The closest he will ever come to happiness is when he's hurting her. Will she let him? A beautiful and twisted story of first love and innocence lost -- written when the author was just eighteen. Sphinxie and Cadence. Promised to each other in childhood. Drawn together again as teens. Sphinxie is sweet, compassionate, and plain. Cadence is brilliant, charismatic. Damaged. And diseased. When they were kids, he scarred her with a knife. Now, as his illness progresses, he becomes increasingly demanding. She wants to be loyal -- but fears for her life. Only the ultimate sacrifice will give this love an ending.

“Poignant, beautiful, scary, haunting, bittersweet, and so addicting:
Breaking Butterflies has marked me, left me with something I don’t think
I will forget, ever. I’ve never, not once, felt what I felt while
reading it. It shocked me, because not only was it something I’ve never
read about before, but it wasn’t at all what I thought it would be. It
was a hundred percent better.”
