BLURB:
I get that you probably hate
me. I don't blame you. You'll probably hate me even more once this is all over.
That's okay, too.
Honestly, I hate myself.
But before you make any judgments about me, you should know I
never planned for things to go this way. I really do love him, and I never
meant to hurt him.
Still, I can't help feeling like I've just made the biggest
mistake of my life.
My name is Willow Lansing. I'm a gypsy, a vagabond, stealer of
hearts.
And it feels like I'm unraveling at the seams.
EXCERPT:
I sat at the dinette, map unfolded in front of me,
sipping at my extra cream and extra sugar mug of coffee. Hot chocolate might
have been my drink of choice, but days like this one required caffeine.
We had a full day of driving ahead of us, and I needed to get us
off the highway we were on. But in order to do that, I needed to have at
least some sort of idea as to where we were going. I hated doing that,
though—planning our destination. I felt like it made us easier to track.
Suspicious, I know, but I’d apparently become a little paranoid. Rightly so,
considering the razorblades ripping my heart to shreds over not leaving sooner,
for letting myself fall in love, and putting everything at risk.
How could I have been so stupid? So damned careless?
Oh, that’s right . . . Josh.
Just the thought of him triggered a pang in my chest, one so
painfully raw, I was sure my heart would fall right out onto the table, leaving
behind a gaping hole in my chest so deep and wide that it’d never be filled
again. Not by anything or anyone. Because there wasn’t a single person or thing
on this earth could ever give me what he had given me, something I’d
desperately needed when he’d found me on that bridge.
Hope.
As I’d stood up on that ledge that night, looking out
over the water, I thought of how easy it would be to just end it all. I
wouldn’t do it, not as long as Mya needed me. But there’d still been this
sobering realization just before he showed up . . . if I fell, there would be
no one there to catch me. No one to rescue me. Only me and the sky and the
ground below.
Not literally, of course, but figuratively.
Josh had been the one to give me wings with his willingness to
help a complete stranger, a crazy girl standing on a bridge, ready to plummet
to her death—or at the very least contemplating the idea. They grew stronger as
I got to know him, learned just how kind, gentle, caring, and sensitive he
really was. I bloomed under his attention, his affection, his love. And for the
first time in a very long time, I felt free. He had been more than I ever could
have wished for, perfect in every way.
But none of that mattered in the end—not his beautiful
soul, not his deep laugh that warmed me from the inside out, not the
way he loved me without question, limitations, or conditions. It couldn't, no
matter how much I wanted it to. Because things with wings have to fly in order
to survive.
And that’s exactly what I’d done.

Tortured (Tortured Soul #1) by Kate Givans
It’s been more than a year since the crash that killed my best
friend. Everyone else has moved on with their lives – his girlfriend, his
parents, our friends - everyone except me. But they weren’t there.
They don’t have to relive that horrible night, over and
over, like some sick, twisted movie. I didn’t ask for it, and I couldn’t make
it stop.
Then I met Willow.
With her unwavering compassion and carefree spirit, she put some
slack in the chains holding me to my past. Her bubbly optimism has taught me
what it means to walk away from tragedy and loss a better, stronger man.
There’s just one problem.
Underneath all that
beauty, she’s secretive. Evasive. I’m pretty sure she’s running from something,
but I don’t know what. The closer I get to finding out, the more it seems as if
she’s just another link in my chains of torture.
TORTURED IS $0.99 FOR A LIMITED TIME!
