Katy
I’ve never been in love, and I promised myself I never would be.
Love weakens you, dismantling you piece by piece until there’s nothing left of the person you once were. I’d witnessed that firsthand with my own parents, watching my mom lose herself as she withered away in my father’s shadow.
Love forces you to let your guard down, leading you to trust those unworthy of the dirt at the bottom of your shoes. Trust was something to be earned, not given away freely. I was still a child when I learned I couldn’t trust anyone. Especially men.
When it came to men, my mantra was simple: Take what you want and get the hell out of there.
Then Malachi came along. The one man I didn’t want to lose, and the one man I couldn’t have. He’d made the most sacred of promises, binding him to his faith—and his chastity. But the way he looks at me is anything but chaste.
And our arrangement just may put those promises he made to the test.
Malachi
I made a promise.
To be obedient.
To preach the truth.
To remain celibate.
Easy sacrifices to make when you’re nursing a grieving heart.
Then she came along. Eyes as blue as the sea. Hair flaming red. She could condemn my soul to hell, and I would still worship at her feet.
That’s why I had to stay away from Katy Vickers, watching her only from afar.
But as it so often does, fate intervened, turning that plan on its head. And now, to ensure her safety, I have to keep her within reach, instead of safely away from me and the thoughts that ran through my head whenever she came around.
Because no matter how ironclad, when the heart is involved, a promise is as fragile as glass. And the shards from a broken promise will bleed you dry.
