Sugar Daddy: A Single Dad Next Door Romance
Page 34
It was only supposed to be one night - but she left me desperate for more.
Searching for the girl with the sparkling blue eyes and wild passion. Ava Lockley.
The one who danced and kissed and cried out with total abandon in my arms.
When she walked out in the middle of the night, I thought I’d never find her again.
Until she turns up at my office days later.
Part of a new team - working for me and totally off-limits.
My business has ruled my life for years…but I can’t stay away.
One night turns into two, stealing moments together and sneaking around.
Then she says she’s pregnant.
A baby. My baby.
If anyone finds out, my once-in-a-lifetime business deal is screwed.
She’ll lose the one chance she’s got at her dream job.
So now we have this secret - and all I want to do is tell people.
I’m going to be a Daddy.
The only thing that stops me is putting her career in jeopardy.
It can’t stay hidden forever - but that doesn’t matter.
This baby is mine. Ava is mine.
And I’ll do whatever it takes for us to be a family.
Even if I have to give up my life’s work.

Hero Next Door
Ex-Marine. Ex-Wife. Ex-hausted.

She’s got the sweetest smile, the hottest damn curves and behind it all…a haunted look.
I can’t take my damn eyes off her.
My powerful body and coarse attitude make her nervous - and as she tries to start a new life away from her abusive ex, she has her own reasons to stay away.

And when she tells me how much she wants a baby…
I make every mistake in the book.
Because I want a family again.
I want her. My son. And a baby.

Single Dad CEO
Kenneth Stark. Billionaire CEO. Sexy Single Dad.
At least, that’s what they want to see.
I don’t tell anyone it’s all falling apart.
My little girl needs more than my divided attention – we both do.
Someone to make us a family again.
But with my billion dollar fortune, I can't trust anyone I date.
Except maybe the one girl who wants nothing to do with me at all.
Jessica Reynolds.
Ten years ago, I broke her heart…
Now she’s back. My new secretary.
The same sexy curves, sparkling humor and gorgeous smile...with a new distrust in her eyes.
I guess she’s not over what happened all those years ago.
The more I see of her…the more I think I’m not either.
It’s a bad idea.
She’s hurt and scared, with her own problems.
I’ve got my daughter to think of - and a damn harassment lawsuit to deal with.
This isn’t the time to be fantasizing about my new secretary.
But then I see her with my little girl. Laughing and playing together. Everything I’ve always wanted.
And none of that matters anymore.
I want her back. I want a family. And I always get what I want.
I made a mistake all those years ago.
Now, I’ll do whatever it takes to win her back.
And this time, I won’t let anything get in our way.

Single Dad’s Cabin
I came to the mountains so my daughter could heal.
Isolation. Refuge. Sanctuary.
An escape from the past.
I never thought it was a sacrifice.
Not until I met her.
Lying half-frozen in the snow, the storm raging all around us.
So fragile. So vulnerable. And the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen.
She doesn’t belong here, but there’s no way I’m letting her die on my mountain.
I’ll save her, care for her, and when I’m done…I’ll let her go.
Until I see her with my daughter.
Until she leaves me burning with heat.
And I wonder whether I’ve been doing this all wrong.
Maybe what my scarred little girl needs - what she’s always needed - isn’t the mountain.
Maybe it’s the kind touch and sparkling eyes of a beautiful woman.
Maybe that’s what I need, too.
I know it’s not that simple.
She has a past she won’t talk about.
Mine is clouded with guilt and regret.
But every moment with her makes me think of the future - of a real family.
When our pasts catch up to us?
No f*cking way I’m letting that go.

Billionaire Baby Daddy
My baby daddy is NYC’s most eligible bachelor – and no one knows.
Sexy, powerful and charming – the world loves Alistair Sinclair.
I did too. Five years ago.
But our fiery passion couldn’t change his cold attitude or arrogant demands – so I left.
I didn’t know what he’d left me with, but when I found out…I was even more determined.
I didn’t want my baby girl growing up under her Daddy’s hard expectations.
Until now.
Five years later and struggling alone – I can’t live with the secret anymore.
I have to tell him. I have to give him the chance to know his little girl.
But I won’t go back to him. I won’t fall for that sexy smile, the impish suggestions and whispered promises. I won’t make that mistake twice – and things are different now.
I’m a Mommy. And he’s…a Daddy.
What I don’t count on?
He sees his daughter and melts.
And suddenly… I’m wanting things I’ve stopped letting myself think about.
A family. A Daddy. A man – touching me, kissing me, driving me to my knees and setting my body on fire. Reminding me that I’m more than just a Mom.
It’s impossible. It can’t end well. We already crashed and burned once.
And appearing on a billionaire’s arm with a four-year-old kid in front of NYC’s elite?
Yeah, everyone is out to get us.
So why am I falling so hard, so fast – when I already know how this will end?

Forbidden Baby Daddy
He took my breath, took my innocence and left me carrying his baby - longing for more.
There are so many reasons to stay away from Ash Thorne…and I’m about to ignore every one.
I’m the bad boy from the wrong part of town. Dangerous. Disreputable. Devilish.
I live my life hard, fast and rough - and that’s exactly how I like it.
Until she walks into it, like a breath of fresh air I didn’t know I needed.
Adorable, sweet and oh-so-innocent. With an enthusiasm for life I hadn't realized I’d lost.
Gorgeous curves, the cutest spattering of freckles and that sparkle in her eyes...
She’s never even felt a man’s touch. She doesn’t belong here - but how can I resist?
I take her home and show her everything she’s been missing out on…the kind of night she’ll never forget.
I don’t expect to see her again.
She knows better than to get involved with a guy like me.
But then she surprises me in more ways than one.
> When she does come back around? She’s carrying my baby.
I’m going to be a f*cking Daddy!
She’s terrified, of course. Her parents are ultra-conservative and she doesn’t have a plan.
I don’t give a f*ck about any of that - her assh*le father doesn’t intimidate me.
But I have a past she knows nothing about - and the people coming after me?
They’re something else entirely.
There’s a reason pure, sweet Chloe should never have gotten involved with me.
This baby is a complication neither of us can afford…but the moment she tells me, none of that matters.
For the first time, I find myself wanting something else.
Another life. A family. With her.
And when my past comes back to haunt me?
I’ll fight for it with everything I have.
