Pretty Lies

Description

I’ve given up on a lot of things in my life. Hope, relationships, and myself.
But worst of all, I gave up on my little girl.
Too fucked to deal with the responsibility of raising a child, I ran out on her when she was just a baby, leaving her and her mother to fend for themselves.
Over the years, I’ve made peace with that decision and learned to live with the devil that dances on my shoulder.
But then I get a text. From her. From my Audrey.
I should ignore it, but I don’t. I respond. Then texting leads to more, and soon enough, I’m opening doors that should’ve remained closed. I’ve got my eye on her now for all the wrong reasons and everything is once again fucked.
Because the way I want Audrey is sick. Dirty. Sinful.
Yet, when she begs me to let her tag along on a road trip to California, I can’t say no. Not while my mind says one thing and my body demands another.
The one woman I can never have.
My daughter.
