Storm (Ashes & Embers, #1)

by Carian Cole

“Relax, little one. I’m not going to touch you or hurt you. But I will be the ghost that always haunts you.”

I always do the right thing. That’s who I am. I’m honest, loyal, committed. The good girl. But now, I kind of like being a little bit bad. Being so close to something I shouldn’t be close to is a thrill I’ve never felt before.

I think most people settle for what’s safe at least once at some point in their lives, but a person who suffers from anxiety or depression will almost always run away from goals, dreams, and new life adventures to avoid the possibility of feeling anything new and somewhat scary. It’s better to live with the known, than face the unknown.
