I should be over it. At least, that’s what I’m told. After all these years, my heart should be able to set aside its grief. But the grief won’t leave . . . or I can’t let it go. Still, even though I know I’ll never love again, I’ve managed to put up a decent façade, one that makes me look a little more put together than I feel. It’s mainly for my boys, who need me now more than ever. But I secretly doubt whether I’m enough. The boys need more than just me.
I was groomed to be a leader among my peers, the head of the Prince empire. Many hate me for it, while others adore me for nothing more than my last name. I let it go to my head. I moved from woman to woman and never thought about money . . . until the moment my selfish actions caught up to me and my entire world fell apart. Now I have to make up for it. It’s not enough to just give away millions to charity. I also need to give the commodity I’ve always guarded: my time. So I turn to the one thing I was good at without my family’s influence. I start a soccer league for teens in a small town far from both fans and haters. I’m giving these kids a chance to be seen by scouts who wouldn’t have noticed them otherwise. But as I’m changing the world for these boys, I realize that what I’m receiving from them is much more than I could ever give them. Especially when I meet the beautiful mother of the twin boys who have already won me over.
He should be arrogant. I’ve heard the stories about his conquests, not just with women but in business and life. He’s definitely not the kind of man I want influencing my boys. But in just a few interactions I realize he’s nothing like the gossip surrounding him. He’s sweet and funny—and wise. He teaches my boys by his actions that hard work is the key to success. And as much as I say he’s in our lives just for the boys, I feel myself being drawn to him.
The twins need me more than the others, probably because of losing their dad. Kids should never have to go through that, so I do my best to help. They make it easy. So does Snow. But it feels like every time I make any headway with her, I fall another three steps back. She’s built some high walls around her heart and for some reason I want to scale them. Grayson Prince, the guy who hasn’t gone on a second date in a dozen years, wants to be her knight in shining armor. And not just because she’s beautiful, kind, and a danged good mom. There’s something about her brave, resilient spirit that draws me to her.
Grayson is filling in the holes in my heart. And as much as it scares me, I know I need it . . . I need him. The boys need him too. And not just because of helicopter rides to the city, but because he is genuinely there for them. For us. And I’m beginning to think that maybe, just maybe, my heart can heal enough to start loving again. Because I think we’re meant to be.
Until I find out the dark truth. The mistake he made that changed everything. The unforgiveable act that will separate us forever.
But I can’t let her go.
