Not only did I have to go to Germany to fix a cock up made by one of my top execs—ex-execs now—but I’d been trying to keep my grasping ex-wife away from my family. The woman is a greedy, lazy alcoholic, who sees nothing wrong with hitting me up for money despite the massiv...
I’d never given much thought to my lone wolf status before, thanks to my hectic life and the fact that I had no time to nurture a friendship with another woman—or anybody, for that matter. Now I hate it because I have no one to talk to about what’s happening between me and...
You can’t honestly mean…he’s an asshole, Hannah!” “Come on, Chris, please try to understand. I really like him.” It’s seven on a Friday night, and I’m an hour away from what I now think of as the gallows date. I literally feel as if I’m walking to m...
I don’t use those things, mostly because I am terrified of breaking myself, but I’ve just had to spend two hours having a crotch meltdown while a man so sexy as to fry my lips stroked my shoulder and kept looking at me like he wanted to rip my clothes off. I’m not familiar...
I’ve spent the last years raising three men and building myself and my business into something more than formidable but this, this is not something I know how to fix. It’s been bloody weeks since the day imp told her father to screw off, well, not in so many words but that...
Viv yells before I’ve cleared the threshold of Madge’s, her twinkling eyes accusing me as I shuffle my way to the table and fall down with a plop. How they even know this just by looking at me is not worth thinking about, so I just ignore the creepiness of it all and attac...
I always feel this way when I think about Dad and his unreasonable expectations. Too bad I’m not always capable of staying without an appetite, hence my big butt. “Look, Devon, give me a goddamned break, okay? My dad’s like a Nazi when it comes to what he expects. You know...
It’s hell because I’ve been dying to talk to her since that night in the kitchen, but the bloody woman scampers off and avoids me at every turn. She wants nothing to do with me, and who can blame her. I can’t, because while I’m curious about what she’d been about to say, I...
Not a bloody clue. That child—oh God, my child— is sleeping upstairs right this minute, unaware of the chaos that her arrival is causing. It sounds horrible, but I sort of resent the timing. Why now, when I’ve just managed to get things the way I want them, when Ash has fi...
I cringe and shudder when the sound of Tatiana’s puking hits my ears, shrugging and dropping the box of saltines back on the counter. The poor girl has been retching for a good three minutes since I rolled out of bed and heard her dash for the bathroom. My bladder is fit t...
The therapist had been honest to the point of pain and laid it all out for me. Ben needed a shit load of help, as well as more stability than I could currently offer him. I want to cry just knowing that I’ve messed things up this badly with him, but most of all I wanna fin...
I’ve gone into war-torn countries and dodged bullets to get to meetings while rebel forces unleashed hell around us. I’m by no means a squeamish man, but when I got the call from Brick that Hensley had tracked the women and that they were both being airlifted to the hospit...
We’ve enjoyed a lovely dinner and some surprisingly good conversation. This surprises me because I’d assumed we wouldn’t have much in common besides the ad campaign. How wrong I was. Gregory Lucas and I share quite a few things in common. We both like ‘eighties power balla...
“Well?” he asked. “Panties,” I said, holding my hand out. “Now.” “Are you sure you want me to give you your panties back, right here, where everyone can see?” he asked, smiling at me. “You’re very kinky.” “Lower the blinds,” ...
He prompts, lightly tugging at the lock of hair he’s still fiddling with. “Liv read something on Gabe’s computer that sorta points to you going hard and heavy on Brian and his friends. Did you find out…about those photos and go on a vendetta against them?” I ask quietly, f...
But I’m not giving in to the paranoia my husband seems to thrive on—yeah, I know the guy got himself snipped and isn’t telling me, since I’m pretty well acquainted with his dick, and he’s definitely had something done. I’m not as mad at him as I should be because the reaso...
After that truly raw phone conversation with the Doc, I forced myself to get in the car and come to Chase’s office. I knew that if I didn’t, I would spend another night chewing myself to death about the doubt and insecurity I feel. And once that insecurity takes hold, it w...
I hiss, eyeing the newly fitted and designed dress critically. Lena had sent the original seamstress packing and had attacked Nana’s dress herself, redesigning and sewing till I am left with a truly beautiful creation of lace and silk that makes me teary. ...
For God’s sake, stop that.” I giggle at that groggy growl and keep licking at his erection, enjoying my first ever undirected exploration of his cock. When he snarls a curse and goes to pull me away, I give out a growl of my own and clamp down hard, using my teeth as a war...
Vincent mutters at me, holding my eyes for all of a second before glancing back down in spellbound adoration. “I won’t have you suffering like that again.” “Whatever you say, babe,” I laugh tiredly, feeling blissed out and euphoric as I watch my husband cradle our son in h...
I’d stressed about this the entire night, and after pacing my room till five in the morning I’d come to one conclusion, things will happen as they will. With that in mind, I’d stocked my fridge and moved Jude into my place for the next two weeks. (She needs her shows, and ...
