A broken soldier …
Dylan Meyer lived his life fast
and hard, doing anything to keep his emotions masked. In Crystal Gulf, Texas,
women, drugs, and alcohol are in abundance. After all, it’s a college town. But
eventually, his lifestyle caught up to him. The birth of his daughter, Aubrey,
forced him to grow up and take responsibility for his actions. He let his vices
go, cleaned up his act, and allowed himself to fall for Harley Evans.
But Dylan is a liar.
He lied to himself. To Harley. To
his best friend, Bach. And then he lied himself right into a U.S. Army uniform.
When he went to war, he left Harley with his best friend in hopes that he’d
look out for her while he was deployed. Not in his darkest nightmares did he
think Bach and Harley would fall in love.
A fallen angel …
Hillary Hayes is an
eighteen-year-old sophomore in college who understands the importance of rules.
She’s followed them her entire life. She gets perfect grades, avoids dating,
and won’t stray from the future her mother mapped out. On the outside, she’s
perfect. Inside, she’s drowning.
That carefully crafted future
disappears when she downs a beer at a party. What’s left of that night is the
wreckage of the girl she used to be.
Until she meets Dylan. Her
brother’s best friend.
When Dylan returns from war, he
can’t move past the betrayal. His daughter’s growing up without him. Flashbacks
and PTSD from his time in Afghanistan consume him. He loses himself in a dark
depression. There is no light in his darkness …until he meets Hillary. His best
friend’s little sister is the only good thing among all the bad.
He’s her safe place.
She’s his light.
Can two damaged souls ever find
peace, or is the damage too much to overcome?
*** AUTHOR’S NOTE and CONTENT WARNING: This story contains triggers for
rape victims and soldiers. I did my best to remain respectful to the healing
process for both. Hillary’s feelings are hers alone and ONLY represent how she
feels about her attack. Dylan’s emotions about his time at war are his ALONE.
You are all strong and beautiful, and you will soar again! ***

Author InfoWhen I walk into a book store I feel at home. When I smell the pages of a brand new book things make sense. When I read I am who I always wanted to be. I read to escape and I write so others can as well. My family, my actress dog Bella, coffee, and a steamy love story are a few of my most precious things. My Sweet Demise is my debut new-adult contemporary romance novel. Keep up to date with future releases: shanavanterpoolauthor.wordpress.comAuthor Links:
