Absinthe Dreams

She’s his biggest childhood dream. He’s her worst enemy. But nothing will keep them apart when the truth finally comes out.

Trystan
I’ve been in love with Chloe Walker since we were kids.
She’s always been the center of my world, the only thing I ever wanted. But I may be the only thing in the world she can’t stand.
I’d kill to claim and keep her. She’d kill to never see me again.
At least, until life gets complicated and she has nowhere to turn.
She didn’t expect to find me at her brother’s.
She never wanted to tell me the truth.
But now, it’s out there, and there’s no taking it back.
I don’t care what anyone says, I’m not letting her go.

Chloe
When my married boss sent me inappropriate texts, I told his wife.
I didn’t expect him to run straight to my parents to twist the story.
Now, I’m hiding out at my brother’s… and so is the man I’ve loved my entire life.
Trystan thinks he can tell me what to do, but I’ve never been one to listen.
I just want peace and quiet, not his drama.
Yet, he’s constantly in my space, saying all the things I’ve wanted to hear my whole life.
And I’m falling for him the same way I always have.
No one warned me that giving him every piece of my soul would feel like this, though.
Or that loving this hard would shake the foundations of both our worlds.
Can this really end happily for us, or are we destined to break everyone around us?
