Special Edition Illustrated Cover

Ben
Spark of Hope: A bi-weekly trauma support group.
This is my nightmare. When I think of a support group, I think of sad people sitting around talking about their feelings and nothing changing.
And yet, when my brother and his best friend, who happens to be a therapist, presented the idea of holding the meetings at my gym, I caved.
Because I, Benjamin Price, have always tried to rescue the people in my life. But I can't. I've usually failed them.
Now, I'm hosting a trauma support group and desperately trying not to fall into my old habits-of attempting to save everyone.
And then, he walks in.
Bruised. But not broken. No matter how exhausted he may feel, a strength in him calls to me.
And there's no way I can ignore the need deep inside me to at least try.

Colby
I'm tired. I'm afraid. And I don't want to go back.
Not to the abusive relationship I told myself I was okay with for years.
But what am I supposed to do?
I have no real life skills. All my life, I've been told I'm pretty and that's it.
Then I walk into a gym, looking for a job, but I find so much more.
I don't want to trust Ben. I don't believe his help doesn't come with a price.
But what choice do I really have?
One thing's for sure . . . Neither of us are getting out of this intact.
What we lose though, that's anyone's guess.
