Remember Me

Natalie had always been a fairly happy girl with a life that she was content with. At least until six months ago when her lifelong best friend, with who she had shared everything with up until that point, suddenly decided that they needed to end their friendship with no warning. The life that she had known and loved shattered around her, taking her with it. Now, she's closed herself off from everyone around her and made a vow to herself to never let anyone in again in an effort to never have to go through that pain again. For six months, her plan had gone smoothly and seemed fail-proof. That is until Riley, who happens to be way too handsome and charming for his own good, abruptly finds his way into her life and flips her world upside down. No matter how much she pushes him away and tries to keep her vow, she keeps finding herself in situations that could ruin everything she's worked so hard for. The more she's around him and is struck by the light he brings into the world, the harder it becomes to keep her vow, and herself, safe. Her life starts to spin out of her control as she tries to figure out what Riley really wants, who he really is, and why her gut keeps telling her that there is more to him than she could ever imagine. As if her plate wasn't already full enough, she's also troubled with trying to figure out why Colton has been acting the way he has and why he really left her. Natalie's life has become anything but simple. But it can only go up from here, right? Wrong. The catastrophic rollercoaster that has become her life has only just begun. Will Natalie ever be able to let down the walls guarding her heart or will she miss out on any

Chapter 167

He brushes his thumb over my bottom lip and takes a tiny step closer to me, looking away toward a crowd of people walking by as he blinks rapidly a few times and shakes his head as if in disbelief, then meets my eyes again and continues. Allowing me to see the vastness of his honesty, gutting me with it as much as his next words.

“From the second I laid my eyes on you,” he starts, smiling faintly as if he knows something that I’m not aware of. “You made me feel alive for the first time in this dreadful existence of mine and far less lost, too. I was floored. I’m still not sure I’ve found my footing completely since then. And I’ve done nothing but work on it since that day, that moment. Thinking about you became an annoying habit and one that I wanted to be rid of. And no matter how hard I tried, I failed. You will never understand how rare and special you are, but I still hope that one day you will. If only just a fraction of it.”
