Own Me - Paperback

by Shayna Astor (Author)

Will he become my savior, or will I lead him to ruin?

Jules

They say it's bad when the blade of a knife is what makes you feel.

Failing therapy, my psychologist suggests I try it in a group setting. The problem with that... is the people. Nothing is different, and I'm self-harming just as frequently.

Until Him.

He's going to be exactly the distraction I need-with his dark suit, darker attitude and mysterious slate eyes.

What I don't realize is how much he'll push my limits, my boundaries, and quickly wiggle his way into my closed-off world.

There's a tiny piece of myself that I keep locked away to protect my heart from inevitable breakage. If I let that piece of me go, that means I let him own me, completely.

Another blow-up and set of bloody knuckles lands me in group therapy.

It's exactly as I'd expect it to be.

Except her.

The stunning brunette who teases and stares through the entire first session.

As our flirtation continues, it becomes a dangerous game, which quickly turns into something more. From the moment we met, she's owned me. But I don't own her. Not yet.

Jules has a darkness surrounding her, enveloping her. And it's stronger than my own.

Can I save her from her demons, when I can't even save myself?
