After dating my boyfriend Danny for five weeks, I was finally ready to take our relationship to the next level. I asked him to take me parking up at Harper's Hill, the local make-out spot in my small town. Just as things started to get heated, he revealed that he was only dating me because of a dare.
What was even more mortifying than Danny's revelation was when a flashlight tapped against the backseat window.
I was forced to exit the car in my half-dressed state only to come face-to-face with the newest member of the police force; Officer Brent Jordison.
My hot, alpha male stepbrother.
What happened next was something I couldn't have even imagined.
Ever since that night, my life has spiraled wildly out of control. The only certainty I have left is that Brent is the only man I’ll ever want and simultaneously the one man that I shouldn’t.
Not that I’m going to let anything stop me from trying to keep him.
