Within These Walls

Within these walls, he became my solace, my sanctuary and my strength.



I am not strong. I am just a survivor of circumstance.

Isn't that what we all do? Survive?



Each of us has our own set of circumstances to muddle through. Mine are just more...complicated.



Born with a severe heart defect, I've seen the inside of a hospital room more than my own bedroom.



I was drowning, a prisoner to the illness that owned me, until he appeared. He thinks he's blocked out the world with his tattoos and hard exterior, but I see the real Jude, the one he so desperately wants to forget.



But is he the answer to my prayers or will he break my already damaged heart forever?



My name is Lailah Buchanan, and this is our story of hope, redemption and sacrificing it all for the one you love.

Happily ever after.



That was what we were supposed to have.



Pudding cups, sandy toes and a lifetime of making each and every one of our dreams come true-that is the future I'd promised her.



I could see it in my dreams, hold it in my hands, but then I watched as all of our hopes and wishes suddenly slipped through my fingers like sand.



I thought the worst was behind us, but what if we'd just delayed the inevitable?



They say love can overcome any obstacle. But can it survive death?



The breathtaking love story of Lailah and Jude concludes in Beyond These Walls.
