Finding You (Chikalu Falls, #1)

by Lena Hendrix

My Joanna he’d said.

“It used to say, ‘Nothing you could ever do.’ Once, I had talked to Dad about some of the shit I had gotten into overseas. Nothing really specific, but he knew it was hard on me, on all of us. He once told me, ‘Nothing you could ever do would make me love you any less.’ I don’t know…that just really stuck with me.”

I had come here because I felt lost. Apparently, being a successful adult male didn’t make you need your mom any less.

As she turned away, the distance between us expanded as I watched my soul walk away from me.

I will never love another woman. In that moment, I looked down at the torn Valkyrie wings tattooed on my forearm, and I knew I would spend the rest of my life missing that girl.

The diamond was probably a little big, but I was going to marry the fuck out of that girl and everyone was going to know it.
