For Zoey
Odell, the definition of family is her two best friends, Maya and Addy. So when
Maya makes the decision to leave her abusive husband, Zoey is only too happy to
lavish her with support and a temporary home. Unfortunately, taking in her best
friend also means seeing more of that no good do-gooder, Kellen
Bradley.
For Kellen,
the definition of family has just been shattered. After finding out that his
brother is an abusive monster, he can’t help but question himself and his
parents. The one thing he knows for certain is that he’ll do anything to take
care of his sister-in-law and her children. For them, he would walk into
gunfire, pass through the flames of hell…even go head-to-head with Zoey Odell.
Zoey has no
intention of letting him in, but Kellen is done taking her crap. Life has just
gotten real and he’s more than ready to shed his nice-guy image. When he
finally stands up to her, Zoey starts seeing him in a new light. As the
attraction turns mutual, she finds it more and more difficult to hide behind
her carefully formed walls. And Kellen is finding himself more and more driven
to tear those walls down.
He opened
his eyes and for the first time ever, there was fire in them. He stepped toward
her and pointed at her. “Here’s how it’s going to be. I’m going to visit my
sister and her kids whenever. The fuck. I want. And you’re going to keep your
goddamn mouth shut about how much you hate me, especially around those kids.
You got no right badmouthing me where they can hear. You understand all
that?”
She pressed
her lips together to keep from grinning. “Yeah, I understand.”
He stepped
back, the fire in his eyes replaced by stunned confusion. He blew out a breath
and rubbed the back of his neck. “I’m sorry to have to talk to you like that,
but you’ve left me no choice.”
She did
laugh, then. She couldn’t help herself. “What’s next, Kellen? Are you gonna
spank me and send me to bed?”
He actually
blushed.
She stopped
laughing and arched her brow. “Is that what you want, Kellen? To spank me?” She
was possessed of the desire to flirt. Like a warrior who’d finally met her
match on the field of battle, she found a kinship with her enemy. And in her
case, a sudden and exciting attraction.
Carter Ashby is a hardworking housewife and homeschool
