"Holly and Aiden broke up? Seriously? No way. Not those two."
Dumped.
No, not only dumped.
Blindsided and dumped.
I thought that Aiden McManus was my forever, my soulmate,
That was until he told me he was still in love with his ex.
I didn't want to believe him.
So, I convinced myself that our break-up was because of his upcoming deployment,
and not because he didn't love me.
Believing that, helped me get through those first months.
But after a while, I realized I just might be lying to myself.
And it was time to move on...
So, I moved on. Or tried to move on, anyway.
But that didn't work out so well for me, either.
And it practically got me disowned from my family.
After that, I finally started to get my life back together,
I had everything back under control…
…Or so I thought.
Until I found out Aiden was back
And now he's everywhere I turn,
Still pushing me away,
telling me he doesn't want me.
But every time he calls me Angel or reaches out to touch my cheek,
I know what he's not admitting to himself –
He still loves me.
And I'm going to prove it to him.
