Wild Hearts

This is book four in the "Hearts" series. It is not necessary to read books one through three (Hearts on Fire, Shattered Hearts, and Reviving my Heart), before reading Wild Hearts, but it may provide a deeper understanding of the characters if you do. Although the books can be read independently, they are intertwined and there is some overlap. This is Chris and Tori's story.

When I was eight years old, I met Tori. By the time I was ten, she hated me. At twelve, in a dark closet, I kissed her for the first time. Fireworks exploded between us and I was in love. Two years later, she let me kiss her again and I knew I needed to make her mine. She was a feisty thing though, and she kept me waiting. Finally, at sixteen, she agreed to give me a chance. It was the first of many.

It was everything I ever imagined...only better. I adored her. I would do anything for her. She completed me. Tori was more enticing than any drug and I was totally addicted.

We were perfectly imperfect together. We were wild and untamed. We challenged each other. I pushed and she pulled. But, sometimes, a push is just one push too many and there are no more chances.

*****

I'd built a wall around my heart. I didn't want to get attached. I wouldn't risk my heart. That's why I stayed away from Chris. He was soft, sweet, bad, rough, and an all-around great guy. If I let him in, I'd be done for. He had the power to destroy me.

He knocked down my wall, brick by brick. Assured me that my heart was safe. I gave him everything. Every part of me was laid out, raw and exposed. I trusted him. I trusted him with all of it.

I was such a fool!
