But is she best for my screwed up, damaged, guarded heart? … I think she is. My mandated counselors don’t agree, however. But I really don’t care about them.

The person I do very much care about agreeing with me though is the girl that owns this mangled heart that keeps beating in my chest—but it’s only doing it for her. So the future is a little daunting for me at the moment. I mean, well, did you hear what she said in the hospital???? This is the second book (the conclusion) to Melanie Marks’ story titled: “GRIFFIN.” Please note: This is not Griffin’s version of Melanie Marks’ book, His Kiss. That book is called: “HER Kiss (Griffin)”
