  And maybe—just maybe, I can admit that the minute she served me the first loss of my life, when she beat me at my own damn game, that I started to question who I really was. But the moment when I refused to grovel like the other weak book heroes, was exactly when I remembered.

  Deal with it.

  No, I’m not completely healed or fixed. I’m far from it.

  My past still shows up in flashes from time to time, waking me up from my sleep on nights when I least expect it, but it’s nowhere near as often. And it’s nowhere near as lonely since the woman I fell for is always by my side.

  She’s the best thing that’s ever happened to me, the only woman who knows me inside and out, and she never judged me when she found out who I really was.

  She’s the true hero of this story.

  Not me…

  Nonetheless, since I don’t feel like waxing poetic about why that is, or giving you an additional page of fluff, you can close the book now.

  You’re done here.

  Move on to the damaged, groveling heroes and the sweet “happily ever afters” that you’re used to.

  As for me, I’ll move on to what I’ve always wanted, what I’ve secretly longed for, for over twenty years now. Three things I never thought I’d get the chance to experience.

  Happiness.

  True love.

  A peaceful night’s sleep.

  THE END

  If you enjoyed this serial trilogy and want to read something in similar vein, stay tuned for the Sinful Saints Trilogy. It’s a little dark, a ton of sexy, and one of my favorite stories to date!Also, be sure to check out my other erotic romances, which are full-length novels: Mister Weston (Meredith’s best friend Gillian is the heroine in this story ) and Reasonable Doubt (Probably one of the sexiest alphas I’ve ever created is in this one, and his name is Andrew Hamilton.)

  Author’s Note

  Thank you to every reader who is currently reading this note. I wrote this series for myself and it’s a true passion project, but I wanted to share it with you.

  Between you and me, I spend the majority of my reading hours on thrillers and suspense, so I wanted to bring in the new year (and new decade) by writing something in that vein while still keeping the romance.

  Originally, I had no plans to publish this serial. It was going to be printed and tucked away in my desk drawer where I keep a box of manuscripts labeled, “Just for Me,” but I dared myself to hit publish for this one. Perhaps doing so will give me the courage to publish the others someday. Maybe.

  Anyway, if you read it and loved it, please leave a review to let others know. (If you hated it…Well, keep that shit to yourself. LOL Just kidding! Please leave a review for that as well.) If you want to personally tell me your thoughts, you can find me here: Instagram or Facebook.

  Also, please sign up for my mailing list so I can keep you in the loop about my upcoming work. Or, if you’re not into that, check in with me every so often at whitneygbooks.com where I spill the “tea” on whatever I’m working on next.

  Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU.

  F.L.Y.

  (Effin love you)
