In The Light of Sin by Juniper Nyx

He noticed my fake smiles.

He watched me as I fell apart.

The spark between us should’ve been enough.

Sarge, the faceless man, protects me in a way I’ve never experienced before. But I’ve made mistakes. Unforgivable mistakes that hurt the people I loved the most. Time and time again, I try to atone for my sins by giving pieces of myself away—until there is nothing left.

Sarge can see me. The real me. He isn’t disgusted by my past, instead he makes it his mission to mend the fragments of my soul. This amazing man, who hides his scarred body from the world, is the only one who can understand my struggle. But he has demons in his past that force him to push me away, igniting consequences we never saw coming.

He was trying to save me, but it might be too late.

My fate was his damnation.

But he chose me anyway.

Now we’ll both burn in the flames.
