Chapter One

Ella

In life, a happy ending is something you only find in chick flicks. Yet no matter how often we are left with disappointment and struggle, we still strive for our happily ever after.

Making love to Jonah felt like it could be my very own happy ending. A newfound energy was coursing through my veins. I felt like I had a fire burning inside me—a fire so bright, it was seeping through my pores and illuminating my path in life.

On cue, he opened his eyes and looked directly into mine. It was as if he knew exactly where I was long before he managed to lift his lazy lids. His post-coital smile was infectious.

My dreams never did you justice, Ella. The vibrancy in your beautiful eyes is simply breathtaking, Jonah whispered as he brushed a stray strand of hair from my face.

Are you still in pain? I asked. I had no idea how or why, but all the muscle pain and fatigue from my seizure the day before was completely gone. Settling back onto
