About me.I’d chased his memories for so long that this was just another far cry to keep my sanity. No good ever came from chasing ghosts, though, and having that knowledge should have kept my feet firmly planted. It didn’t.

We both knew I didn’t belong, but it didn’t stop us from using each other to make it through until next high. I needed an escape, and he sought a safe haven.The thing about ghosts was they appeared to you when you least expected them, and you couldn’t run from someone who didn’t really exist.Each book in this series is written so that they may be read as a standalone; however, we do recommend that you read this book after Cocked Hammer It is not necessary to fully enjoy or understand this story, though. less
