My best friend dropped a bombshell, leaving me shattered. The past came rushing back and threatened to consume me.
No one knew. How could they? I spent the last decade putting everyone else first. Anything to keep the attention off me.
Because I was over him.
Over us.
It didn't matter until it did.
Alcohol numbed the pain, making it easy to fall back into the arms of what never should have been.
Now, we're stuck planning a wedding together.
I wouldn't make the same mistake twice.
My broken heart couldn't be ignored.

With a father like mine, I was blind to see how badly I screwed up all those years ago. Time changed a lot of things, but she still had the same effect on me as she had nearly fifteen years ago when we first met.
We shared a past, something we kept to ourselves and moved on from.
Or so I thought.
A reconnection, a drunken night, made me realize she did something to me no other woman ever had.
She was a force to be reckoned with, and if I didn't fix my ways and be the man she needed, I would watch her walk away like I did nearly a decade ago.
Only this time, I don't think I'll ever get over it.
She was mine, and I would make her see it.
