Actually, I said hell no. But then I started thinking about the holes in my son’s shoes…the growl in his empty belly on the nights I couldn’t even afford ramen…and I started to wonder what would happen if I took the deal.

Falling in love with Ronan wasn’t part of the plan. Neither was falling pregnant with his baby. The worst part is he doesn’t even know yet. How do I tell him when I don’t know what he wants? One minute he’s into me, jealous, overprotective, the next minute he’s pushing me away. He’s so focused on his mafia. It’s one thing after another. I can’t shake the feeling that when it comes to Ronan, this baby and I will always come second.

I stepped up until she was ready and gladly handed the mantle back to her capable hands after I helped her forge an alliance with the Perez brothers. Now, I have one goal in life: to win back Evander Perez.

His obsession. His perfectly flawed flower. But that was years ago.
