Beautiful Surrender by Willa Kay

“All I have is time, and I’ll spend every moment of it convincing you that we are worth the risk.”

One tragic accident was all it took to turn my life upside down. Now the ranch I once loved feels like a reminder of everything I lost, and keeping people at a distance is the only thing that still makes sense.
Craving a distraction, I create an online identity where I can seek pleasure without the complication of feelings. No expectations. No risk. Until I meet Callie Cooper. At first, she’s just another anonymous subscriber, but she quickly becomes the one connection I can’t walk away from.
Callie is the only one who lifts the darkness, even if keeping her means breaking every rule I set for myself the day my life fell apart.

Fight or flight has been my default setting for as long as I can remember. So when my online crush becomes all too real, I do what I do best. I run.
Jaxon Hayes hides his damage behind piercing green eyes and a playful grin, and I bury mine beneath a layer of distrust and humility.
Our jagged edges don’t fit, but he keeps reaching for me anyway, and I’m starting to wonder what it would feel like to reach back.
