Falling Embers (Tattered & Torn, #2)

by Catherine Cowles

All you needed was a good hundred yards to pick up speed, but I didn’t like missing any part of the journey. It was like life. There were peaks and valleys. Times to slow down and appreciate the beauty around you, and times to ride like hell.

“You’re this explosion of light in a world that’s mostly gray. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

So many people in this world carry trauma, but it’s each person’s responsibility to process and deal with it so they don’t hurt others because of it. It’s time for her to do that.”

“Everyone but you could see how much you owned me, way before you should’ve. Never feel more alive than when I’m with you. You’re like a fire that lives inside me. Even when I thought it was all burned out, there were still embers that lived in my bones. They’ll always be there, and I wouldn’t want it any other way.”
