Title: False Start
Author: Lila Felix
Release Date: 11/22/13
Rex has firsthand knowledge of how love can rip a person to shreds.
How it can swallow a person whole, leaving them gasping for air, and
dying a lonely person. He watched his mother give everything she had to
his father and then she died, too weak and frail to continue on. His
father, the deranged man who could barely feed himself—taking care of
him left a permanent crease on Rex's heart. He swears he can still hear
his pleas for help in his sleep. Nothing can give him solace from the
painful memories.
Except this girl.
Hayes is a
constant and consistent optimist. She's witnessed her mother and
father’s almost perfect marriage and taken it as an example of what she
wants. But she can’t seem to find a guy who is sincere. She’s dated them
all— snake-in-the-grass jerks, straight-up commitment-phobes, fakes and
phonies alike. They all fit her perfect dream on the outside, but when
the relationship gets to the nitty gritty, they all crumble like stale
bread.
Unable to find a better man, she settles for nothing instead,
wondering if a man who treats her right could even exist. With perfect
parents and a team name like I Kilda Girl, that man would have a lot to
live up to.
Until this boy.
When she
sees a rugged, tattooed guy who shows up at all the derby bouts, she
wonders if chasing the bad boy might just be right.
