I’m needy.
I’m broken.
Cutting breaks through my numbness, but only opens more wounds.
Depression, self-harm, bullying....that's my reality.
Sex and guys....that's my escape.
The space between the truth and lies is blurred leaving me torn, lost and confused. And while the monsters that live in my head try to beat me-- the two men that I love try to save me.
This is my story of friendship, heartache, and the grueling journey that is mental-illness.
Sometimes you have to get lost in order to be found…

Excerpt:
Married.
Thinking about Jace being married to someone else puts a crack in my armor. It
hurts; it burns my throat as I try to swallow the acidic thought of it down.
“Well
then, in four weeks you should get married. Buy a big fancy house and go to
charity dinners with your mother and wife. You can have the white picket fence
and everything. It sounds like a perfect happily ever after, Jace. Don’t give
it up for some broken girl you slept with once.” I bite out. I’m doing my best
to keep it together, but I’m slowly unraveling. I love him; I hate him. I want
him to stay; I need him to go. My contradicting thoughts circle my mind like
vultures.
“Jessica,
falling in love can’t always be a happily ever after or a once in a lifetime
kind of story. Those happen in books, in movies. This is life and it’s real.
Life has no script, no outline. We broke the rules of love long ago. All I know
for sure is that with you, the rules will never apply.”
Before
dejectedly walking out, he stops to look at me once more.
“And you
weren’t just a girl I slept with once. You’re a girl I’ve loved—always.” And
then he’s gone.
