LUCY GAMBLE, KNOCKED UP BY DYING MAN SHE GAVE SYMPATHY SEX, NOW MOVING ON TO HIS BIG BROTHER.
Have you ever tried to come up with a headline for your life? Well, mine’s so cringeworthy I can’t believe it’s actually my story…or a hundred percent true.
But honestly, how could I say no to the one-night-stand when he begged? Only a monster could deny someone their dying wish, right?
I mean, okay, getting pregnant from the encounter was a regrettable, irresponsible mistake; I can fully admit that.
Turning to his brother, however, was never part of the plan. Initially, I didn’t even like the guy.
Except Vaughn Merrill is a force to be reckoned with. He’s determined to be an “involved” uncle, and no matter how much I tell him he doesn’t have to be so helpful, he’s just so freaking helpful.
And gorgeous.
Plus not at all the ass I assumed he was. Then there’s this massive pain and grief and loneliness I see in his eyes. I just want to hug him constantly and give him the sense of family he so desperately needs.
So really, can you blame me for falling for the one man I know I shouldn’t?
Vaughn has all the right words…

Dear Lucy,
Through my endless, arid grief, you were my oasis, that one spot of blooming color and life, and the only hope I could see for miles around. Knowing you and loving you has been the greatest gift I’ve ever been given. So I hope you don’t mind that my main goal from here on out is to dwell in your company, worshiping and protecting you, loving and befriending you, and learning you for the rest of my days. I’m in awe of everything that you are. Thank you for letting me in your sphere.
Love always, Vaughn
Linda writes romance fiction from YA to adult, contemporary to fantasy. Most Kage stories lean more toward the lighter, funner side with a couple meaningful moments thrown in that center around love and hope. Focuses more on entertainment value and emotional impact than realism. She likes the drama and crazy, over-the-top plots that make you cry then laugh, get mad then sigh happily.
