But one night with Emmie changed everything. She8217s sweet, innocent, and unforgettable. One night wasn8217t enough to get her out of my system, but when I see her again she8217s not just the woman who8217s been haunting my thoughts8212she8217s my tenant8217s granddaughter, and I8217m the man about to take everything from her family.I should walk away. I should stick to my plan. But the need to claim her as mine burns stronger than any obligation, and I won8217t stop until she knows I8217m here to fight for her, not against her.
