Along with the most volatile, beautiful, tragic love story of all time.Over the past five years, I've settled into my second life. My "normal life."

But my past broke my heart into a million, unfixable pieces. So, I'm determined to keep it where it belongs-behind me. And the man responsible for the shattering of me?
