Keeping Mr. Sweet by Misti Murphy

ASH
Sam Sweets has always been there to rescue me. He loved me when no one else could. Not even my own family. I loved him too. More than I ever thought possible. But love is dangerous. It destroys. It cuts deep and leaves wounds that aren’t visible to the naked eye. So I left him to protect him from the damage I could cause. It didn’t make a difference. I hurt him anyway. But maybe this time I can make it right.

I didn’t mean to fall in love with the broken girl next door. My sister’s best friend was off limits, and besides she was too young.But she was also mine. I shouldn’t have been surprised that she didn’t stay. She wasn’t ready for picket fences, wedding dresses, and babies when she had the world at her feet. Now she’s back. A scandal on her heels. Still the damaged girl I knew. And I want to make her mine all over again.
