I was happy being single. No relationship drama. No woman putting demands on my time. I had my family and my club. I didn't need anyone else. But when a mysterious brunette walked into our clubhouse, something inside me shifted. She wasn't like anyone I'd ever met. Everything I prided myself on, being unattached, emotionally unavailable, in it for nothing but sex . . . it all shattered.

I should've listened when she told me she had doubts about us, suspicions which she was yet to find out were justified, and let her walk away.

And could I step away from the past and emerge on the other side intact?
