Sexy Jerk World Series by Kim Karr

Our story didn’t begin with Once-Upon-A-Time…it started with screw you. I didn’t mean it literally. The trial had been dragging on and the opposing counsel was past the point of irritating me. Even his blonde hair, blue eyes, and drop-dead gorgeous looks couldn’t stop me when he called out, “Objection, Your Honor, but she must be delusional.” "Screw you." My outburst was warranted... moreOur story didn’t begin with Once-Upon-A-Time…it started with screw you. I didn’t mean it literally. The trial had been dragging on and the opposing counsel was past the point of irritating me. Even his blonde hair, blue eyes, and drop-dead gorgeous looks couldn’t stop me when he called out, “Objection, Your Honor, but she must be delusional.” "Screw you." My outburst was warranted. Don’t you agree? The judge didn’t see it that though, and he ordered the two of us to his chambers, where he unceremoniously locked us inside to work things out. Alone with the person who had become a thorn in my side, it didn’t take long for one thing to became glaringly clear— Ethan Miller likes it dirty. The realization had me wanting to drop to my knees. All the weeks of pent-up tension suddenly seemed unbearable, and I didn’t care about anything. Who he was. Who I was. The fact that we were on opposing sides. Not even where we were. As he pushed me back on the hard wooden surface, it wasn’t how wrong this was I was thinking about. It wasn’t how I could be disbarred for this very inappropriate conduct. It was more like, “Oh, my God, he’s really talented with that wicked tongue of his.” Hey, I like it dirty too. Little did I know the consequences of our indiscretion would bond us together forever, and not in the happily-ever-after kind of way. We were two completely different people, and the whole opposites attract thing could only stretch so far. Right? *** PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A SHORT STORY and a prequel to SEXY JERK *** less

To believe one person can change your destiny sounds absurd. But it happened to me… twice. Ten years ago I had no idea what I wanted out of life, until I met Hannah Michaels. She was a computer-engineering student ready to conquer the social media world, and I was smitten. Even though I knew she was taken, I had to have her. Being the big shot that I was, I didn’t let her status stand in my way. It wasn’t long before my hands were on her thighs and my name a whisper on her lips... moreTo believe one person can change your destiny sounds absurd. But it happened to me… twice. Ten years ago I had no idea what I wanted out of life, until I met Hannah Michaels. She was a computer-engineering student ready to conquer the social media world, and I was smitten. Even though I knew she was taken, I had to have her. Being the big shot that I was, I didn’t let her status stand in my way. It wasn’t long before my hands were on her thighs and my name a whisper on her lips. This smart, sexy girl inspired me to greatness, helped me grow into the kind of man I never knew I wanted to be. The man I am today. Too bad I hadn’t grown fast enough to keep her. Moving on wasn’t easy, but I knew I had to let her go. Eventually, I found someone to share my days and nights with, and together we had a daughter. My life was nearly perfect until my world turned upside down. A single father has challenges, and one of those is learning how to calmly deal with your child coming home in tears. I had no idea the day I pounded on my daughter’s classmate’s door, Hannah would be the one standing on the other side. The wild, burning desire that rushed through my veins was unwanted, and yet impossible to ignore. Letting her in meant so much more this time around. Guilt hit me like a hammer. I hated myself. I hated her. The problem was I really didn’t hate her—I wanted her more than ever. But this time around, I can’t have her. This time it’s my status that stands in our way—and going up against myself just might be the hardest thing I’ve ever done. less
