Help Me Remember (Rose Canyon, #1)

by Corinne Michaels

“I had to give that fucking speech.” I roll my eyes. “You are a writer! You like words.” “On paper,” he says with a smirk. “I hate speaking. I was nervous.”

“But what if that single moment changed your entire story?”

You’re Eve, and I came to the garden when I shouldn’t have. I’m here, ready to cut the entire tree down, knowing that the temptation isn’t the apple, but you. Don’t you see, I’m the one who doesn’t deserve this moment.”

I want to fall apart in his arms because this is what I have always wished for. For him to be the one to catch me.

The safety came from knowing that you were the one person I could trust. I could share myself, my fears, and my heart, and it was protected.

I spent my entire life searching for something worth fighting for, and you were in front of me the whole time. You saved me, Brielle, even if you don’t remember doing it.

“I have loved you since before I knew what love was. I have dreamed of you since I knew what dreams were. You are the air I breathe. The beat of my heart. I love you so much that even the idea of losing this is too much for me to think about.”
