Fallen Brook

They say every love story has a beginning. If that’s the case, then mine started when I was nine years old. Jayson, Ryder, and I grew up together. We were inseparable, bound by a friendship that felt unbreakable. They were my family, my constants—my forevers.

It’s been over a year since my world changed forever. After waking up thousands of miles from home, I was forced to start over, guided by scars I didn’t recognize. It hasn’t been easy, especially when life keeps pulling me toward a past I can’t fully grasp. Now, a twist of fate has brought me back, thrusting me into a world I don’t remember. At college, I run into Ryder—someone who swears he knew me before, someone whose eyes spark a connection I can’t explain. Then there’s Jayson, whose pain and anger cut through me like shards of a forgotten past.

They say the Fates weave our destinies, but mine must’ve been drunk when they picked up the thread. From the beginning, my heart was never mine alone, but tangled in a web spun by three unforgettable men. Jayson Jameson and Ryder Cutton—my childhood best friends and my first tastes of love. And then there was Fallon Montgomery, the man I once believed was the villain in my story. These three men marked me in ways I can’t erase and painted my heart in colors I never could have imagined. Loving them wasn’t a choice. It was a beautiful, tragic destiny carved into my soul.
