Clean

Willow It took me thirty years to finally leave. I packed what little belongings I had and made my way to the smallest town, on the map, that I could find. I didn’t expect to find Elias Woods. Tall, broody, and closed off. With demons of his own, neither of us were ready for love. But sometimes you don’t get a choice. I should have known he’d find me. That he’d never stop looking. After all, he always gets what he wants. And he wants me. You can’t love someone else until you love yourself. But how do you learn to love yourself, while running from a past that won’t let you go? Elias Ten years, and the pain is still there. Secluded, alone, and shutting the world out is how I’ve been living. I had no plans to change until Willow Morgan. Blonde, angry, and walls up higher than mine. She was running from her past and I was living in mine. Neither of us had any business falling for each other. I never thought I’d find love again. But when she crawls through my darkness and brings light into my soul, I can’t resist the pull. How do I fully let her in knowing I don’t deserve happiness? Will the cleansing of the trauma of two broken souls leave them clean?
