She made me a better man, but I still wasn't good enough to keep her.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, with sleeve tattoos, ripped muscle and a cold-hearted stare, I am who I am. The bad boy she knew to stay away from.

I knew we were never supposed to last. But the way her lips tasted, the way her curves felt under my hands... I couldn't let go. I did everything I could to keep her.

I put on a ring on her finger and straightened out my life. All for her.

I should've known better.

One mistake tore us apart and I don't know what I can do to salvage what we once had.

I knew it wasn't supposed to last, but if I could make her stay with me once... I can do it again.

Watch me. I love my sweetheart; I'm not losing her again.

Scarred can be read as a standalone, but it is highly recommended that the first book in Kat and Evan's duet, Damaged, is read first.
