"I love you with ever fiber of what makes me human." 
____________________________________________

Rory Patterson has been heartbroken by one tragedy after another, so trust isn't something that comes easy for her. Deciding to give up the possibility of ever finding happiness, she is hyper-focused on her career, because that's the only thing in her life that she can control. She believes that love is toxic and is only a prequel to pain and misery, so she avoids it at all costs.

When a chance meeting at work brings her face-to-face with a man that is equally as broken as she is,  she begins to second guess every piece of what she believes in. His proximity makes her feel something more than pain for the first time and it's intoxicating. 

It's true that love finds a person when they least expect it to and sometimes, the force of it is so strong and intense that running away from it is an impossible feat. Finding herself unable to resist the temptation, Rory seems to have found solace in this man she is drawn to without reason. Together, they continue to face the fact that they've both been broken and have the scars to prove it. 

Can they fix each other and love each other past their pain or will they be each others final breaking point?

"I've had enough of your games," He growled, sending an involuntary shiver up my spine. "For the last time, who... the fuck... are you?" The demand had his voice dropping a pitch lower with each word and it suddenly got harder to breathe. A ripple of anxiety began a slow crawl up my spine, and I moistened my lips. "I- I'm Willow, Julie's girlfriend?" Why was I nervous all of a sudden? "Again with this shit, I don't care who the fuck your little girlfriend is. What do you want?" ~•~•~•~ Following her father's passing, Willow Macomber and her family were plunged into the harsh realities of poverty, where they struggled to make ends meet while burdened with debt. Saddled with a neglectful mother consumed by addiction and betrayed by a world that preyed on the vulnerable, Willow's once fragile heart hardened over time, leading her to develop a deep mistrust of men and seek solace with a woman who offered the love and security she longed for. Unbeknownst to Willow, Julie's deception poses a grave threat, entangling her in a complex web of deceit. Enter Dorian Wilhelm-White: ruthless, self-absorbed, volatile, and strikingly handsome, Dorian embodies everything Willow despises. Yet from their very first encounter, she was his, whether she liked it or not; and against his better judgment, Dorian is drawn to her fierce defiance with a passion. Sparks fly despite their stark differences, and attraction, unlike anything before simmers beneath the surface of their anger and suspicion. However, Dorian harbors his own darkness, and Willow soon comes to realize that giving in to him may come at a steep price... But is it one she's ready to pay?

"Now listen carefully....", he dragged me as he pushed me against a wall hurting my back still holding my arm tightly. "I'm warning you for the last time.", He hissed closing the distance between the two of us to zero.
