulnerability. As an adult, his life takes a turn when he meets Pete, a beacon of warmth and openness at a mutual friend's gathering. Pete's genuine nature and unyielding kindness pierce through Vegas's defenses, igniting a connection that both excites and terrifies him. Despite his growing feelings for Pete, Vegas finds himself retreating, battling the internal struggle between his need for closeness and his fear of intimacy. His attempts to push Pete away only deepen the divide, leading to intense arguments and strained silence. Each interaction reveals cracks in Vegas's carefully constructed armor, exposing the shadows of his past that haunt him. As the emotional distance between them widens, Pete's frustration mounts. He grapples with the suffocating weight of their relationship, feeling helpless as Vegas becomes increasingly unpredictable and possessive. The love that once seemed like a refuge now feels like a burden, as Pete struggles to reach the man he adores. Shattered Echoes is a poignant exploration of love, pain, and the struggle to break free from the chains of the past. It delves into the complexities of a relationship fraught with hidden scars and unspoken fears, capturing the essence of a love that must navigate through the storm of emotional turmoil to find healing and hope.

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.

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.
