Maybe it was the gentle look in his grey eyes that made her trust him. 
Maybe it was the soothing sound of his voice.
    
    Her anger made her run as far as her feet could take her and regret soon came when she found herself farther than she thought. She'd never get home before dark. She'd never get home before the mysterious creatures that were whispered through villages lurked in the deep forest during the day and came out only at night.
    But then came a handsome man in a black cloak with a promise.  
    Should she risk a trek alone in the night back home or take the deal with Hades: show him the way to Dover Village, a shunned village full of sin, in return for him to take her back home?

How far would you go to protect the ones you love? A successful architect with a promising career in London, Brian's world spins out of control when the man he always saw as a second father betrays him in the most unexpected way. Left without closure, a year has passed and Brian is now more determined than ever to undo the harm done to the ones he loves most, his family. Even if that means riding the thin line between justice, revenge, and obsession... Immersed in his resolve, finding love again was the last thing on his mind. Until fate steps in and a chance encounter changes everything. Meeting Olivia again so unexpectedly, at his best friend's wedding, stirs up memories he had long ago put away. She'd been his first love, his kindred spirit - and the woman who left him without saying so much as a goodbye. Which doesn't make him want her less. He knows it, the moment she locks her deep green eyes on his. Even knowing it might be too late to repair what's been once broken, Brian refuses to lose her again and sets out to find a way back to her heart. But it's been more than ten years since their story was left unfinished. Will they get one last chance to make things right? Or will Brian learn that sometimes justice comes at too high a price? *** NOTE TO READERS: A full-length, standalone contemporary romance, Where the Stars Fall was previously published on Wattpad as Falling Home. This edition has been fully revised with added and edited content.
