    About this ebook

    When the inescapable pain of the traumatic event sends her running, hiding, she worries that her life is ruined and she will never find love or understanding again. She leaves a path of destruction, blaming her best friends and vanishing without explanation. She resigns herself to a life of loneliness and simply getting by. She is fine with that. She makes her peace with that and knows that nothing can change it. Then, she meets Benny.

      1. As much as I may rack my brain, there are 15 minutes or so in the dark that I can’t account for and that I’ll never get back—15 minutes during which, I have to think, that creep’s hands were touching my body. It’s a weird thing to think about all
