Almost Ruined – Abby Millsaps (1)

“That’s not what I meant, mon ange.” He’s angry, yet the term of endearment calms my nerves. Leaning closer, he nudges his nose against mine. “Why did you go to that party last night? Why did you take whatever you took?” Oh. That. This line of questioning makes more sense. I blink slowly, the shame creeping back in. Again, I stick with the straightforward truth.

It feels like the only real path forward, and my only hope of working through the mess I’ve created. Opening my eyes, I peek up through my lashes and catch my bottom lip between my teeth. “I wanted to forget.” Ty presses his thumb to my lip, releasing it, then softly, almost in slow motion, leans forward and kisses me. It’s a quick, barely there peck. But it inspires an eruption of butterflies in my belly, each one frantically fluttering its wing and stoking an intense, unwarranted sense of hope inside me.

“Keep talking,” he encourages. “What did you want to forget?” “All of it. All of you.” The butterflies settle, the sensation replaced by a dull ache in my chest. “That night in the locker room after your first game. All those nights in my dorm. The dinner with the staff from the Galaxy. Our fight afterward. All the times I pushed Mercer and Noah away. All the choices I made, and the ways I attempted to navigate this. Everything I did to contribute to you getting hurt in the barn.”

It doesn’t surprise me that I fell back on my old vices. Partying has always been my favorite way to cope. Ty just doesn’t know that side of me. Sometimes I wish I didn’t know that side of me either. My less-than-healthy coping mechanisms are really fucking stupid. Deep down, I think that’s why I revel in them. I’m human.

Tytus Epilogue: Tytus Epilogue: Noah Afterword Acknowledgments Also By Abby Millsaps About The Author 1kitap1.com/en To the readers who read this series as it was released and endured the most brutal cliffhangers I’ve ever written.

Sorry about Chapter 1. This one is for you. 1kitap1.com/en Blurb Mutual destruction makes way for hope and healing in Almost Ruined, the third and final book in the new dark, why choose, college hockey romance series from bestselling author Abby Millsaps. I told Mercer I’d never forgive him, and I meant every word of that promise. He hurt Tytus in the most awful, deleterious way while Noah just stood by and let it happen.

All three men in my life have contributed to the toxic, unnecessary agony of our collective heartache, but I’m the one who brought them together. This is all my fault. Everything is ruined, and I have no one to blame but myself. I almost captured that once-in-a-lifetime kind of love, and I was lucky enough to experience it three times over.

But almost has never been enough. I’ll miss Mercer’s bold, dominant attentiveness just as much as I’ll yearn for Noah’s sweet, gentle brand of care. I’ll spend the rest of my life craving Ty’s intense possessiveness. It all ends now. I refuse to choose between them, so I’m opting out entirely.
