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 really shouldn't be here. I have so much work to do, they still haven't fixed my window, but when I saw Alexis earlier, she mentioned she'd be bartending. She also mentioned that she thought Barrett would be here too. I need a drink, and that's what I had told Alexis, but there's another reason I showed up here tonight. 


Only to myself will I admit I came here because I wanted to see him, and when I walk in, I remember why.


Back when we'd first started talking to one another, and dating, he'd mentioned how much he loved dancing. Like I hadn't noticed, I'd deadpanned and rolled my eyes. Every night when we were at the bar, I'd sit in a chair next to the other girls and watch him swing his hips. We'd talk about how hot he was, how confident he moved on the dance floor. 


"Is that Barrett?" Kara asks as she comes to a stop next to me, almost running into my back.
