Complete -----This story is PG-13. A quirk in the system updates it as Rated-R. --- A childhood friend needed a place to stay until he knew where he wanted to live. I offered him my spare room. What I didn't expect was that it would include me spending more time with her than my very own roommate. She's not my type. She's not for me. Then, why can I not keep her out of my head? She can't be with me, she can't be here, she deserves so much better, but I can't lose her. But, how do I tell my new roommate that the girl that has turned my world upside down is his little sister? Detective Robert Holden Daniels is conflicted by the woman he wants and the type of woman he thinks he needs. The battle that broils beneath his quiet brooding exterior has the potential to destroy two lives-his and the woman he loves.

Things never work out smoothly. *1st Place Winner in Romance for the Literally Lit Awards ❤️*

They say you don't know what you're missing if you've never had it to begin with. The Johnson sisters would beg to disagree on that one. They've spent the majority of their young lives being tossed around the foster care system like debris in the ocean, struggling to catch their breath, stuck in a current not knowing whether to swim up or down. When they finally get the chance at a family after living so long without one, it's not so easy letting those walls down and risking it all. Charlie and Lydia Tanner know what they're missing too, and that's a family to call their own. After struggling with infertility for the better part of the sixteen years they've been married, they've finally been approved as foster parents. They're ready to give these two girls their chance at a happily ever after, but we all know it's easier said than done, especially with a skewed system breathing down their backs. Follow them as they go through the ups and downs of parenthood and know this: family doesn't always mean blood, just like blood doesn't necessarily make a family. Cover by: MackieJay #Wattys2015
