I was on the right track: captain of the soccer team, grades were passing, and I had the respect of my team. Girls threw themselves at me. It was every twenty-year-old's dream.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen I saw her...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne look at her, and it all changed. Something about her drew me in. A sense of protectiveness to guard this small, sad girl. In her eyes, I could see the fight she had within herself...and I wanted to be there for her.

Not once had I described a guy as beautiful, but that's what he was. He struck something in me, and I didn't know how to handle that. I was chasing nightmares no one knew about. Ones I kept to myself for a reason. Could I let this new person into my life that I had kept closed off from many for far too long? What if I let my guard down and he ended up destroying me?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd that became my greatest fear...\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lexi Bissen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1088086470\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781088086476\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alexis Bissen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/17\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 394\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.98d","brand":"Lexi Bissen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44132472750335,"sku":"9781088086476","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_300c56b9-0009-4961-a3c2-1352c5b22046.jpg?v=1687480409","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-act-of-trusting-lexi-bissen-9781088086476","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
