“I’ll marry anyone who will take me!” Hazel declared loudly. “I don’t need love!”

“Get down!” Will hissed. “You don’t know what kind of people are lurking around in here! Talking like that might get you killed!”

Hazel Dixon thought she was putting her troubled past behind her. But when the person she thought she trusted most betrays her, she loses her head and proposes to an entire bar full of strangers. 

Enter Will Sheffield, a charming stranger who decides to take her up on her offer to save her from herself. 

He spoils her rotten without expecting anything in return and Hazel's confusion only grows. She doesn't know why he is acting this way. Or why he reminds her so much of the 'dangerous' childhood friend she thought was gone forever...

Hazel in the Demon's Den

Hazel thanked her husband again when she returned and found him admiring the partially completed painting.


"No problem," Will said casually. "It's coming along nicely. How long do you think you'll be out here?"


"I'm not sure. Possibly until lunch? I prefer using the real thing as a reference but I already took a picture in this lighting so I can finish it at home if necessary. Unfortunately, being out here for too long doesn't seem like it will work out."


She huffed in annoyance, wishing that Henry was born already. But that would cause a whole other set of changes to her usual routine. If she wanted to paint, she would have to do it when Will could watch the baby.


Hazel was worried about his ability to bond with Henry. Could she really trust her husband alone with an infant? She would never have another moment to herself if she couldn't though.
