Love
endures all things.
Darby
McKenzie’s heart started beating funny the day that she met Trace Chamberlain.
She was four, he was five, and that meeting altered the course of both their
lives forever.
Trace was
born into a nightmare. Before meeting Darby and her family, the only love he
ever knew was that of his twin brother. The two of them endured years of abuse
that left scars. The permanent kind.
For Trace,
meeting Darby was like catching a rainbow. She exploded into his life in a pop
of Technicolor that awakened his senses. She wasn’t just his best friend—she
was his life. His touchstone, his safety, his heart—she was everything.
Darby had
been through it all with Trace and her love for him never wavered for a second.
But no amount of love could make Trace believe that he was worthy of her.
Knowing that she deserved better, Trace pushed her away, when what he really
wanted was to pull her closer. Emotionally destroyed and bitter from the back
and forth, Darby finally let go and decided to move on.
Sometimes
hitting rock bottom is the only way to understand that you need to change.
Realizing that losing Darby means losing everything, Trace sets out to fight
for the love of his life.
Is it too
late for Darby and Trace to have a happily ever after?
Excerpt
#1
“We can
talk every day on the phone or by text and Skype, right?” he asked anxiously.
I knew if
I said yes, he’d call every day.
Distance would be useless if I didn’t put my foot down.
“Once a
week,” I told him. “Pick a day and we’ll
talk then. This is our time to redefine our relationship.”
“I don’t
want anything to change,” he complained.
“I don’t want to see less of you or spend six fucking days a week not
hearing your voice. Even thinking about doing it makes me feel sick.”
I
understood how he felt because I was experiencing all the same anxiety, but I
stood my ground.
“This is
the way it needs to be for a while,” I answered. “You can like it or lump it, but I’m not
backing down. Call me next Friday.”
When I
went to leave, I let him hug me because friends hugged. I counted off five seconds and then pulled
away. He tried to hold tighter, but I
wiggled away. The benefits of being
strong meant that he couldn’t keep me where I didn’t want to be.
“We can’t
hug?” he asked in a panicked tone.
“We can,”
I said calmly. “When I hug Tristan, it’s
probably a two or three second process.
I gave you five. Friends don’t
hug for minutes at a time unless there’s a crisis.”
“This is a
crisis! You’re fucking leaving me.”
I knew
then that drawing it out any more was only going to make things worse. There were times when cutting something short
was the way to go, and that moment was one of them.
“This
isn’t a crisis,” I refuted calmly. “This
is a reality. I’ll talk to you next
week. Take care of yourself.”
I kept my
chin up as I walked away, and I ignored him when he called out my name three
separate times.
Excerpt #2
You’re playing dirty,” he said huskily.
“Who, me?” I scoffed.
“Never. What makes you say that?”
He rubbed his hand along the back of his neck as he stared
at me, his eyes taking in every inch of my face.
“I don’t know, Darby.
Maybe it’s the fact that you’re naked except for a pair of high
heels? I don’t stand a chance.”
“Oh!” I answered with a laugh as I gestured down at my
body. “This old thing? This isn’t me playing dirty,” I assured him.
“You don’t think so?”
“No,” I assured him.
“But this is.”
I dropped to my knees without warning, and I smiled as I
came face to face with the fact that he had a very visible hard-on.
“This is crazy,” he groaned as I ran my hand over his
erection.
“Something like that,” I agreed.
I worked fast to get his tuxedo pants open, quickly
pulling them down along with his boxers so that I could grip him. Gripping his erection, I looked up at him and
wiggled my brows suggestively.
“Did you still want to sleep on the couch?”
The pained look that flashed across his face was
priceless, and I choked out a laugh as his eyebrows shot up toward his
hairline.
“I should go sleep on the couch,” he answered
huskily. “But I can’t.”
