Jude's Story

Finding a woman wasn’t something on Johnnie’s to-do list, but there’s just something about Carly he can’t resist. He easily learns that he’s definitely his daddy’s son though, because now, the only thing he wants is her.
Johnnie
I was fine simply going about my days, handling the finances for my family’s business. I wasn’t expecting to keep running into the curvy beauty all over town, and I certainly wasn’t expecting to be so desperate to keep her safe when she’s afraid. My brother was supposed to be the son that’s just like our dad, but now, I have to admit, I’m more like him than I imagined, because once I have my hands fully on sweet Carly, she’s all mine and I’m never letting go.
Someone thinks they can threaten her, take her from me, but that certainly won’t be happening. I’ll keep my hands clean as long as the police can keep her safe, if not, then this town is going to see exactly what happens when you threaten the Cartwright family. Carly’s last name might now be it yet, but as soon as this shit is handled, she’s all mine, including the baby I’m putting in her.

Carly
I made one mistake—this time at least. I lost a contract I was supposed to take to my father, and now, he’s breathing down my neck to find it and get it back to him. The only problem is, I can’t begin to remember where I lost it. So instead of doing whatever I want while trying to figure out what to do with my life, I’m trapsing all over town, trying to track down this stupid contract—all the while running into the hottest man I’ve ever met. He’s definitely got the top billing in all my fantasies even if I don’t stand a chance with him. So, when I’m forced to meet my father’s boss and his client for dinner to apologize and explain what happened, get a signature on a new contract, the last thing I expect is to find myself scooped up and hurried away from the place by my fantasy hunk.
Well, maybe the second or third to last thing I expect when he tells me about the seedy club I almost went into, and with the kiss he lays on me. Suddenly, my fantasies are mine for the taking, along with his assurances that he’ll keep me safe, when my father’s boss threatens me with more than simply firing my father if I don’t get him his money. I try to leave, but Johnnie’s not hearing it. He wants me, wants to put his baby in me and keep me—and I’m going to let him because there is nothing sweeter than this fantasy come to life.
