We stood there. Tracing each other's scars. We wondered to ourselves the story behind them. But neither of us were willing to share. Why wasn't it simple? Why couldn't we just trust each other? Because we couldn't even trust ourselves.

We weren't connecting because we liked each other, we were connecting because we both needed a way out. We were connecting because we both needed a reassurance about love. I'm not sure what this means for us. Our future. All I know is I'll never forget this moment. Because in this moment I felt a spark of hope, and a bit of me open up, without even saying anything. And I know she felt it too.

Dylan Bates is training to take his father's billion dollar business for when he retires.  He has done nothing but business related things all his life and has given up on anything else since the accident.

Rebekah Brooks has been pushed around by her family and is basically taking care of her little sister. Just a few more months and she can fight for legal custody. 

When Rebekah does something completely insane and gets caught by Dylan she is given two choices. Work for him for six months to pay off the damage, or jail. With both of them coming from scarring pasts, they both have to learn to lean on each other for love, and hope.

Because in six months, everything changes.All Rights Reserved

Wake Up Call by VictoriaAshleyAuthor

A broken girl... Twenty years old and I'd finally had enough. I couldn't take anymore, so I packed up my things and disappeared, leaving behind my drunken, abusive father and the mother that stood by and watched as I slowly died. I knew I was going, but not where I'd stop. The last thing I expected once on my own, was to be spending my nights stripping at a club in Florida, barely getting by. I should have known running from a past wouldn't make it stop haunting me, because misery will always find me and tear me down until there's nothing left of me. It always has... Things can always change though, right? Like looking up at a handsome, tattooed stranger, and with one stare he has me questioning everything I've ever believed in. I wasn't expecting or prepared for someone to storm into my life. Not him. Jace Montgomery. The name I'll never forget. The need to save me lies in his eyes, but I don't need a savior. Trust- what he wants to teach me. That I'm something more than what I've grown up believing and that I'm worth loving. Those are the things he wants me to believe. How am I supposed to let him in and show me I'm something when I've spent my entire life being... nothing? He won't give up, and honestly, I'm hoping he never does... Because maybe... just maybe... I am worth saving after all.

But fate had other plans for the two lovers, a blind promise. Can they work through their differences, their mental health challenges, and the dangerous situations that come their way?
