The Promise

~Jacquie~ All my life I wanted one thing, and one thing only…to be loved by someone I love. I didn’t have the love a child should have growing up. My parents only cared about themselves. The only person I could count on is my cousin. My life has been hell. I thought I was in love, but I was fooled by a narcissist. Constantly looking over my shoulder and wondering when he will find me again. Then I'm introduced to him… Chance Carter. He wants to protect me. He wants to take care of me. The only problem, I’m scared to let him in. I’m scared he is going to do the same thing my ex did. Can I get my happily ever after? ~Chance~ After losing my love, my life has been a nightmare. I find myself waking up in a sweat most nights. I didn’t think I could have feelings for another woman. But then my best friend asks me to do something I would never do for just anyone. I make a promise to him. Will she give me a chance? Will I lose her before I get a chance of having her?
