Three years ago, Charlotte Jameson walked away from a love that broke her heart-and took a secret with her: she was pregnant. Now, at a friend's wedding, her past collides with the present when she sees Ethan Hayes again... and he sees her daughter. A daughter with his eyes. Ethan wants answers. Charlotte wants to protect the life she's built. But the truth won't stay buried-and as Ethan discovers the child he never knew he had, both must confront old wounds, shattered trust, and the fragile hope of starting over. Can two people who lost everything find their way back to each other-and build something stronger from the ruins? A heartwarming second-chance romance about forgiveness, healing, and the kind of love that grows deeper when it's tested by time.

"Xander how did you know where I am, no wait scratch that why are you here instead of with your soon to be wife?" Ignoring her question I threw the papers at her, "What's this?" She glance at it, "Can't you read, it's our divorce papers?" "I know what it is but..." I stepped forward to her while she stepped backwards, she was now trapped between me and the wall. She had no where to go, I could feel her breast against my chest as they rise and fall, my hands placed on the side of her head against the flat surface not allowing her to escape. "I'm not divorcing you. Not now not ever." "Oh, really you don't have a say in that matter. Or would you like me to sue you for adultery. Save your reputation while you still can." She spat. I took a sniff, she smelt like vanilla, it was all over her, I can't wait to hold her once again. "I know what you must be thinking, and what ever it is stop thinking it. I did not sleep with her." "Oh really you could've fooled me with all that breathing and moaning, I'm not stupid. So why don't you sign the damn papers so we both can move on with our lives." "No way in hell I'm moving on without you. And I will never let you move on. Divorce or not you are mine and no one else." "Ha!" She chuckled, "I'm no one's property." "On the contrary If I have to, I will tattoo my name on your fuckable ass." She stared at me cold hard. "Tsk tsk tsk Ally, you must know baby girl you...are....it....for...me..." I breathe hard in her ear causing her to shiver. "Sorry but I don't want to stay married to a cheater." * Warning strong sexual mature language, not for kids under 18....warning xxxxx warning xxxxx

But when you're the star player of the hockey team, your father is one of the richest men in the country, and you have the looks of a tortured fallen angel, not many people seem to care. He certainly doesn't, not when he's too busy riding around with a visible chip on his shoulder. And boy, are they nice shoulders. *~*~* Sophie Pritchett craves normalcy after a lifetime of self-imposed isolation. With her dad's support and her therapist's gentle encouragement, she finally feels ready to step out into the world - or at least into a shared off-campus apartment with a few strangers. Tentatively, of course. Totally doable, right? Only it's not that easy. The girls aren't for the faint-hearted, and that's exactly what Sophie is. Her struggles with personal boundaries and social settings make it more than obvious that she's weird - and that's not including her strange obsession. When the hockey team starts volunteering at the hospital where Sophie teaches art therapy, she suddenly has the perfect excuse to feed that obsession - one that just happens to have Conrad Taylor written all over it. But when an unlikely friendship begins to form between Sophie, Conrad, and Casey - a witty little boy who's been dealt an unfair hand in life - Sophie learns there's a lot more hidden beneath the rude, sarcastic, and cold exterior of Conrad. Maybe he's just a broken little boy with a heart that feels too much. *~*~* Grumpy/Sunshine - Bad boy/Good girl - hates everyone except her Romance with a Brooke Bennett spin on it😜 Book 2 in the Campus Kings Series, but can be read as a STAND-ALONE.
