Shatter

<p>They always tell you to trust your instincts-that little voice in your head that screams at you to run the other way when you see a man bleeding in the middle of a storm. But me? I slammed on the brakes. He was dangerous. I knew that before he opened his mouth before I saw the blood dripping onto the rain-soaked asphalt. And still I rolled down the window. Need some help? I said like an idiot. And just like that I was pulled into a world of shadows and secrets that make my cozy predictable life look like a postcard. Now I'm stuck with Elias-a man with more layers than I'll ever peel back and a past that's not just knocking on the door; it's about to blow it off its hinges. I don't trust him but I can't leave him either because somehow in this tangled mess of stormy nights and silent gazes I've realized one terrifying truth: the only thing more dangerous than Elias's enemies might be trusting him. But here I am risking it all to uncover the truth and wondering if I'll even survive the fallout.</p>
