Life In Reverse

A second chance standalone romance
Vance...

Ember Bennett was my beginning...but she was also the end.

She was my downfall.

And I never even saw her coming.

She didn't burst into my life demanding to be noticed. Instead, she slipped in under my radar when I wasn't looking. Caught me off guard.

I should have been paying better attention.

Because I found myself drawn to her. Her quirkiness, her laughter, her brutal honesty.

I didn't ask for her. Still I found myself wanting her. Needing her. Craving her.

I just couldn't have her.

Ember...

I was minding my own business when Vance Davenport showed up.

He wasn't talking, yet somehow I heard him.

I wasn't looking, but my eyes sought him out.

He became something I never expected.

Until it all changed.

Then he became someone I wanted to forget.
