The Big Mistake
by Lexie Ray
I’ve watched my friends pair off with their Prince Charmings, seeking out their happily ever afters together. When will it be my turn? It’s hard not to be jealous being the last single one of everyone. I feel like a princess in a tower, waiting for love to find me. But with my best friend Nick pursuing me romantically, and a mysterious stranger who becomes everything I’ve ever wanted in a man, I’m finding it harder and harder to figure out just where my happily ever after is. People aren’t who they seem. We all have secrets. But when Nick surprises us all with his true identity, it’s impossible to understand if he or anyone else can be trusted with something as fragile as my heart. Life isn’t a fairy tale, I’m learning from my mistakes. And sometimes there isn’t a happily ever after for everyone.
