nergy between them was enough to satisfy the desire hiding behind his playful demeanor. Until it wasn't, now he'll stop at nothing to make her his.

Tucker:

When I first met Taylor I was enthralled by her very being. The way she was confident, fierce, and loyal to those closest to her made her all the more captivating. My hopes for a chance with her were diminished when I found out she was unavailable in the way I wanted her most. After a year of settling for friendship, she's finally ready to start dating - only the person she chooses isn't me.

Taylor:

I swore to myself I would never be in the position to be hurt by love again. Or anything that dared to imitate it. But watching my friends hit milestones I secretly long for has me rethinking my stance on dating. I take a chance on a guy I thought I could trust, only to be proven a fool. When I'm on the verge of giving up completely, the person I least expect begins to show me how loved I could be- if I let him.
