Camera Shy by Erin Osborne

Kreed ‘Link’ Winston
I’ve lived my life always wanting to find the woman of my dreams. Someone who could handle my shit, love the club, and understand my devotion for the men in the club. What I find is someone who’s been damaged. She’s scared of everything around her and carries the weight of her past daily. The second I see her, I know I’ve found my girl. The woman who will be my ol’ lady and wife.
Annistyn gets the help she needs and leaves my world. Our time apart doesn’t change how I feel about her and what I want. Everyone I know loves her and only wants the best for her. Especially one person who has taken on a fatherly role in her life. When she comes back, I make the biggest mistake of my life. Will it cost me my future with the only woman who owns my heart?

Annistyn Connors
My life has been nothing but pain and torment. From a young age I’m forced into being a servant and abused on a regular basis. I’m isolated and not allowed to live the life of a normal child. My days are filled with abuse, fear, and pain like I’ve never experienced before. They break me in ways I never dreamed possible.
I find my savior in the worst place. He changes my life like I knew he would. The only question I have is whether or not I’m strong enough to remain at his side. He needs a strong woman who doesn’t cower in every situation and I don’t feel as if I’ll ever become even a fraction of that person. During my road of recovery, I make several shocking discoveries and find myself. I put all of the shattered pieces back together. When mistakes are made, will I be able to forgive them or walk away for good?
