No Second Chances - Marissa Farrar - Bog

Gabi...When I was seventeen years old, I was told to stay away from Cole Devonport. Kids like him only ever meant trouble. I should have listened, but I didn't, and surprise, surprise, I was the one who got hurt. But escaping Cole didn't mean the end of my pain. Life has a way of screwing me over, and after joining the Army as a way of forgetting him, I suffered a loss I'll never recover from. So now here I am, back in the town I ran away from, with my alcoholic father apparently looking after me.The last thing I need is Cole showing up on my doorstep because nothing has changed-with his prison tattoos and don't-screw-with-me edge, Cole Devonport still means trouble...Cole...I let everyone down all those years ago. I made mistakes and I'm not proud of them, but I've done my time and now I just want to keep my head down and get on with my life. I thought I was doing exactly that until I heard Gabriella Weston was back in town. Despite what she thought, I was always in love with her. She might hate me, but whether she knows it or not, she also needs me.I want to make it up to her, but with my past still trying to pull me down, perhaps it would be best if I just stayed the hell away like she keeps telling me to. Problem is, I can't seem to resist her, and I'm the type of guy who always gets what he wants...
