Gemma's Savior.

Loss had me doubting happily-ever-after existed… Would family secrets destroy the notion forever?

Every time my body trembled it took me back to the past, back to the day my childhood was turned upside down. What I thought was the perfect life—at least for a six-year-old—ended and sorrow swept in, freezing a part of me I didn’t think happiness could ever touch again.

Losing my parents rocked my world.

Meeting him flipped it on its axis.

I learned to mask and downplay my true feelings, using my sass to guide me through the hard times. I often hide my troubles, fears and despair that plague me from my best friends. But somehow with him, I struggled to pretend. And that terrified me more than those who wanted to harm me.

Some may say he was too old for me. Others might say it would never work. My heart was saying they were wrong. Could Bodie, the sexy single dad, be the first to show me what love was all about?
