But if she knew about my past she’d run far and fast. Then I’d have no choice but to chase her, ‘cause I can’t let her get away. Cory I hate him. I love him. I want him. I need him. I hate myself for being weak and caving every time he touches me. But I can’t help myself. He’s just that good.

He’ll have to prove to me he’ll do anything to get me, even if he has to be crazy for this love. Madly in love Grayson George is a spoilt little rich by with delusions of grandeur and a backend that makes my knees weak with longing. I resisted. I fought. Heck, I even told my mama I’d move back home just to stop myself from wanting more than I should. But I should have known better than to taunt a man like Gray. Waking up married, with no recollection of how I got that way isn’t what frightens me. It’s the fact that when he touches me and makes me his, I am madly in love too. Wildly in love I have cheated, lied and done everything in my power for Tyson Fox to see me and know that we belong together. I want him so much and yet when his ex comes back into the picture and has him rethinking a relationship, I know, sometimes even cheating won’t get me the win. Sometimes, you have to leave the field and be the prize instead. Recklessly in love I finally stopped running and gave all of myself to Russell Mark. He’s my ideal. My heart. The only man I even look at anymore. And he’s left me all alone because as he’s proven over and over again, I’m poor second to his priorities. I love him.
