Whatever It Takes by Elizabeth Perry

He put me through hell…
And I called it love.
I knew that it was too good to be true, and when Eric Wayne promised me the world?
I should have run fast in the other direction.
Instead of falling for every word…
It should have been no surprise when he dropped me the moment that something better came along, yet when it happened?
He single-handedly crushed my heart into a million pieces
And he never even looked back.
I promised myself that I would never again open myself up to that kind of pain, and for the last six years?
I have kept my word.
I’ve moved on, and created a new life for myself, far away from him.
I never intended to ever have to see his face again.
But fate had other plans…
And the second that a chance encounter brings us back together?
Well, let’s just say, that it’s going to take everything that I have not to fall for him again.
He’s too damn hot to resist…

She was the one that got away…
I never meant to hurt Avery, but when I had her?
I was just a stupid kid.
She didn’t deserve the way that things ended, but at the time, I didn’t realize what I was losing.
But now I’m grown…and this man?
Realizes that she is the only woman that could ever own my heart.
I’ve achieved everything in my life that I’ve set my mind to so far, and the only thing missing is the beautiful woman by my side.
And only one woman will do.
Avery.
And when fate drops her back into my lap, she has no choice but to accept the help that I’m all too willing to offer
I’m certain that I will be able to win her back.
No matter how hard she tries to fight it, I’m going to make her see…
That I will do whatever it takes to make her mine.
