Mallory The first time I kissed Christopher Johnson, I knew he would be my biggest mistake. It didn't stop me from wanting him though, and when the ghosts from my past came barging into the present, it didn't stop me from agreeing to let him help. It was supposed to be a simple business arrangement, a few months of playing a role that came far too easily to the both of us, but it wasn't long before it became more. Love. Devotion. Heartbreak in its truest form. Some people say life is for the living, but I say life is for the prepared. For the planners who know that controlling every piece on the board is the only way to get the result you want. To avoid unfortunate complications like having your heart broken by a man past experiences taught you, you never should have trusted in the first place. Christopher There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do for Mallory Kent. I think I knew it the first time I laid eyes on her, and it's remained one of my unspoken truths for the two years that I've known her. But I never thought I'd get the opportunity to do anything about it because Mallory is one of those people who doesn't need anyone. She's strong, serious, and always in control of every situation around her, which is why the second I see her looking panicked and uncertain in the arms of a figure from her past, I don't think. I just act. I had no idea that one small decision would lead to this. A fake relationship--designed to solve her problems and mine--turned real. An earth shattering love torn apart by the very forces that led to its conception. Forces that turned me into the source of our destruction. There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do for Mallory Kent, including break her heart to save her soul.
