In My Remains

The way he looks at me when he thinks I can't see him is intense. He looks at me like I'm a prayer. Like my worth is above the stars and he longs to hang one just to reach me.

It's terrifying and exhilarating. Only, I could be his downfall.

Justin
I met her on the worst day of my life in what turned out to be the absolute worst day of hers. I didn't see her again for three years when fate or providence thrust her back into my path. Now she's all I see. All I can think about. Olivia Caldwell is everything to me. I can't imagine my life without her in it. But the demons she carries may not let me have her. And I don't know how to fight what I can't see. But I won't give up. Not till my last breath.

Olivia
On the worst day of my life, a stranger held me up when all I wanted to do was fall apart. Three years later, the universe has placed him back in my path and he's made it so I can't stop thinking about him. Can't stop imagining what it would be like to try again. But my past doesn't want to let me go. Losing my son before he was even born and then my husband to suicide nearly destroyed me. And the darkness created from it isn't finished with me yet. But I know I can't give up. Justin Mercer showed me the light. He gave me back the sun. I won't give up. Not till there's nothing left of me.
