Because of Me

Katie Pearson

She aspires to be the girl he deserves.

Becca Mills is desperate to give her son a better life. To do that, she heads to a new town where nobody knows her, except her mother and her mother’s dealer. When Becca meets Dereck, a tatted mechanic who enjoys making her blush and earning her smile, things get complicated. Who does she trust? The man who knows all her secrets? Or the man who looks at her like she’s his everything?

He’s determined to prove she’s worthy of love.

Dereck Pemberley knows what it’s like to live with regrets. He’s had to carry the guilt of his brother’s death for the past three years. However, when he meets Becca, there’s something about her blushing face and hard-earned smile that makes his guilt and sobriety bearable. She may believe they’re too different, but Dereck knows better. He’ll stop at nothing to keep the girl he loves safe when harm has it’s hands wrapped around her throat.
