Wake Up Call - Victoria Ashley - Bog

I've been broken my entire life. Who knows... maybe I was born broken.Maybe I was meant to hurt. Maybe my heart was meant to ache.That didn't change the fact that I needed to escape. That I needed to start over somewhere else.I knew I was going, but not where I'd stop.The last thing I expected once on my own, was to be spending my nights stripping at a club in Florida, barely getting by. I should have known running from a past wouldn't make it stop haunting me, because misery will always find me and tear me down until there's nothing left of me. It always has...Things can always change though, right?Like looking up at a handsome, tattooed stranger, and with one stare he has me questioning everything I've ever believed in. I wasn't expecting or prepared for someone to storm into my life. Not him.Jace Montgomery.The name I'll never forget. The need to save me lies in his eyes, but I don't need a savior. Trust. It's what he wants to teach me. That I'm something more than what I've grown up believing. How am I supposed to let him in and show me I'm something when I've spent my entire life being nothing? He won't give up though, and honestly, I'm hoping he never does...Because maybe... just maybe... I am worth saving after all.
