Escorting the Player (The Escort Collection 3)

I smelled something yummy coming from the kitchen, so I headed in. Avery had plates out and she was filling them with enchiladas and rice.

"Babe. You are seriously the best thing that ever happened to Chase Layne." I grabbed a plate and then reached for the bowl of shredded cheese.

"You can't have that." She slapped my hand.

"Why not?" I asked, crestfallen.

"Because it's nacho cheese." She said, snorting with laughter. "Get it? It's a joke! 'Nacho' cheese. 'Not your' cheese. Hey, why aren't you laughing?"

"Wow. Just…wow." I shook my head. "You tell seriously bad jokes."

She kept giggling. "At least I don't talk about myself in the third person."

"They warned you—they said this was for better or for worse. This is what they meant."

"I'll take it." Avery was still laughing. It was good that she at least amused herself.

We heard another crash and I ignored it, stuffing some enchilada in my mouth. Oh my God, it was so good. "I will, too babe. I will too."

Liberty Begins - Preface

I didn’t know how long I had been lying on the floor, looking up at the man who had ripped my family apart. In that moment, staring into each other’s eyes, I remembered everything, every lie he’d ever told me. His eyes told me he was afraid.
