My fate was sealed the first time I met the gorgeous, fun, and older Ollie Hale. Though forbidden, he captivated me, and for years, I couldn't let him go.

I never thought I'd have him, but then... an unexpected kiss and the start of something new. My heart aches for his love while my mind tells me to run.

I've seen this story before, and it doesn't end well. He's a damaged man unable to give me more, and I'm a woman who wants it all. I've dreamed of my happily ever after, but I'm terrified we're heading toward a tragic ending.

Now that I know what it's like to be with him, I won't be able to survive without his strength, despite the downward spiral catapulting us toward our inevitable fate.

I'm just praying it doesn't break me.

And if I break, was he worth it?

**Book 3 in The Beautiful Souls Collection. Captivated Souls can be read as a standalone but would be more enjoyable if read after Bared Souls and Kindred Souls as there are references to those stories throughout.

**Intended for adult readers due to mature content.
