Morning Glory

Deacon

Dakota is the love of my life, and I’m too much of a coward to tell her. She insists we have to keep this a secret, but I can’t understand why.

I get her friendship with my brother is important, but surely as a grown man, he can see that love is bigger than friendship. Plus, just because we’re together doesn’t mean they can’t stay friends.

But according to Dakota, that’s exactly why we need to keep sneaking around.

Until she blindsides me and buys me at the annual charity firefighter auction. The Cat’s out of the bag, and chaos reigns supreme. She’s worried about cleaning up the mess, and I just want to know …

Does she love me too?

 

Dakota

Buying my best friend’s brother at the annual charity auction is not the best way to tell everyone we’ve been together secretly for two years. And yet that’s exactly what I did.

Forrest and I have been best friends since we were four years old. Everyone says boys and girls can’t be friends, but Forrest and I can.

I’ll never see Forrest that way. His older brother, Deacon, though? Yeah. I’ve been in love with him forever. But being ‘brother and sister’ with Forrest meant being a sister to his brothers, too—putting Deacon off-limits.

Until he isn’t. But I don’t just want to be his booty call. I want more. So, with his mother’s blessing, I buy him.

And all hell breaks loose.

Can I keep Forrest and Deacon in my life, or do I have to give one of them up? Both own a piece of my heart, and I can’t picture a life without them.
