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

"What's wrong with you today? That's the third fork you've dropped." Gabby gives me a once-over, as if she's looking for what's causing me to be so clumsy.

"Do I look different to you?" I demand. We have an hour before the shop opens, and if this is the way I'm going to work today, I might as well head upstairs and go back to sleep.

"You seem like maybe you didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night. Other than that, not much looks different. Should it?"

I tilt my head back and wonder what I should tell Gabby. She's been my closest friend since I came to Broken Falls, and if there's anyone I trust, it's her. "Vaughn and I made out last night, and..." I glance around to make sure it's just us, that none of the interns have shown up. "He gave me an orgasm." My face is flaming. Burning red, and full of heat in a way I've never felt before. This in't like me to be so forward with someone, but I need to talk about this.
