Secret Haven (Sparrow Falls, #6)

by Catherine Cowles

Kye was an invisible brand on my bones. Something I carried with me wherever I went, in whatever I did—even if no one ever knew.

Even if I’d only ever have pieces of her. Those tiny shards were better than anything else.

“It’s not because I don’t want to. I’ve been dreaming of you since I was sixteen. You’ve been my one spark of light in the hellish dark. The only good thing in my life. But I won’t risk losing you or the family you gave me. Because I’m sure of one thing: I’ll fuck this up. And I’m not ruining the only good in my life because of it.”

“You’re my person. The spark in the shadows. You carried me through when I didn’t think I’d survive. So, I’m never going to stop demanding that this world give you everything.”

“I will honor you every day of this marriage. And every day after it’s done. And no matter what comes, my battered and blackened heart will always be yours.”

“If you like your eyes in your head, get them the hell off my wife,”

Anson’s lips twitched. “Love the caretaking.”

So, don’t you ever say a word to disparage my husband ever again.”

You’ve always been hope to me. You were my safe haven, the place I returned to again and again, even if I could only hold you in the secret places of my soul.”
