He was big and sexy and growly, and smelled like every wishful dream I’d ever had, and forgotten. Making me want things I’d never wanted before. Making me want to run from him as fast as my legs could carry me. Secretly, hoping he would chase me.LachlanI was having a bad morning.

He's stern scowls and a monotone fashion sense.Sure, he's insanely hot.
