What He Doesn't Know (What He Doesn't Know Duet, #1)

by Kandi Steiner

Charlie Reid was married, she was Charlie Pierce now, and still, it didn’t matter. I loved her, anyway.

Music used to save me, but it had died along with my family three years ago. A mass shooting. A man who might as well have shot me dead, too, for how he stole every bit of joy in my life.

But it was a completely new woman I saw this time. A beautiful, strong, broken shell of a woman. A beautiful, strong, broken shell of a woman whom I wanted so desperately to save.

“Please, don’t do this.” “Do what?” “Don’t go to him.”

But if I was a river, and he was the ocean, then Cameron was the storm that raged over the point where we met. And lightning was about to strike.

They say there are two sides to every story, and it was in that moment, in that dark, desperate snapshot of my life that I realized I hadn’t asked him for his.
