Since my wife died four years ago, my daughter, my professorship, and the students in my literacy program have kept me focused. There is no room for distractions. But a stop-off at the new bakery brings me face to face with the owner, Vivienne Cross. Now I can’t get her sexy little smile out of my head. Her desserts are in my house and I see her “cupcakes” all over town. It’s been a long time, but I feel alive again. My world is not as dark as it once was. I even fantasize about frosting... moreSince my wife died four years ago, my daughter, my professorship, and the students in my literacy program have kept me focused. There is no room for distractions. But a stop-off at the new bakery brings me face to face with the owner, Vivienne Cross. Now I can’t get her sexy little smile out of my head. Her desserts are in my house and I see her “cupcakes” all over town. It’s been a long time, but I feel alive again. My world is not as dark as it once was. I even fantasize about frosting. But she lied to me. Even if I can forgive her, I don’t know if it would work out? She’s an heiress and I’m an old-school kind of guy. I like to take care of the women I love. Do I even fit into her world?What can I offer her that she doesn’t already have? Will she be happy with me or want the bigger life within her grasp? less
