Danger (The Driven World)
I never knew I could be this happy. Ever since that day when my father killed my mother I felt my life was never meant to know this type of happiness. That my life would only ever be an endless loop of never-ending sadness. But Monterey has taught me that I deserve a good life. That I can make my life into anything I want and I don’t need to dwell on my past. That I can overcome it and prove to myself that I can do anything I want for me, for us.
And everyday I try to be the man she and Pearl both deserve.
I took a year off racing when Pearl was born, just so I could spend more time with my girls while Monterey runs Grander Racing. My wife is a badass boss, and it turns me on just to watch her work most days.
The book my father wrote never made it to the big screen, and I’m happy to say it’s no longer on the bestseller’s list either. And I’ve decided to write my own book. To tell my own story about how I overcame my bad upbringing and triumphed the moment I fell for the right woman. Maybe once Pearl is a little older I can finally find the time to write it. For now it’s enough to know my story exists. That one can overcome a bad life. That a person can carve out their own happy existence and make their life into whatever they wish for. And as for this bad boy I couldn’t wish for anything better.
