Ryker Powers was the biggest prick I'd ever met. He was also my biggest mistake. He'd taken what he wanted then left, and I detested him for it. Not that the jerk had cared to stick around long enough to know how I felt. Everyone thought he was a perfect gentleman with all his quiet intensity but I knew better. I knew he had a filthy mouth. That he liked things dirty. He may have had people fooled into thinking he was a nice guy but I knew exactly who he was. He was a bad boy who'd ask for a light from the devil himself. And I wanted to see him burn. Until I realized-to my utter horror-that...

Birdie-- I fell in love when I was 16. I married him. I thought life was good. Now he's dying. Beck- I married an addict. I didn't know it at the time. She hid it well. Now she could die. When Bernadette-Birdie-Chapman and Beck Griffin meet in grief counseling they have an instant connection.

But neither is prepared when they fall in love. And the guilt is almost too much to bear. Thursdays-a love story of two broken hearts that find...

Drake Powers had to be the most infuriating piece of work I'd met in my entire life. Never mind his gorgeous face, body, and tattoos. That was beside the point. The things that came out of the cocky bastard's mouth-directed toward me, of course-had my own mouth falling open in shock. His controlling, bad-boy demeanor should've had me running in the other direction. But there was something behind that dominant presence of his. Something guarded. And I had to find out what it was. I knew it was probably in my best interest to stay away. But when was I ever one to listen?

Birdie- Two men. Two promises to stay with me, love me. Forever. I'd only ended up hurt, destroyed actually. Moving forward was all I could do, so that's what I'd done, leaving the past behind. Beck- Two women. One who'd broken promises to me. The other who felt I'd done the same to her. I was going to make things right even though I knew someone would get hurt in the process. Myself included. When Bernadette-Birdie-Chapman and Beck Griffin met in grief counseling, neither was prepared when they fell in love. Nor were they ready for the heartache that soon followed. It's been two years since...
