𝐒𝐡𝐞’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐞…𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐥𝐞 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞. 𝘏𝘢𝘳𝘭𝘢𝘯 I’ve done my best to stay out of trouble the past few years. My life is finally on the straight and narrow, and I need it to remain that way. But then I catch her trashing her ex’s house. Lennox is a spitfire of a woman who acts first and thinks later. She needs a firm hand. Someone to guide her and keep her focused on what’s right. I’m willing to be that man. Willing to be the one to teach her how to control her rage. That is until her ex takes it one step too far. Now, he’s got me to answer to. ~*~*~ 𝘓𝘦𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘹 I gave my ex everything, only to find him cheating on me. Classic story, right? Well, I took it a step further and trashed his house, his yard, and his car. Harlan keeps me from doing too much damage, but that doesn’t stop my ex from calling the cops. I’ve got charges pressed against me. I just want to focus on going to work and going home and minding my own business so I don’t get myself into more trouble. But my ex is on a mission to ruin my life. To ruin me. Only he doesn’t realize the kind of man Harlan is. And one thing I’ve learned…when it comes to me, Harlan doesn’t play games. Tyler is about to find out what happens when you mess with an ex-criminal’s woman.
