What do you do when you find the girl of your dreams? Lie so you can become the man of hers.
The way Taryn Maddox and I first met wasn't ideal—I'd almost driven off a bridge and she was meant make any charges go away. Not exactly the best first impression.
Her, though? She's incredible. Stunning, smart, and possessing a soft warmth to her eyes, even when standing over the hospital bed of a degenerate (me). I've never been on the other side of that kind of compassion. Ever.
I knew I couldn't lose her. Not even during the moments she could see right into me and the incredible pain I'm hiding. It's only when a threat from her past resurfaces that I'm forced to evaluate whether my secrets are worth more than her life.
I'd do anything for the woman I'm falling in love with—except lose her.
I'm afraid if she ever discovers the truth about me, she'll become exactly that. An irretrievable dream.
