               ♦ ♦ ♦ Some people never get a second chance with their first love. For me, it’s a dream I can’t afford. Growing up in a religious cult, I knew loss, fear, and punishment. Hope was a foreign concept. Even if it’s Cian Murphy. From the moment I met him, I wanted him. He’s the only man I’ve ever loved. He tells me I’m his everything—an idea as gallant as the man himself. But the hell I escaped never stops haunting me.  Terror nips at my heels and breathes down my neck.
