Ashley
I was raised to be a murderer, and I'm damn good at it.
What I'm not good at…getting over Martino Vysotskiy.
It might be easier if he'd stop giving me those searing looks.
Death threats from the man I used to love weren't on my list of things to worry about,
but then again, neither was that bastard kidnapping me.
I know better than to let my guard down, but he's always been able to get to me like nobody else.
I think we've both believed too many lies about each other to have a chance at a life together... We haven't been the kids who swore to wait for each other in a long time, but when I look at him... I almost wish we were.
Time doesn't heal all wounds, not for killers like me. How can I turn a lifetime of lies into a life worth living for?
Genre: Literary Fiction
