Synopsis
I am Beau Evans, God’s
gift to women and I damn well know it. I am fearless. I would rather be working
as the homicide detective in Dallas, Texas than anywhere else. I’m the crazy
bastard they call in when no one else wants to go. I’ve seen things that would
cause others to commit themselves to mental hospitals.
I look damn good;
thanks to all the time I spend in the gym and the good genes I was blessed
with. I screw who I want, when I want, how I want. I call the shots and
wouldn’t have it any other way. I live for me and no one else. I am my
own man and do not answer to anyone but myself. I live by these rules and no
one will change that.
That is what I had
convinced myself of anyway, until I met Piper Dylan. She drives me insane in
every way possible. Everything about her annoys me and turns me on at the same
time. She has absolutely no interest in me whatsoever. The more she pulls
away and resists me the more I want her.
My life starts to
become unrecognizable and is spinning out of control. I, Beau Evans am becoming
something I never wanted and always swore I would never become. I begin
fighting for something I am not sure I completely want. Do I walk away for the
second time in my life or decide maybe, just maybe, it’s not all about me any
longer?

Excerpt
Beau fucking Evans was
standing outside a crime scene, crying like a pussy. The other officers on the
scene were staring at me, trying to compute what was happening. Piper and I
were finally on the same page when I got the call on the radio on my way
driving home after my workout. I tried to get to the scene as fast as I could,
not knowing how I was going to deal with the situation I was about to
face. Fellow officers were outside the scene, securing the block. I got
out of my car and ran to the front of the scene to see what else I could find
out. This could not be happening. The only thing I could think of was seeing
her face.
Rodgers walked up to
me, shaking his head with a look of disappointment on his face.
Oh my God, what is he
going to tell me?
How could he possibly
tell me she was dead? I get it… I get what Cooper and Kyle were saying now. I
get why McKoy tried to hold on to me like she did. She loved me then the way I
loved Piper now. I couldn’t picture my life without her.
When Rodgers reached
me, he put his hand on my shoulder and I froze. Here it goes… I hoped I could
hold myself together.
“Damn, Evans. This shit
sucks. I can’t believe this happened. We always try to make sure the scene is
cleared before our detectives go in. We thought we had…” He was choking up.
“The victim had already been removed from the scene and they were doing the investigation.
I was doing the normal, collecting as much evidence as I could while letting
them work.”
I swallowed hard,
trying to keep the lump in my throat under control. I was a grown-ass man about
to lose it.
