She thinks I’m a rule follower. Or, maybe more precisely, a rule enforcer. I suppose I do like things by the book. Straight-laced? Sure. Or I had been before I saw the pink-haired beauty tending bar and realized for her I’d break all the rules.
She quickly becomes my obsession, and I admit I may take my interest in her a little far. Breaking the same laws I’d enforced on others. But I only watch her to keep her safe, to keep her close, and to make sure no one tries to take what’s mine.
My reputation for being a straight arrow may be ruining my chance with Addilyn. I have to show her that I’m the man for her, no matter what. And I will, because Addilyn is the only woman I will ever love.
