The Secrets We Share by Cindy Dawson

We’ve emerged from the shadows, carrying secrets we’re ready to reveal.

Keira
The time for hiding in the shadows is over. I’m done running. It’s time to take back the life I once knew in New York, no matter the cost, no matter the risk. My dreams of having a family—of discovering where I came from—have been shattered by the cruel hand fate has dealt me. The family I was born into, but never knew? A twisted joke. But there’s a bond stronger than blood, stronger than anything the universe can throw at us. The bond of loyalty is stronger than the ties of birth, and the few I trust, the ones who have stood by me, will be the only reason we make it out alive. Together, we’ll fight for the future we deserve—even if it means facing down the darkness that wants to drag us into it’s depths.

Harkin
She’s everything to me. Keira is my heart, my reason, and I would tear apart the world to free us from the chaos our parents have have shackled around our necks. Being with her is like breathing—it’s effortless, natural, and yet, in this world of lies and deceit, nothing is ever as easy as it seems. Life has a sick way of ripping everything apart, of taking it all from you in an instant, and right now, we’re caught in its unforgiving grip. But as long as I have Keira by my side, I’ll keep fighting, no matter the cost. I’ll burn this world to the ground if that’s what it takes to save us.
