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

Connor's POV

But then he looks at Rex in a way that tells me I’m not going to like what’s coming. That fucking serpentine smile returns. “Rex, my boy, I never told you how good it was to have you back as well. I‘m still so impressed that he bargained for your freedom with his, instead of leaving you in the dust. Anyone else wouldn’t have spared a second thought for their friend. Especially when they want out as badly as he did back then. But not him. Nope, he made it clear you both got to go or he wouldn’t finish the job.”

I go utterly still and pointedly give Vito a hard look as Rex glances at me, bewildered and confused. Vito feigns a gasp, his eyes widening. “Don’t tell me you didn’t know.”

Rex blinks at him, struggling to grasp this new information. “I assumed you just didn‘t consider me valuable enough," he manages, his voice distant.
