I’m a bad man, all muscle, gristle, steel, and leather.
I get what I want. And that’s why I got her. Torrie. She was just supposed to be a one night thing.
I never expected her to take hold of my heart... and squeeze. I never expected her to look into my soul... and steal it.
Women? They come and then I go... it’s a tidy arrangement that I like... and they don’t. I always knew I’d never get shackled down by a ring or a kid.
But Torrie? She’s got me thinking about family. About my future. About... love. Not just loving her body, and every damn inch of it. But loving her for who she is. Strong, sassy... smarter than I’ll ever be.
My queen... even if she doesn’t know it.
There’s just one problem. She’s got secrets... and so have I. Our pasts... they intertwine... in a bad way.
Maybe we’re not meant to be. Maybe we’re not fated. Maybe we were just meant to hook up and break up.
But the thing is... I put my baby inside of her.
So now I’m going to make sure she stays mine.
Forever.
