He's a Cheater ✔️
Their love story was the definition of perfect. At least, in Mary's eyes. Jake was a sweet and caring person, who understood and respected her. And she loved him. Jake loved Mary too. Except he didn't think their love story was perfect. He knew it wasn't. Because he's a cheater. Take a journey through the cheater's eyes to see why anyone would think of doing the unforgivable. (A/N): The second draft of this book is complete, and in my opinion much better than the first. It is on the same story, and the chapter title tells you that it's the second draft (I've left the first draft up too). :)Complete
