Say A Prayer — S.J. Sawyer

Say A Prayer is the fourth novella in the Like A Lady serial. It cannot be read as a standalone.

It hurts. God, does it ever hurt. Having your heart ripped from its home in your chest, metaphorically or literally, isn't a fun thing. No, it's gruesome, and once in a lifetime was more than enough. Twice. Twice is almost unbearable. I'll make it, though. I'm strong enough to persevere, to move on, and I will because I know that there's no other option. I can't stop living. I won't stop living. ~Red

One step. Two. I'll take it a day at a time and hope to hell the pain goes away. The thing is, I know it won't. It just keeps getting stronger because without her love, I'm lost. And it sucks. This feeling, the loss, it's getting worse, but what am I supposed to do about it? She won't listen to me. Nothing I say has swayed her, not a bit. Why can't she see I'm miserable without her? ~Mason
