Laramie Briscoe

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

The house is quiet when I wake up the next morning. Weston and I barely talked after we got back from the pharmacy, and he had no questions about what I picked up. Not that I really wanted to discuss it anyway, but him not even asking kind of hurts worse. I want him to be worried about me, to wonder why I needed to go to a pharmacy. In my own way, I was hoping it would open up an avenue of communication. 


"Oh, Melanie," I sigh to myself, "what the fuck are you gonna do?"


I've never actually known since I left. I've been running for far too long. From myself, from my health issues, from my fears, and the control of my parents. When I left Weston, it was for a reason, and then after building a life in Montana, I had to leave there, too. All because of my parents. Hell, both instances were because of them. In the end, I'm just not even sure who I am right now, much less where I'm going or where I came from.
