She is loving, happy, a shell of a person she used to be. With a childhood full of secrets, and a broken past she is trying to move on from while she lives in college with her bestfriend. Yet she can feel the storm brewing and the only thing she can do is brace for the onslaught of painful memories- past and present- that come for her. Especially Cole Anders.
Cole Anders, a brooding hottie, a broken man, a man whose happiness was stolen from him, and snatched away at a young age is ready, ready to go back home now that he knows it's safe, to come back and take what was rightfully his from the beginning and begin his life anew, and get the happy ending he deserves. Yet what he can't prepare for is the storm his secrets create and he can only brace for the harshness of it in the eye of the storm.
P.S. I am currently editing the parts I have published. I know this may not be as good as others but please bear with me, I hope to get better as I go on.

It does have around 40 chapters so it might not seem like it. But trust me that it is.] ||Full Disclosure|| I started the book in the end of 8th grade so it needs MAJOR editing. It also does have Sexual Chapters, as well as people of the same sex being together, murder, brutally torture talk of rape and sexual harassment. So if you do not wish to read things like that then this unfortunately isn't the book for you. ||You Have Been Warned|| First book in the Heart series. •Do Not Copy This Book In Anyway•Complete
