Holding Aces
by Nikki Groom
They say that time heals all wounds.But mine are set in so deeply, they’ve taken on a life of their own, lurking in the shadows at every turn and haunting my thoughts. The girl I once was has been replaced by a stranger.I don’t even know who I am anymore. I run.And I hide.Pretending to be someone I’m not… Until I meet Denham King.My burst of color in an otherwise grey world.And for the first time in my life, I find myself running towards someone instead of running away. But fate can be cruel,and I can’t escape my past.Can I?
