Book 7 in the It just Happened Series. (Can be a stand alone but to better understand it read Never Say Never.)
Love is supposed to be great and for awhile it was, until it wasn't. I had it all! The perfect husband, well for the most part. Everyone...
How does this keep happening to me? One minute everything is going great and the next everything is out of my control. If I could go back in time, I would tell Mrs. Jensen to fuck off! The devastating look that was on my angel's face, it broke me. A week has passed and now that the project is almost done, I will be gone soon, and she will not even talk to me. Not that I blame her, it looked bad.

"Everything is going according to plan, Johnny boy." If I didn't consider Chuck as a friend and not just a foreman than I would slap him on the back of the head. "We might even be done ahead of schedule." The smile on my face disappears. This means less time with Katrina before I need to go back to our main office. "You really are into this girl." I glare as he laughs and pats my shoulder. "Meeting is in five and Mrs. Jensen will be there as well. Fair warning."
"Just what I fucking need." I groan out as I head to the office inside the building now that was just print on paper not too long ago.
"Her investors are coming to look at the progress as well." Can someone shoot me now! All I want to do is snuggle up against my girl, well technically not yet, but soon. I'm just grateful she is giving me a chance. I can tell it is hard for her to open up and I hate that someone treated her badly. Walking into the room there she stands her eyes spot me. Never mind that she is married, I have seen that look from woman all too well. "Good Luck." Then Chuck leaves as I threaten him in many different ways in my mind.
"Mrs. Jensen."
"How many times do I need to tell you to call me Alanna." Yeah, not going to happen.
"Shall we." I point to the seats and get down to business. I look at my watch and realize that time needs to hurry the fuck up. Pushing papers to her on adjustments to what she wanted to be replaced and some hiccups that came along the way. "So, as you see here is the new charge for our services. My lawyer looked them over." Thank God for Jaxon's mom taking me on retainer, she has helped my business tremendously. "Have your lawyer look over it and let me know if there are any discrepancies."
Waving her hand dismissively as she stands up and puts the paper in her bag. "Thank you, Johnny." When I give her a look she clears her throat. "I mean Mr. Meyers. Now let's walk the investors through everything." Mentally I groan because I just want to be done with everything, and we just have a few more things to do and we are done. These boring. stuck up snobs are irking my last nerve. Can I choke a bitch? Because I really want to. "Gentleman, that is everything and I want to thank Mr. Meyers and his crew so much for everything." Yada, yada yada. Can we hurry the fuck up?!
Breathing a little easier as they all leave and now Alanna looks at me biting her lip. I see and Chuck and the boys and laugh as water gets dumped all over Chuck. "Johnny." My focus snaps back to Mrs. Jensen and then her lips are on mine. A shiver runs down my spine as I step away, but my heart stops when I see her. No! My angel turns on her heels. "Johnny."
