to ask you this but now seems like the right time.”
“What’s up?” He looks concerned.
“I’m curious about how you’d feel about having another person to protect and be their hero?”
His forehead wrinkles with confusion. “I’m not sure why you’re asking that. Is this a trick question? Am I supposed to say you’re the only one I want to protect?”
I laugh and shake my head. Stepping closer, I drape my hands on his shoulders and stare up into his striking eyes. “I’m asking you how you’d feel if you had another person to protect? Someone who would depend on you and I for everything. Someone who could look up to you and want to be just like you.”
His eyes slowly open wider. “Are you saying what I think you’re saying?”
I nod, my eyes tearing up. “I’m pregnant.”
“I love you,” he husks before kissing me. I taste the salt of his tears on my lips. Or maybe they’re both of ours mingling together. Looking down at me with wonder on his face, he asks, “I’m really going to be a dad?”
I nod. “Not just a dad, but the best one ever.”

Haven’t read MANTRUM?
Read on for a sneak peek of Rex and Danika’s story.
Available on AMAZON and FREE with KindleUnlimited
Mantrum: An emotional outburst or an expression of anger by an adult man.
I’ve never understood the attraction women have for an alpha male, until I meet single father, Rex Winters.
Tall, chiseled, and persistent, he tries to avoid a parking ticket by asking me out to dinner. But I know men like him. He’s a repeat offender--habitually getting into trouble and always ready to sweet talk his way out of it.
But his charm won’t work on me.
Not when he’s the reason I’m forced to attend a six-week anger management class. And especially not when I find out all six feet two inches of Rex and his two hundred pounds of sexy muscle will be joining me every single time.
It doesn’t matter how much he flirts, or how attracted to him I am. I’m the girl who enforces rules for a living and he’s the guy who breaks them.
Do opposites really attract?
I guess we're about to find out.
Read on for the first chapter of MANTRUM
