He scoffed and said that wasn’t my decision to make.
I told him that if he ever touched me again, I would kill him in his sleep.
All that did was piss him off and hospital security had to toss him out. I moved back in with my mom, but he wouldn’t leave me alone.
Then Gail’s brother, Deacon Jones, a deputy sheriff in Rosewood, paid Randy a little visit at his house to have a little talk with him.
Deacon was six foot five and as wide as a door.
And he hated men who abused women.
He told Randy I had gotten a restraining order and wouldn’t press assault charges if he’d just sign the divorce papers Deacon had in his big hand. I could only imagine Randy’s initial response.
I wasn’t sure what else Deacon said or did, but when he came by Mom’s house to drop off the signed divorce papers, he promised Randy would never bother me again.
He also had all my clothes and meager possessions in boxes in the back of his cruiser.
The divorce became final three months later.
I’d never set foot in the FoodMart again, and I hadn’t run into Randy. So, if there was a silver lining to this dark cloud that was my life, that was it.
Cut to now, a year later.
I was taking online bookkeeping classes paid for by the state’s employment office and working nights at a convenience store for minimum wage.
My dream of being a physical therapist was on hold, at least for now.
I live in a crappy, rent-subsidized apartment in the shitty part of town because my mother moved to Florida with her latest boyfriend and sold her house to “finance their new life.”
Gail was still my best friend, but she had her own life to lead.
So, yeah, that was my story and I was sticking to it.
I glanced at the clock.
It was almost midnight.
I’d had enough of this pity party for one night.
I was going to bed.

About The Author
Other than my insatiable desire for chocolate, reading and writing steamy romances is my most guilty pleasure.
I write about tough and sexy Bad Boys who, underneath that armor of muscles and tattoos (and sometimes suits), are more sensitive and wounded than they'd like to admit.
I'm happily married to a really good guy, but, every now and again, I crave the forbidden excitement of falling for one of the bad boys in my stories.
There really is a bad girl in me too!
