I’m old enough to be her father, and a life-long confirmed bachelor, but after one night together, all that is about to change. 

Boone Wilson

Instead of building my forever with a conventional family, I’ve dedicated my life to being the best father I can to the son I had way too early in life. Now that he’s grown, I’m giving all I can to my job. I make a construction site run smoothly, and can build anything with a couple pieces of wood and my imagination.

My world is small and calm. That’s how I like it. Until Alexis Monroe barrels her way into my peaceful existence and turns my world upside down.

The Broken Falls Series

"Hey Mom," I answer my cell, holding it between my shoulder and cheek. She always calls at the worst times. Like right now? I have a sink full of dishes to wash, and I am up to my elbows in it.  


Her voice is low and I'm having a hard time hearing her. It won't help for me to ask her to speak up, she fully believes women should be seen and not heard. "What's going on?" 


"Your dad and I watched your show last night." 


I roll my eyes. I took the food truck downtown for a few hours and live streamed. "It's not a show," I remind her. "It's just what's happening at the moment." 


"You should really be more careful. Some of those people looked drunk."
