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

I'm trying not to think about the fact that the woman who got away is now sitting in my living room, wearing my ring, and fixing to take my last name. She has an appointment on Monday at the social security office. Never before have I ever had someone who was going to count on me for anything. It's a type of responsibility I never saw myself having, but I guess my grandfather had other ideas. 


Reaching in, I turn the knob on the shower and wait for it to warm up. This might be the best shower I've ever taken. Although I tend to do physical work every day, I'm exhausted tonight. It's more than likely because I've been aware of Daisy all day. Every time we got close to one another, I could smell her body wash or shampoo, or I'd feel her around. It's been enough to drive me crazy, and not in a good way.
