Everything I Crave

His demons deserve to be loved, as do mine. Willow Gunnar Keaton saved me, even if I don’t want to admit it. He took me in at my lowest, never giving a thought as to what it would mean for the future. After ostracizing everyone I once knew and loved, he does the unimaginable, offering me a job at The Bar and a place to live. Panic erupts, as it always does, at his undeserved kindness. I’m broken, splintered into so many pieces I’m afraid I will never be capable of a stable life. And yet… His inner demons call to me, soothing my own and creating a space where healing might be possible. If only I could let go and trust again… If only. Gunnar Willow Harper brought me back to life, even if she doesn’t know it. Life passed me by until she came back to her hometown, drinking herself into a stupor at my bar. I never imagined this would be the start of something, but things in this town never work out the way you think. I know what it’s like being an outcast, losing the part of yourself that you never thought would vanish and fighting every day to survive. My kindness only goes so far, but my attraction to her doesn’t have a limit. It grows each time I see her, but nothing can come of it. However… Her brokenness calls to me, reminding me of the battle I once fought and bringing out the protective nature I had almost forgotten. Along with her feisty attitude and haunted past, I don’t think I can give that up, no matter the consequences. Will Willow and Gunnar find everything they crave in Lupine Valley, or will the hardships in their past be too much to overcome? —- ISBN: 9798322643128
