20 Years Older Than Me
Janae Jones, Tyla Walker
Now she’s wearing a ring for a boy who doesn’t even know how to look at her.
He doesn’t know how her voice shakes when she lies.
How she stops breathing when I enter a room.
How close I came to pulling her into my lap that night in her father’s office.
She’s twenty-five. I’m forty-five.
She calls me sir out of habit.
And every time she says yes to him, I swear I hear it echo down the hallway to me.
But when she shows up in my bed the night before her wedding?
I stop pretending I don’t want to ruin her.
I stop pretending she’s not already mine.
They can have the vows. The flowers. The goddamn country club guest list.
Because I’m taking the bride.
Read on for a broken engagement, brutal obsession, father’s-best-friend betrayal, and a silverfox who’s done waiting for permission. HEA Guaranteed!
