She’s known about you since you were little, Nine.” “No.” He takes his eyes off the road for a second. She’s going to judge me, hate me, and, what else do mothers do? My boyfriend’s mother is staying with me. Of course, now I’m chewing my lip because Mrs. I wasn’t going to, but he gave me the perfect idea when I was desperate to make a point that his mother had to stay with me. I clamp my lips together and refuse to answer the question. “Yes, Mason Bradley.” This is the tenth time he has asked me the question. If I could use my license to kill, maybe I can stop worrying about one thing and concentrate on what to do with the green eyed girl who keeps me awake most nights. In addition to that, the scumbag she dated years ago keeps popping up everywhere we go. The more I try to stay away from her, the more she pulls me closer.Įxploring the possibilities of having something steady in my life isn’t a problem it’s the long term that worries me. Except… Ainsley Janine –better known as ‘Nine’-has some special power that makes me question my preferences. I don’t want a place to call home or a girl I can claim as mine. My father has been obsessed with that love for years while my mother searches for love in all the wrong places. My parents divorced before I even made my entrance into this world. Here, I thought that after telling my parents about my lies and having their full support, things wouldn’t be as complicated as they are. There’s something between us I want to explore but I keep getting mixed signals. My other concern is the growing feelings I am having regarding Mason. Porter has trouble understanding that there hasn’t been an ‘us’ for more than three years plus all the issues he had brought upon himself. Along the way, I have my trusty superhero, Mason, to lean on when I have a hard time standing or when my crazy ex-boyfriend continues to feel he has a claim on me. The lies between my parents and I came to light and now I’m working on a new life for myself.
