What do you do when the one that got away comes back?
Carter
I thought I was doing right by those Emilia and I both love when I let her go. So why has not a single thing in my life felt right since she left? Emilia is back now, and I'm ready to fight like hell for her. But how do I convince Emilia to give me another chance when she keeps going out of her way to avoid me?
Emilia
It's been years since I've been back in Woodstock. Had it been up to me, I'd never have come back at all. I don't want to be here - I don't want to be around Carter. So why does life keep pushing me back to him?
Author's Note: The Ruins Of Us is the final book in the Mayhem trilogy that followed Emilia Parker and Carter Clarke through high school, college and adulthood. Emilia and Carter will definitely have their well-deserved HEA in this book, and this will conclude their story.
