I couldn’t for the life of me understand why people with so much money would spend it on such a depressing house. She failed to mention it belonged to the man with the toughest heart in the world. “You know this is the toughest floor in the world?” That first time, Mama had elbowed my ribs. That day, I stood rooted in place on the same ironwood flooring that never creaked. I’d only been inside the mansion once before, when my family first came to Todos Santos. I was even stupid enough to think he’d forgotten I ever existed.īut when he came back, he hit harder than I ever thought possible. I didn’t believe her until I met Baron Spencer and he became my nightmare. That weird thing that bubbles in your chest? Same. My grandmama once told me that love and hate are the same feelings experienced under different circumstances.
