He was the perfect gentleman, and my parents adored him. In time, I learned to adore him too. I married him. He was my forever.
Until the day he hit me.
Five years went by with the speed of a ticking clock, counting down my life one painful second at a time.
Until Danny. Danny saw me. Danny was my hero.
Danny was the one I was supposed to be with. But now I’m broken, shattered into pieces too jagged to fit back together.Isn’t that what fate is? Puzzles fit together by an unseen hand to form a life worth living. So when fate makes a mistake, who fixes it?
Brandace Morrow is a full time mom of four, and currently stationed overseas with her sexy soldier. Her recent obsessions are Maroon 5, Luke Bryan, The Pretty Reckless, rum and coke, and reading, in no particular order. Despite being terribly awkward with social media, she's everywhere. Frequently subjecting the public to pictures of her minion's messes, and everything that is momdom in the Morrow house.
With water to my neck, I turn the faucet off and can hear Danny
splashing next door. “Are you done with your legs, too?” I ask him teasingly.
“Just finishing up the bikini area. Do you prefer a heart, or something
a little more exotic?” he shoots right back, making me giggle.
“What does bottle five say for you?”
“Let’s see.” I hear glass clinking together. “It says . . . place on
face for ten minutes. When dry, rinse off, and apply jar six. This is getting
kind of ridiculous. I’ve never had to do this shit before,” Danny says.
“We’ll see what we look like when we’re done. My skin feels so smooth.”
“Yeah, mine too. I’m a facial away from losing my man card. Oh wait,
that’s jar five. There it went, flying off to some well-deserving guy who’s
eating a raw steak and roping a steer down the street. I may have to move to
Mexico to get it back. How do you feel about matadors?”
I burst out laughing as I apply the goopy mess in my jar six to my face.
“You can restore your card later. I’m sure there will be food to shovel and
beer to belch.”
“You don’t get the man card credo. It’s an application process, Kinley.
After all of these products, it could be months before I’m worthy again,” he
explains.
“That’s terrible. I had no idea all it took was a few little jars.”
“Don’t underestimate the power of a good facial. I’m never living this
down . . . I think this is avocado.”
“Are you eating it? Danny!” I yell through my laughter.
“It’s good fats, Kinley. Remember? Anyway, it’s all your fault,” Danny
decides.
“How do you figure?”
“Well, I’m only in here to be close to you. This should show you how
committed I am,” Danny informs me.
“Thank you for sacrificing your manhood to show me you care. That means
a lot,” I joke.
I hear Danny sniff indignantly before he says, “As long as you value my
surrender, it’s all worth it.”
5 stars
Brandace seems to have a way of writing that just digs every emotion out of you whether you want to or not. Her characters are so fragile, strong, broken, fearless, hopeful and afraid. They represent the people that choose not to speak for themselves or they think they can't. Her books always make me think. That's always a good thing.
I can't imagine going through what Kinley did and feeling that she didn't have a choice until she met Danny. I was very happy that they found each other. Initially, their relationship is not easy in the slightest. But there is a light and hope and the strength of having someone beside you that is so beautifully written. The chemistry and playfulness that Danny brings to Kinsley's life is amazing to read about. Danny breathed new life into Kinsley and gave her a reason to hope, to fight for and to want a better life for herself. I couldn't put it down. Fabulously done, Brandace.
