Where the Heart Heals

Comes with vellum overlays.

An unbreakable friendship. A brutal secret. A love born from heartbreak.

Marnie

Sebastian’s always been Marnie's knight in shining armor, but their love is far from a fairytale. Especially because Sebastian doesn’t know how badly Marnie wants to dance with him. But when she decides to dance with someone else, soon she finds herself on the shoals of the worst night of her life and Marnie knows there’s only one man who can save her…

Are these two destined to endure this storm together? Or will the secrets they keep destroy them both in more ways than one?

Sebastian

All Sebastian has ever wanted is Marnie for as long as he can remember, but destroying their friendship out of selfishness isn’t a risk he’s willing to take. But when that selfishness becomes the reason Marnie finds herself in a terrible situation, the only thing Sebastian can do is spend the rest of his life trying to atone for what happened…even if it means confessing the truth.

Can Marnie find it in her heart to forgive Sebastian for what he’s done? Or will their love break before it’s even begun?
