Tangled Hearts | Agent Whiskey

Jack had been here before.

Not this exact kitchen table strewn with mood boards, but this moment- wedding plans. He'd had the wife, the vows, the glimmer of a future wrapped up in the swell of a baby bump. And then he'd lost it all. An overdose had taken her from him like a thief in the night, no amount of rage, whiskey, or vengeance missions could bring her back. Something vital had broken that day. Something he never imagined could be repaired.

Then he met Sofia.

Sofia Kook is an 29 year old from Chicago, she is Korean but moved to America to do Culinary school. Which she graduated and is now a chef. Fulfilling her dreams and succeeding them.

God, she was everything he hadn't dared hope for. Kind, with a sweetness that seemed to sneak up on people, but fierce when it mattered. That fire in her eyes? That's what made his chest ache with something that wasn't quite pain. She didn't let him get away with his usual charm, didn't let his drawl soften the weight of his baggage. She looked at him like he wasn't broken.
