Today’s teaser comes from Pride (Single Dads 6)
Unedited – Coming February 2023
“How are you doing?”
I glanced up at the cop—Leo—who went to an immediate crouch as if he saw something in me that meant he had to make himself look non-threatening. He was the friend of a friend, someone I’d seen at Nick’s barbecues, one of the good guys, and he had the most gorgeous dog who I recall ate twelve sausages in one sitting before anyone realised they were missing.
Memories like that grounded me and made me feel less like I was about to lose the chocolate bar I’d just eaten all over his shiny black shoes.
“Huh?”
“Gray? Do you need me to get a doctor?”
“I’m okay,” I lied. I’ve received death threats before, hell things like that had been the biggest reason my business partner Nick had pulled out of our documentary company. But the threats never touched me the same way they’d done him. Until reality had picked up a baseball bat and then tried to destroy my window. I stared down at my hands, at the cut on the palm which was little more than a paper cut but which hurt like hell.
“I didn’t expect to see you here,” he murmured, patting my knee and standing up. Clearly, I’d fooled him into thinking I was okay when he left my apartment.
Pride
A blazing connection between single dads from opposite sides of the tracks is fraught with secrets and lies, and a happily ever after is impossible, unless they take a chance on love.
Saved a long time ago by a man who saw a diamond in the rough, Logan is a single dad and the owner of Redcars Automotive, a haven for those in need. With custody of his daughter under scrutiny, his life is upended when a journalist looking for a story slips into his life without him realizing. Logan doesn’t want Gray more than once, but when sharing the secrets of his past won’t get the journalist to leave, what else can he do?
After blaming himself for missing signs that his son was ill, Gray feels Ben is safer with his ex-wife and her new pediatrician husband. With a heart heavy with guilt, and his documentary company failing to find a story, he’s searching for some spark in his life to fix everything. When a series of arson attempts draws him to Los Angeles, he meets the secretive, scarred, and tattooed Logan, who makes him an offer that Gray knows he should refuse.
This opposites-attract love story features two single dads reaching a crossroads in life, angst, secrets, arson, intimidation, and a found family so tightly connected that nothing can break it apart.
