“That’s your dad?” I’ve been best friends with Nadine for four years. This is the first time I’ve seen her dad. Tall, muscular, mysterious. Ford Callahan captured my attention the moment he rolled down the car window and told me to get in. I thought it would just be an innocent afternoon spent at my best friend’s house, but I found myself knowing more about him than I should. And connecting with him more than I’m allowed to. Now I can’t stop myself. I’m taking every excuse to see him. HIs house, his clinic… even in my dreams. Where my fantasies of him are free to evolve. But what if my chaotic, abusive home spirals out of control and gets him involved? Will he turn away, maybe become my savior? Or will be become something more? *** “Say it, Livia.” Ford steps forward, his lips nearly brushing on mine as his hands start to wander. “I need to hear it from you.” “Just….” I sigh as his fingers find my weakness. “Just one kiss, please… daddy.”
