Innocence was never meant for the addictive…  Addiction was something Krit Corbin accepted as part of his nature a long time ago. He decided to embrace it and flip his finger at the rules. Women had always been the number one thing on his list of addictions. He couldn’t get enough. Being the lead singer in a rock band had only made access to his favorite addiction that much easier. Being alone was the only thing Blythe Denton understood. The small town minister’s family that raised her hadn’t accepted her as their own. The minister’s wife had always made sure Blythe understood just how unworthy she was of love. When Blythe is sent away to college and given a chance to finally be free of living as an unwanted burden, she looks forward to having peace in her life. Being alone isn’t something that bothers her. She escapes reality in the stories she writes. However, the ridiculously sexy tattooed guy who keeps throwing parties in the apartment above hers is driving her crazy. For starters, he doesn’t treat her like she would expect a guy with a different woman always hanging on his arm to treat someone as uninteresting as her. She looks nothing like the gorgeous women she sees parading in and out of his apartment, but for some strange reason he keeps showing up at her door. During a party at his apartment, Krit’s new neighbor comes to the door with her long brown hair pulled up in a messy knot and a pair of glasses perched on her cute little nose. She wants him to turn down the music, but he convinces her to stay. Krit Corbin may have just found his biggest addiction yet. And Blythe Denton realizes too late that she’s finally been claimed. by Abbi Glines

And now, with futures as clear as a foggy mirror, these two stumble through life's chaotic obstacle course, hoping not to trip on any life lessons or land face-first in heartbreak. Where will fate lead them next? Only time, and maybe a good laugh, will tell!

El cielo estaba teñido de un rojo profundo, como si incluso el sol hubiera decidido no mirar más aquella tragedia. Brahman permanecía inmóvil, sus piernas temblaban, pero su agarre no cedía. En sus brazos, el cuerpo de Abby yacía inerte, su sonrisa desvanecida, su luz apagada. La sangre de ambos se mezclaba, tiñendo el suelo bajo ellos. El joven miraba al horizonte, pero sus ojos no enfocaban nada. Una ráfaga de viento helado pasó, arrancándole un escalofrío que no era de frío, sino de vacío. —¿Cómo...? —murmuró, su voz apenas un hilo que se quebró al salir—. ¿Cómo es que todo llegó a esto? La pregunta no esperaba respuesta. Era un grito dirigido al abismo de sus propios errores, a las decisiones que lo habían traído hasta aquí.
