I don’t have time for anything, especially not a woman. Then I see her. Jenna and that long blonde hair are ten years older now. I don’t want anything to do with the girl who didn’t think I was good enough in high school, But I don’t mind showing her that she deserves better than that boyfriend she dragged back from New York... moreARMY I have too many issues to deal with as the president of the Aces.

JERICHOThere are days in a person’s life that will change them forever. Sometimes those days come out of nowhere,And change you irrevocably without warning.I’ve spent the majority of my life running from anything negative.Until I run right into something I can’t run away from.As soon as I save the life of a woman I’ve never met, I know I should leave. Instead, I find myself unable to move, stuck to her like glue. I’ve never stayed in one place for more than a weekend since I became an adult... moreJERICHOThere are days in a person’s life that will change them forever.
