SYNOPSIS
Not afraid to speak his mind or
make a scene, Nathaniel Kelly has made a name for himself as country music’s
ultimate bad boy.
Covered in tattoos, singing songs
about drugs, drinking and heartache, Nate acts more like an out of control rock
star than the grandson of one of the genres most influential and legendary
stars. Every man wants to be him. Every woman wants just one night with the
hard-rocking country rebel.
Except me. I just want to know that
the boy I used to love is happy and that I didn’t break his heart in vain.
That’s why I buy every magazine that even mentions his name; at least, that’s
the story I tell myself.
When my friends gave me a birthday
present any fan would die for, I was suddenly face-to-face with the man I never
thought I’d see again. My body wasn’t supposed to react to him the way it did.
And, Nate sure as hell wasn’t supposed to look at me the way he used to.
Can someone you loved as a teenager
really have a hold on your heart twelve years later? Is it ever too late to say
you’re sorry and make up for past wrongs? I’m about to find out.
EXCERPT
I’d always planned to get the hell
out of my hometown as soon as high school was over. Hell, once I hit tenth
grade, I couldn’t pack my bags fast enough. I wanted nothing more than to see
that shitty little town, and all of its residents, shrinking in my rearview
mirror as soon as possible.
What I hadn’t planned on was having
someone in my life who was so important that he made me question everything and
wonder if I should stay. Or, that someone giving up everything so he didn’t
have to leave me. I couldn’t let him do it, couldn’t let me be the thing that
held him back, couldn’t let his love for me destroy his dreams. So I did the
only thing I could do; I wrecked it all.
For me, there was no simplicity of
burning bridges. No, I strapped dynamite to every single one, blowing them into
tiny smithereens. Then, I bulldozed each surviving piece into a pile, doused it
with kerosene, and aimed a blowtorch toward the debris, just to make sure there
would be nothing left. As the flames roared to life, I danced around the blaze,
drinking whiskey straight from the bottle, toasting the life I’d had, acting
like a crazed woman performing a sacred ritual. As the last of the ashes
drifted into the sky, fading from red hot into cold black, I sobbed, knowing
there was no way I could ever undo the damage I’d just done.
It was stupid, dangerous, and
devastating, but I needed to make sure every single relationship I had was
destroyed. The only way I would be able to move on somewhere else was if there
was no reason left for me to go back, and no way I could ever show my face
there again, even if I’d wanted to. Unfortunately, I needed to hurt him, to
decimate him, so he would hate me and could let me go and build a stronger life
without me.
The one thing I never thought
about, the one thing I hadn’t taken into consideration, was that most
eighteen-year-old girls are idiots. They run on pure emotion, thinking with
their heart, not their head. I had thought I was so mature, that somehow I had
all the answers and knew what was best for everyone, so I made their decisions
for them. In reality, I was just a naïve, small-town girl with more fashion
sense than common sense – and looking back at the pictures proves that I didn’t
know fashion for shit. What seemed like the perfect idea all those years ago
was now my biggest regret.
