For one night of my life, I dared to do something reckless. My birthday. A bar. Karaoke. And a man so hot he could melt the sun. Sparks flew. Lust took over. For one night of my life, I felt alive. Then I was back to my “boring” life. Career-driven. Goal-oriented. Always planning ahead. But nothing could have prepared me for the positive pregnancy test. We weren’t that reckless. There goes my “boring” life. And what happens when I tell the father?

I'd been known to have my share of beautiful women. Usually, I met them in a bar, through a mutual acquaintance, or even when photographing them. Imagine my surprise when a gorgeous blonde drove her car into mine on the way to a party. No more than a minute after our run-in, a string of colorful words flew from her mouth in rapid fire. Inexplicably, the angrier she became, the harder I got. All sorts of scenarios played in my head of how I could get her to shut up. When I learned she was a school teacher, that worsened my disposition.

EU SOU VAUGHN LAIR. Você deve ter ouvido falar do meu primo estrela do rock, Jack. Eu também estou na rádio, mas por motivos completamente diferentes. Minha voz não faz as mulheres desmaiarem através de uma letra e melodia... é o conteúdo do meu programa sindicalizado na rádio que as faz ficarem desesperadas para falar comigo. Eu sou um terapeuta sexual que distribui ótimos conselhos. Meu doutorado me dá passe livre para ser honesto.

I’ve always been known as the hopeless romantic...the nice guy...the sweetheart. Everything in my life supported this persona. My students loved my easy personality. My colleagues admired the way I handled myself in the classroom. But something was always missing. Like so many relationships before it, my current attempt at love felt like a dead end. When she gave me an ultimatum, I couldn’t promise to give her what she wanted. So, she ended it.

She's my, gorgeous, older, feisty agent...and I have no business wanting her. Who could have predicted you’d walk into my life? Ruined me in the best and worst of ways...changed me forever? But how can I compete with the frivolous gifts and exotic destinations he dangles in your face? I shouldn’t even have the balls to try. All I can give you are words, notes, and melodies. Like the songs recorded on this album, some of which were created because of you. You already have my heart. Does he have yours?
