Don't Say You're Sorry

Hawthorne University, Book 2

By: Bethany Winters

Narrated by: Liam DiCosimo, Nathan Wolfe

I didn't know if I'd ever see him again.

Adam Kane. My best friend, stepbrother... and the guy I fell for when I was eighteen.

Three and a half years ago, Adam had a choice to make.

Spoiler alert—he didn't choose me.

He left me after our high school graduation and took my heart with him.

Now he's back, living with me and my teammates, and the real kicker? He wants to be friends again. Brothers. He wants things to go back to the way they were before. Before he broke me.

Before he broke us.

My happy-go-lucky facade is slipping, and the person I keep caged beneath the surface is starting to become visible through the cracks.

I shouldn't be allowing him back into my life. It's too risky. But I can't push him away. Consequences be damned, I find myself doing the opposite, unable to resist taking everything I've ever wanted.

I've waited long enough. Now that he's within reach, I'm not letting him get away a second time.

I'm making him mine again.

And I'll do whatever it takes to keep him.

Amazing Story!!

I loved the story omg. The details and plot twist was ON POINT!! The ending was perfect and also bittersweet for the parents. I hope we get the next story for Atlas & Carter.

Good

It was a nice story. A bit of hatred a lot of hurt love which can't be denied after years. Heartbreaking moments felt good. And they felt like soulmates indeed. Nathan Wolfe as Adam in narration captured me.
