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

"Are you even listening to what I'm saying?" Jasper asks, waving a hand in front of my face.


He, Barrett, and I are working out. It's our Saturday morning routine. Since we were teenagers on the football team, we've worked out every Saturday morning. I try to ignore him, focusing on breathing as I push the weight toward the ceiling. 


"I'm listening to you. Just because I'm not gossiping doesn't mean I'm not listening."


Barrett gives him a grin. "He had a date last night, he stayed up too late to listen to you. You know Abel likes to go to bed at his normal time. He's an eighty-year-old woman in a twenty-year-old man's body."


"Haha," I fake laugh. "I like routine, and you know that."
