Since Mac is dead, I told myself I’m taking all the bad memories back. I’m not going to fear the club or dread working at it. I want to fall in love with it again, and Carter plays a big part in that.
He smirks at me, then shoots his gaze to the left. “Look!”
I follow his outstretches finger and see a monarch butterfly fluttering a few feet away from us. The smile that seems to be a permanent fixture on my face grows. “It’s like when we were kids,” I squeal, standing from my spot on the ground.
“You know what that means?” I look at him and see his eyes narrow and his smirk turn more mischievous.
“What?”
“Run, Bunny.”
THE END
EPILOGUE
CARMEN
My chest rises and falls in rapid succession as I close the door behind me. Blood. So much blood.
“What have I gotten myself into?” I whisper out loud to the empty room and dead body at my feet.
I fish my phone from my purse with a shaky hand as tears blur my vision. Managing to type out “911,” I hit Send. If I can keep Lydia’s deepest, darkest secrets, it’s time for her to keep mine too.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Wow. What a ride this has been. This book took me over six months to write, so I hope the wait has been worth it.
First, I want to thank my husband, Justin. Thank you for pushing me and telling me it was time to step out of my comfort zone. I feel because of you, I finally found my voice. I love you.
Krista. Thanks for keeping my kids alive for months while I locked myself away and Justin worked. I can never say thank you enough for all you do. You’re the best sister ever. Even though I won’t hug you.
Sade. Bitch. I love you. Thanks for encouraging me and telling me to stop whining when things got hard. You’re the real MVP and I appreciate you more than words can say.
Kailee. This book is for you. I would have never finished if it wasn’t for your text messages telling me to go write. I’m happy I was able to help you find your love for reading again.
Brittney and Hanna. My girls. I love you both so much. Your feedback and excitement literally makes me melt. I couldn’t do this without all of your words of encouragement and kindness. I’m so lucky to have you both. Don’t ever leave me.
Brittany, my PA. I love you so much! From day one you’ve been there, making magic with me, and making sure I never forget the badass I am. I would seriously die without you. Thank you for encouraging me, keeping me in line, and running my life because I’m a dumpster fire and don’t know what I’m doing.
Sandra, my editor. You’ve quickly grown into such an amazing friend and I thank the universe everyday. I’m so glad to have someone as amazing as you in my corner.
And you; my readers. Thank you for supporting me and making it possible to pursue my dream daily. I appreciate every single one of you so, so much. Each of you will always have a small piece of my heart.
