SHELTERED CONNECTIONS #4

Drawn in By You

One has endured a life of loneliness.
The other is content in his solitude.
Can the draw of epic love intertwine their lives?

Travis


When my grandfather died, I was swallowed by the system. Depression set in at a young age as I was bounced from foster home to youth shelter. For twelve years since, I’ve battled with my mental health issues, refusing to reveal to anyone how bad things truly are.

I see my friends, happy with their partners, and I fear the dark clouds surrounding my heart will never allow me that kind of bond. When I meet Dylan, I feel a connection to him that defies our age-gap. He sees me breakdown and offers simply to hold me. For the first time in my life I see hope for my future… in him.

Dylan


Since my divorce, I threw myself into raising my daughter. She was my light and joy. Between parenting and opening a brewery, single life seemed the best choice.

But my weakness is helping people.

Sure, Travis is cute and charming. Yet it is his need for a connection that makes me want to wrap him in my arms and never let go. The more I learn about him, the more I want him to stay with me forever.

I’m falling for him in a big way, and he doesn’t realize he’s worth the effort.
