He was the one that stayed behind.

I was in love with Jake Clarke. He was my best friend and my soulmate. We planned our future together and it made sense until one day I just walked away from it all. I never told him why. I had my reasons for keeping the truth from him, even when it meant breaking my own heart for ten years.

I have been able to avoid Jake and knowing anything about him for the past decade. Until now. Our paths intertwined again and the love that never faded, rekindled. But the truth that was never shared, it remains a secret.

How much can you forgive before you shut the door forever?

How many secrets can you keep before the truth shatters your heart?
