The Fault in Forever
USA Today bestselling author Claudia Burgoa brings you an angst-filled, emotional second-chance romance packed with heartache, longing, and an impossible love triangle.
I fell in love with a boy who became my everything.
Justin Stone was my first love. I thought I’d grow old with him.
We had a future filled with promises, until one fateful night.
One tragic accident, and just like that, he slipped into a coma.
For years, I clung to hope; holding on to every ‘what if.’
But life doesn’t stand still. Eventually, I had to learn how to live again.
Grief clung to me like a second skin when Haydn Wesford came into my life.
He’s a professional hockey goalie with a natural instinct to protect.
He showed up just when I needed someone the most.
Loving Haydn was like taking my first real breath in years.
He made me laugh when I thought I’d forgotten how and made me believe in second chances.
Just as Haydn and I were about to build a life of our own, everything came crashing down. Justin woke up.
I can’t abandon him.
Haydn, being the man he is, agrees to help bring Justin home and get him back on his feet.
But as days turn into weeks, feelings I thought were buried begin to stir.
I remember the promises Justin and I made, the future we dreamed up together.
Now I’m standing at a crossroads—caught between the man who is my past and the one who would be my future. I’m torn in two.
Two hearts. Two futures. And only one choice.
How do you let go of your first love when he’s standing right in front of you? How do you choose the man you need… without breaking the heart of the one you can’t seem to let go of?
The fault in forever is that sometimes love isn’t enough. And now, I have to decide who I am—and who I can’t live without—before I lose them both.
