Sisi He broke my heart and left me drowning in the wreckage.
Carrick once held my heart in his hands—then he shattered it. Now, marrying him is the only way to save my life, but it doesn’t erase the past. The betrayal still lingers, the scars still ache, and no matter how much he swears he’s changed, I can’t forget what he did. But the more time we spend together, the more I see glimpses of the man I once loved. However, that all changes when tragedy invades the family and I no longer recognize the man standing in front of me.
Carrick I destroyed us, and I’ve been paying for it ever since.
Guilt is a relentless shadow, a weight I carry every second of every day. I pushed Sisi away, knowing I would break her, and I did. Now, I have one last chance to make things right, and I’ll crawl through hell if that’s what it takes to earn her trust again. But love isn’t enough when you’re haunted by words you never got to say. And when the loss of someone I love strikes, I realize I might not deserve forgiveness—because some mistakes are unforgivable.
The Viper is the second book of the Emerald Kings Series. It’s a new adult book with a dual POV, forced marriage, a second chance, and a love triangle. The triggers in this book are sex, profanity, murder, the death of a sibling, and cheating (self-sabotage and no sex takes place). This book can be read as a standalone, but it is recommended to be read in order.
