Without Bound (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798330214037)

She's the forbidden fruit and I am Adam, tempted by what I cannot have.

Like a song she called to me, serenading me with the lyrics that would unlock my heart and a desire that never existed until her.

I knew there was danger involved, but my will and my sanity was only as strong as the man who possessed it. And I was a weak man.

My friends kept our love a secret from the one man who could threaten to tear us apart.

A man who was more like a brother than a best friend. A man that she called family. And when the chips fell, there was no one there to catch me.

No one but her.

Anais.

My butterfly.

Now I stand on my own, only her by my side, as we fight the world against us.

The family I once would give my last breath for won't lend me a hand when I'm down. It's a battle between love and loyalty, and I'm faced with losing it all.

Do I give up the friendships that have seen me through the worst? Or do I let love rule?

There are only two things I know to be true.

Setting a creature that beautiful free would bring me a lifetime of pain.

But holding on too tight could only prove to suffocate her.

Whichever path I choose will bring me a pain like I've never known.

Maybe it's time I walk alone.
