Half Full

Contemporary NA

Sometimes making the split second decisions are fruitful and give you the best outcome and that’s the best ones.

But what if you made a split second decision and it changed all your life.

Not in the best kind of way.

What if you had to live with regrets of that one night ?

What if that one night changed who you were and made you someone different?

What if that night made you look different?

One decision.

One push of the gas pedal.

...Everything changes...

A Second Chance

Paranormal NA

Derek:

Life isn't all sunshine and love like they tell you when you are a child. Life is about pain, especially mine. I live mine with a daily reminder of the fact that I didn't fight for the woman I love... I didn't go after her when I wanted to.

My heart is wrecked, my chest in a vice, and yet I am somehow supposed to keep going, to live with it...

So day after day, I live with it, until Annabelle walks back into my life, and she is as beautiful as I remember.

Annabelle:

Free is how I have lived since I left Fetterman.

I try my best to ignore the pain of my past, but my mind always turns back to him and all the questions I have. I am stubborn, I'm well aware of that, and I've never been able to bring myself to go back there until now.

The man who is supposed to be my father is ill and I have business to do with him.

I don't expect to see him, Derek.

I don't expect him to be even more handsome than ever... angrier than ever.

I don't know what I expect, and I certainly don't expect a second chance…

Parker:

Returning Home

Contemporary NA

"You don’t meet the love of your life when you’re just a kid.

Samantha

I lost count of the times I was told to move on. To get over the boy who stole a piece of my heart and kept it with him long after he unexpectedly left town. You can’t force someone to love you and it’s impossible to love enough for two, but I tried.

My life moved forward. My heartache slowly lessened. My reasons for living evolved but my heart never forgot. That’s why when Luke Runyan finally returned home, he turned my life upside down.

Luke

My world revolved around her. I would do anything to make my girl happy, that included setting her free.

Without my permission, life marched on but when I closed my eyes at night, she was always the first to greet me. I should have known that returning home would wreak havoc on my life and I should have known even one glance in her direction would make leaving without her a second time practically impossible.

Until her...

Brought together by fate, or perhaps—more simply—the hearts beating within their chests, the two form an unexpected bond, one that has them asking: can two hearts be destined only to beat for each other?
