Would you risk it all for pleasure? 
Brandi and Gio were never meant to happen and should not have happened, but....one fateful night, an unexpected encounter, they both experienced fire they had never felt before, and for them, there was no turning back. 
His daughter's best friend to the woman in his bed. Giovanni will have a hard time accepting Brandi is no longer the little girl he once knew.

My Best Friend’s Father

I awake to the smell of smoke. I jump up from the bed. I have to save mom and dad. I run down the hallway, but the entrance to their wing is already in flames.

"Mom! Dad! Mom! Dad! Don’t leave me! Don’t leave me. Take me with you!!!" I cry out, but they don’t answer. I sob. I’m going to be alone. I don’t want to live like this. I don’t want to live with Uncle Theo. It’s better for me to die.

I stand and take slow steps towards the fire. Suddenly, I feel myself shaking, and when I open my eyes, Cole is holding me. I look at him, stunned, wondering why he’s here, but feeling overwhelmed, I ignore that and throw my hands around him and cry. This isn’t a dream. My parents are dead, and I might as well be all alone.

"Grandma is getting out tomorrow so that you can go home." Cole says as he comforts me. I exhale, feeling relieved as I bury my face in his chest. Grandma wasn’t my mother and father, but at least I wouldn’t be around Carmen and Colin.
