“My soul was battered and bruised by the men who had come before Walker. It wasn’t his fault.
But the reality was, they’d left wounds, and those wounds meant I’d need the man I loved to show me in every way he could that I was everything to him. That I had him in a way no one else did. I didn’t know if that was realistic or right, but it’s how I felt. How I needed it.”

“So, you’re a badass.” I grinned, trying to free myself of the sexual tension I hoped he couldn’t sense.
Walker’s stony expression cracked a little. “I’m the biggest fucking badass out there, and anyone who thinks they can terrorize you is going to wish they were dead by the time I’m done with them.”

“Walker was on my left, Regan on my right, and Thane on Regan’s right. She nudged me with her knee, and I met her gleaming gaze. She wiggled her eyebrows.
I gave a huff of laughter. “Will you knock it off?” I whispered.
“You and Walker. I knew it,” she whispered back.
“Anyone with eyes knew it,” Walker murmured.”

“Get upstairs.”
Thrill filled me even as nervous butterflies fluttered wildly in my belly. “Are you going to be this bossy all the time?”
“Did you think I would be anything but in charge when we fuck?”
No.
No, I guessed not.
The man was a dominant, sexy bastard.”

“My priority is my kid. And while you might look at me and see an exhausted single mom who needs to get gently laid and have a so-so, satisfactory orgasm, it’s us single moms who genuinely want a guy to fuck them wild and hard and give us multiple orgasms. And then go home so we don’t have to explain you to our kids or deal with you on top of the millions of other things we have to deal with on the daily.”
