Second Chances Expire

SHE'S SUNSHINE TO EVERYONE BUT HIM. HE'S MIDNIGHT TO EVERYONE BUT HER. Bright, hopeful, and ever the optimist, KAYLA is no stranger to young love, the one where she didn't know what to look out for, what questions to ask, leading her to fall for a man she didn't fully know. By a serendipitous encounter, she crosses paths with him again, the one who broke her trust and her heart. Old feelings surface, burning in her like an unbridled sea of rage. Things are made worse when they're forced to be around each other in the coming months, and the hours with him just can't crawl by any slower. *** Sharp, vigilant, and remorseful, FRED learned the hard way that the love he wants is with the girl who fled when she learned the truth. He scoured for her for years, but never managed to find her. Eight years later, he saw her again, still as bright and beautiful as the day he met her. The sight melted his heart in a way that nothing else could. But coldness set in her like a storm. He begged her to hear him out, but she turned him away. He's now stationed to keep her safe. And while he's determined to right the wrongs of the past, who's to say it isn't too late? Who's to say that his second chance hasn't expired? [This book contains mature themes.
