Ford Brothers

A heartbroken heartthrob. A fugitive fiance. Sparks fly when Julia flees...right into Colton. He had me at hello. Months later, I’m fleeing the state with an engagement ring on my finger. John isn’t the one. What looks good on paper is ugly behind closed doors. My sister Liz doesn’t know about John, but she takes me in, with problems of her own. The night I help tend bar with Liz is when I meet Colton. Liz warns me about him. Says that he’s a hardened man. And he looks it, too. With his smouldering eyes and square shoulders, he’s a force to be reckoned with.

This has been an epic, trashy week. I’m studying to take the bar exam, and my best friend is getting married soon. As much as I hate it, my friends and I take her out for a bachelorette party. There’s a live band playing, and the lead singer just drips cocky attitude. With his rudeness and coarse language, it takes everything in me not to clock him the way that my father taught me when I was a little girl. And then, when I don’t think that my week could get any worse, he shows up at the law firm the next day…and he’s my new client.

Getting pregnant by the wrong man and trying to make it right didn’t serve me well. Working night and day in an ICU doesn’t bode well for a relationship, either, but I’m doing my best. Tonight, the most beautiful man walks into the hospital. He’s here for his father, who was just rushed in with a massive heart attack. His son, Garrett Ford, is a pilot, and he’s dressed like one. It’s difficult to focus on my job with a man who is larger than life and dressed to kill, with piercingly blue eyes and full lips.

Moving to a new neighborhood is never easy. But after Aaron’s accident, there wasn’t a choice. He’s a stubborn man, a hard-working man, and now he’s a disabled man. Marriage is never easy, either, especially when we got married so young. We both traveled down different paths, and what we both wanted then isn’t necessarily what we both want now. A new friend helps me see that, but he also helps me see that I deserve those things that I still want. It may be too late.

No, really, I’m not afraid of anything. Born and raised in Russia, I’ve seen things. After our parents died, my sister and I began another life…in America. Seems men aren’t much different in the land of opportunity. And when a once in a lifetime career choice pops up on my radar, I go for it, despite the fact that the CFO of the company looks like he wants more than just my list of references. When Jack Ford turns his back, I ready myself, but instead of taking a piece of what’s being offered, for the first time in my life…a man surprises me.
