RUIN ME

She knew he was bad for her.

She knew better.

But somehow, she still wanted him.

Vivienne Fuentebella spent years convincing herself that she was over Adrian Montoya.

Years of building a life without him.
Years of pretending that the memories didn't matter.
Years of making sure she would never, ever let him ruin her again.

Until he came back.

And just like that, every wall she carefully built around herself started falling apart.

Adrian was still the same.

Still arrogant.
Still reckless.
Still annoyingly charming.

And still the only man who could make her heart beat faster with just one look.

They were supposed to stay away from each other.

No second chances.
No old feelings.
No what ifs.

But then there were the stolen glances.

The late-night conversations.

The arguments that always ended with them standing a little too close.

The touches that lasted a second longer than they should.

And the undeniable truth that no matter how hard Vivienne tried to hate him-

she never really stopped wanting him.

Maybe some people are meant to be loved.

Maybe some people are meant to be survived.

And Adrian Montoya?

He was always both.
