I saw it then. The way he looked at me, it was stone cold. Whatever he might have felt for me before was now gone. I knew the problem wasn’t that I’d shot Tommy, or even that I’d taken away JT’s chance to collect on the bond percentage. It was because I’d broken his rules, every damn one of them. And it seemed he couldn’t forgive me for that.
I pulled away from him, blinking away tears. Whispered, ‘Okay, sure.’
His sigh was barely audible.
I’d never felt more alone.
So, so excited for this book. I’ve been hearing about it for *so* long on Twitter!
