Falling Embers (Tattered & Torn, #2)

by Catherine Cowles

“Shut up! I might be twenty, but I know my own mind. I know that I’ve been slowly and steadily falling in love with you since you showed me I could touch the stars. I’ve fallen in love with you, watching you care for those two precious girls. I’ve fallen in love with your bravery every time you run into a fire instead of away. I’ve fallen in love with how you make me feel seen in a way I’ve never experienced before. So don’t tell me I don’t love you.”

It seemed as if a force born of the two of us carried me to him, a creation that would only ever be ours.
