  For months, I’ve stayed away from the men who broke me, piecing myself back together from the fragments they left behind. I thought I’d moved on and started to heal. But they refuse to let me go. No matter how hard I try to escape, they linger—ghosts haunting the edges of my mind. 
  When they force their way back into my world, claiming it’s for my protection, I make one thing clear: I haven’t forgotten the pain they caused. As more secrets come to light, I soon realize there’s only one man for me, and I’ll never let him go. 
  Not that he’d let me even if I tried.
