COPPER + BAKER

Baker Ritter knew how to pick them.


She met the man she thought she was going to marry in middle school, gave him some of the best years of her life, for him to leave her pregnant and alone hours before she’s due to have his baby.


To make matters worse, he brings his side chick to the birth, and she’s left with a decision—fight for what she wants, or cut her losses.
What she should’ve done was cut her losses.

What she does instead is take him back and experiences what it’s like to live in hell.


When she’s at the lowest of the low, she calls her dad, an ex-con, who sends the one person he knows that can fix it all.


Copper Clayborne.


* * *

Copper Clayborne has no time for nonsense—that nonsense being a woman and a baby.


But that woman’s dad saved his life in prison and kept saving it until he was strong enough to save himself.


He owes everything to Baker’s dad, so of course he says yes when he asks to let Baker move in with him.


That doesn’t mean that he has to have anything to do with her.


He’s got a business to fix—then bring down in the most fantastic, public way possible.


He’s also got years of celibacy to make up for.


He doesn’t have time to fall for the woman and her kid.


He certainly doesn’t have the mental headspace to deal with her drama.


He gives it his all, but Baker wiggles into his cracked and bleeding heart, and makes herself right at home. Whether he wants her there or not.
