It Was Always Going to End This Way

By Ashlynn Heather Poulsen

Delilah never thought she'd let herself fall in love-let alone with a psychopath-and certainly never imagined being betrayed in the worst way imaginable. But she won't realize the mistakes she's made until it's too late . . .

Delilah is a simple girl: she loves reading, her family, and the beauty of a sunset. To protect herself from heartbreak, she has long vowed never to fully trust another person. But when Bodhi, a handsome stranger, stumbles into her life and fits into the parts of herself she guards so closely, her convictions slowly crumble-and once she caves to the temptation, she discovers she's never felt freer.

But as Delilah begins to uncover all the half-truths, all the lies, she wonders if she should have listened to her gut all along.

Set in two timelines, before and after, we watch as Delilah falls in love, falls apart, and ultimately falls into the clutches of her captor. We see how she was always going to end up as something for a monster to use, not someone to love. How with her and him, it was always going to end this way.
