Absolution Darren Birks

To Ratchet fire wipes everything clean, but the fire he feels for Ricca will either leave him fully engulfed or burned to ash. You can't outrun your past, a mistake I learned the hard way. Stripped of the last piece of my innocence in the middle of the Californian desert, I waited for death. Then he appeared. My vengeful angel. He's everything I'm not. He's everything I want. He's everything I can never have. I will not let my past define me. Abandoned by my mother as a child, I would be dead if it weren't for Jagger. He took me into the Heaven's Rejects and saved my life. Now I want to save hers. The superficial cuts and bruises on her delicate skin, don't compare to the pain lurking in her heart. The pain I want to save her from. Somehow, I will find a way to get through to her. Come hell or high water, she will be mine.******CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE*******
