A Calendar Of Love

I’m a military man, or was. I should have known better than that.

It gave her the wrong impression. It would to any woman.

Being a single father and losing my wife has left me wanting to pull back from love.

But this new girl at the flower shop, Cupid’s Arrow, has me feeling things I didn’t know I’d ever feel again.

It’s Valentine’s Day, and I want this girl to be mine.

Forever.

He’s completely wrong. All I want in my life is a good woman and a family.

I’m not like other guys, and I’m damn proud of it.

Scarlet O’Hanley isn’t like any other women I’ve met. Oh, she’s beautiful and classy like lots of girls.

But she owns a bar. And this beauty is tough, witty, and keeps the men around her on their toes.

She’s worth far more than a big pot of gold.

And she’s not interested in love. Not with me. Not with anyone.

Lucky for me, I’m willing to show this girl what it means to be loved.

She can put up a fight all she wants. This woman is mine.

There’s no place on the mound for a pitcher with a bum shoulder.

Going back home was not in the plan, but it’s the best place to heal.

And to lay low. Media coverage on my injury is the last thing I need.

The pretty massage therapist I’ve found is a welcome surprise.

In the busyness of trying to live two lives—one a small-town boy and the other a big-time sports hero—I’m lost.

This woman steps up and shows me some things I forgot all about.

Passion in the midst of love.

Family, friends, and healing in ways I couldn’t imagine.

Seems like the old me isn’t at all who I am. And the joke is on me.

This new guy wants to change everything for love.

And now?

I’m the man who is going to save her from her past.

But the sparks between us aren’t enough. She’s lived far too much life for that.

I’m not giving up until I figure out where her pain comes from and how to heal it.

Life’s never than easy though.

The minute I start to crack the code and move in to help her heal, my past shows up.

And a choice must be made. One that threatens to destroy what we’ve started.

I’m a good man. I’ll always sacrifice for others.

Even if that means that I’m nothing but a memory.

Easy words for everyone else, but not me.

My wife died on my operating table, and moving on just isn’t going to happen.

Not until I decided to go back to the small town where I grew up.

My boy and I needed different scenery to try to reboot life.

And we did. Until one day, a beautiful woman walked into my office and everything changed.

She was from one of the oldest families in Tennessee and needed my help.

With the way she made me and my son feel, I was more than happy to offer it.

Love wasn’t supposed to show up again, and certainly not this soon.

But it did. It has.

I just hope she knows that she has to love us both. Forever.

But my mother needed me, and being the good daughter I am, I went.

Days in the hospital only added to the feeling that this holiday season was going to be the worst I’ve suffered, but then he showed up.

A cardiac technician with a smile that makes the angels sing.

And of course, the alpha male rubs me the wrong way. But I can’t help but want to warm myself by the fire swirling in between us.

Things move along quickly and I’m choking on the idea of leaving my big-city New York dream life to be a part of his small-town world.

There’s no way I can allow that to happen though.

I was just home for the holidays. And now it’s time to go.

No matter whose heart it breaks in the process.

Mine included.

As a widowed father of a little boy, trying to keep up with my budding career is getting ridiculous.

It’s my fault for being an expert, but that’s my secret.

I live a humble life in the hills of Tennessee and work to live, not the other way around.

But unfortunately, my secret is out. And with it, the headhunters are working to get me to leave my life of quite comfort and join the wild world of overseas living—London.

And they’re damn smart about it.

Sending a beautiful recruiter with an edge about her that lights my blood on fire.

I never thought I’d love or lust again, but I was wrong. So wrong.

She does things to me that make my decision easy.

My focus has shifted from privacy to desire.

And it all happened with a New Year’s Kiss.
