She was the plain sister, the unpretty sister...and the sister who had a dark secret.
Jessica
I don't know how to stop feeling scared.
I don't know how to stop feeling unlovable.
And I don't know how to trust again...
An incident before my marriage takes away any safety I've ever known.
I've always known that I would have to marry a man chosen by my family, but from that moment on, I realize that monsters lurk in both suits and the shadows.
My future husband, Rafael, is a powerful Mafia man.
And he's just one more man who wants to hurt me.
Or so I think...until Rafael touches my heart and brings me back to life.
His words make my pulse flutter too fast, and his looks make shivers skate down my spine.
He tells me that he loves me.
And that he'll always protect me.
But I shouldn't have believed him.
I should have known that life isn't a fairy-tale.
That my happily ever after could be snatched away from me in the blink of an eye.
Because I'm wounded and fragile.
And the darkness is always lurking where you least expect it, waiting to strike me down.
