This Is What It Feels Like

I have a plan.Buy a car, keep my feelings locked down tight where they are safe, and stay a virgin.Should be easy, right?Except nothing in my life is easy.Especially since a tall, dark-eyed, mysterious guy shows up, occupying way too much space in my head, and smelling just too delicious for my own good.He makes me feel things I can't afford to feel, and when he lets me in on his painful past, a bond I didn't need or want is forged.Against my better judgment, I let him in, and now a devastating secret threatens to tear us apart.I had a plan.Why didn't I stick to it?Will we survive what life is determined to throw at us?
