 ( prologue )
A HEART FULL OF WOE.

Let's get one thing straight. This isn't a love story. It used to be, but looking back on the events of this tale I'm about to tell you from a new perspective has led me to the decision that it is in fact, not a love story.

Once upon a time it could have been a love story, but that possibility was washed away. And there is no fault to anyone who leads in this story, a lot of things happened that weren't anyone's fault. Well, it was someone's fault. But not who you'd expect, dear reader.

So I think you should know, any romance found within this tale is of a time in my life that I usually try to forget. The time where I went against my better judgement and lost. This isn't a story about happy endings. It isn't one where the boy gets the girl and they all live happily ever after.

Though, you should expect that. A story that includes the Wednesday Addams should never be expected to be full of happiness and joy. She'd never allow it.

But I'm getting side tracked. I wanted to let you all know what you're getting in for. This is the story of my life. One in which I still don't know if I was happy to lead. It is also the tale of the first boy I ever truly loved. Isn't that a pity.

So, now that we've got that covered... let me tell you one last thing. This is the story of a girl who gets caught up with a boy. The tale of what happens when a monsters disguise becomes too good. A story where bad things happen to good people and the real monster is never who you'd suspect.

This is the story of Evie Ashford. This is the story of heartbreak. And this is the story to finally put all the rumors to rest about what really happened all those years ago.

Now, dear reader, I hope you're ready because I sure wasn't.

Signed,
Evie Ashford.

AUTHORS NOTE!
I'm so excited for this!!! I want to quickly mention that no fault is going to be thrown onto the character of tyler by me (in a judgmental or harsh way). This is a character who was found in a very bad time and groomed into something evil and I plan to dive into that, so if that isn't up your alley please don't continue on.

This book is not meant to bring trauma to any survivors of grooming, but rather shed light on how often we forget dynamics that occur in media when judging characters. These people aren't real but these things happen to real people and there is no light that can possibly be made of that.

This is the story or Evie Ashford and Tyler Galpin and it is the story of how sometimes heartbreak is the best option. If you decide to continue, I appreciate you and hope you interact through comments, votes, etc. I want this book to be a place everyone can talk about their views on this world that was created and the characters inside of it.

And always know I am willing to talk to anyone who just needs someone who will listen. Thank you for reading this, and enjoy the story.
