Blurb
She ruined me. The walls I’d built were for a reason, locking myself in my own personal
prison was out of necessity. Now, with the rubble at my feet, I could do nothing
but watch as she ripped my soul in two, taking the half she owned with her.
The need to settle down, to find that missing piece, for the all-consuming love, was never
Drew’s plan. He’d spent the better part of a decade suppressing all memory of
love, of life. He told himself he had the essentials; the impressive apartment, the
successful club, the simple uncomplicated life he’d worked so hard to create. All
he needed. Until Mia.
She entered his life like wildfire, burning through his world and destroying all pretences of
simplicity, bringing out everything he’d fought to deny.
Longing.
Warmth. Love.
She made him want it all but Amelia lived in the darkness. It had always been her constant,
yet terrifying companion. A shadow she'd never been able to out run and one
fateful night, it finally consumed her. Shattering both their worlds and burying
them deeper in the dark.
Drew will stop at nothing to save her, for their happy ever after but, Mia isn’t the only one with demons ... it’s a long way out of the darkness.

Excerpt
~Drew~
I turn on the shower on full strength, the fog filling the room within seconds as I gingerly take off my jacket, discarding it on the tiled floor of my bathroom. I remove my shirt and tie, the fabric sticking to the cold sweat I’ve been harbouring for what feels like days. I kick of my shoes and socks, tossing my belt along with my trousers on the pile and step into the scorching heat.
The burn is instant, my skin turning pink with the force but the pain that should have greeted me is just a distant memory, I still feel naught. I start to scrub at my skin, harder and harder, trying to erase the numb deprecating feeling that's over taking me. Until every inch of my body looks raw but still I feel naught, just a vague memory of what should be there. I give up, again, and shut off the shower.
The silence that follows almost deafening but I continue to stand there, with no will to move. The fog has long gone and my body is covered with goose bumps when I finally bend to scoop up my discarded clothes. I entertain the idea of burning them, watching the flames engulf the rancid memories attached to them but I stop mid thought when my foot makes contact with a sharp edged card on the way out and my heart skips a beat, slowly starting to gain speed as the significance comes to the surface.

Book 1
Ahead of
the Darkness
It has been a long, long time since I’ve seen
your little face, chérie. Not once did you visit. That really hurt; after all, it was
thanks to you I was convicted. That’s not something you forget.
I thought it was time— a visit was due. Seeing
as you wouldn’t come to me, I thought it only right I come to you. Sadly, you
weren’t home, but your furry feline was more than accommodating . . .
I’ll be seeing you soon, mon chérie. I’ll always
find you . . .
For six years, a letter has dictated Amelia’s future.
She’s running from a past that refuses to stop, always trying to get one step
ahead. Amelia is clever and resilient, and refuses to slip up.
Relying only on herself, she’ll be anything and
anyone she needs to survive. But everyone slips up . . . eventually. You can’t
always stay ahead of the darkness.
