Winning Ruby Heart (2014)
“She stayed awake as they watched the interview about her assault, but she moved through the air in his apartment with the dogged determination of someone trying to trudge through waist-deep mud.

Once on the bed, Micah lowered his shoulder and lifted his head so he could kiss Ruby softly on her lips before she tucked herself into the crook of his arm. The bed creaked as she rolled over onto her side, throwing her arm around him and shifting it to find her most comfortable spot.
