Here & Now

Due to the sexual nature of some of the scenes present in the book along with the language (which may offend some readers), it is recommended for ages 17 and up. A father convicted of criminal mischief and sentenced to twenty years in prison. A mother whos so lost in the bottom of a bottle of pills, most days Im not even sure she knows her own name. Youd think with role models like that, Id know what to avoid. But if you know anything about me at all, nothing simple is ever really that simple. Cadence changed all of that. Making me feel and experience things that for the last eleven years I thought were only meant for fairy tales and dreams. She gave me my heart back, bringing hope and faith along for the ride, until all I could hear was her. She became my world, a beginning with no end, and it was so damn beautiful that I started to believe there was nothing that would ever tear us apart. Until something, or rather someone did. Me. Ive been told that love isnt about trying, failing and giving up when things get hard. That real love is continuing to try despite it, so just like a year ago, Im going to do it again, and this time around our beginning will have an end. Cadence and Dillon together. Forever. Im in the fight of my life and this time, I dont plan to lose.
