“…I live for you. I breathe for you. I will die for you. It has always been you.” No one has ever made Rosie LeBlanc feel more alive than the man who reminds her she’s running out of time.
Dean Cole — her forbidden temptation, her sister’s ex, the one she should never touch. He’s passion wrapped in recklessness, danger draped in devotion — the one thing she can’t have and the only thing she’s ever wanted. Rosie has lived her life by the hourglass. Cystic fibrosis is her shadow — sometimes subdued, sometimes suffocating. She knows she won’t get forever.
So why does she want him anyway? Eleven years later, Dean storms back into her world with his demons and his promises, swearing to love her through every breath and break her walls if he has to. He wants to be her salvation. Her knight. Her last first love. But Rosie knows better than anyone — fairytales don’t last forever. Sometimes, love isn’t the cure. It’s the reason your heart stops beating.
