About SEXIEST DAD ALIVE
Josh Bennett
It was a simple offer.
I invited Isla to rent a
room in my five thousand square foot home. Plenty of rooms and plenty of space.
But the second she moved in, I knew I was in trouble. I could handle wanting
her when there was distance between us, but once we started to play house, all
my pent up desire started knocking down walls.
That was my first mistake
of many.
The private investigator I
hired to track down my ex found her not far from where I live. I should have
locked my past behind me, but something urged me to find her. I’m glad I did.
But our union left me with a situation to be reckoned with.
When a new fire is lit and
old flames rekindle, one will have to burn out.
The decisions I’ll have to
make won’t be easy.
No matter what I choose,
my heart will break.

Excerpt:
Josh
It
took me thirty minutes to get to her house. Not hours, not days. She lived
thirty minutes from my house. Thirty freakin’ minutes. Inhaling a deep breath,
I willed myself to calm down as I released the tight grip on the steering
wheel. But panic slammed hard against my rib cage. I’d found her—well,
technically the private investigator I had hired found her. But what the hell
was I supposed to do next?
I’d
played out the scenario in my head while I drove. Knock on the door. When she
answered, tell her I heard she lived nearby and thought I’d stop by to find out
how she was doing. It all seemed simple and easy in my mind, but as I parked at
the curb of her house under a grand oak tree, nerves knotted inside my stomach.
Fuck it! I’m an idiot. Starting the
engine, I decided to leave the past behind and lock it for good, but then I
spotted a movement inside the house. I killed the engine and became a stalker.
I
jumped in my seat when my phone ringing startled me. Staring at the phone, I
eased my breathing to a steadier beat. Wondering if any one of the neighbors
spotted me loitering in the car put me on edge. Heart still thumping, I read
the text. A text from Isla usually put a grin on my face, but not at that
moment. Every single muscle tensed—I couldn’t shit if I wanted to.
Isla:
Where are you?
Heat
rushed to my face. Lie.
Me:
I’m about to head home. Where are you?
Isla:
Home. I meant your home.
Me:
It’s your home too. You live there.
Isa:
I made dinner. Thought we could eat together.
My lips
curled at her kind gesture.
Me:
Sounds great. I’ll see you in an hour.
Isla:
See ya.
An
hour. I’d have thirty minutes to drive back home and thirty minutes to say
hello and leave. Or just stare at the house. Grow some balls, Josh. What’s the harm in saying hello? Placing my hand on the door handle, I tugged a
little, but my planted legs refused to budge as my heart hammered faster with
every effort I made to get out of the car. It’s
been almost two freakin’ years since she disappeared out of your life without a
goodbye or explanation, that’s why, you idiot. She didn’t care about you when
she left, and she still doesn’t give a fuck. Get the fuck out of there.
Five
minutes rolled by. Ten … fifteen … twenty. I had to go soon. Clenching my
teeth, I shoved myself out of the car and forced my feet to the front door
before I chickened out again. As I passed by the window, I caught a glimpse of
Shelly, unclear but definitely her.
Her back
was toward me, but I remembered her face perfectly. How could I ever forget my
first love? My first heartbreak. That woman made my heart expand to the
fullest, only to burst it with her lies.
Her
blonde hair, shorter than before, zapped me back to our past, and my heart
raced as I remembered all the good and bad we shared. And the scent of the
perfume she had worn every day—Poison, how fitting—whiffed through my nostrils
and pulled up old memories. The pain of her absence started to chip away the
wall I had built and started to crawl into my heart.
She bent
out of my line of sight. The sun dipping to end the day reflected on the window
and blinded me. What she held in her arms when the glare faded, or I should say
whom she held in her arms, stopped me in my tracks. I stared in shock and
confusion. My heart lurched in my throat. The tightness trapped all the oxygen
in my lungs, and I couldn’t breathe.
What
the fuck? A baby? Her baby? The baby couldn’t be more than a year. Doing the
math … ten months of pregnancy, plus a year or less for the baby’s age, equaled
two years. About two years ago, she disappeared from my life. Was the baby
mine? Or did she cheat on me? Anger flared, and the rage that still lived in
the pit of my stomach resurfaced. I’d always suspected she ran off with another
man. Maybe she did cheat and got pregnant. Perhaps she didn’t have the guts to
tell me, so she ran. Things didn’t add up.
I pulled
back before she saw me, and I rushed to the safety nest of my car. I became
that boy with a shattered heart again as I shrank down in my seat to soak it
all in. But what if the baby was mine? What if she lied to me? Would she?
I should
have left my past behind. But once I located Pandora’s box, I had to open it.
It would eat at me day and night if I never knew the truth. Oh, fuck me. Okay.
I had to gather myself, figure out how to find the truth. But not that day.
With my poker face on, I drove out of there as fast as I could.

About SEXIEST MAN ALIVE (Knight Fashion Book 1)
Nathan
Cross is a struggling actor waiting tables at a local restaurant to make ends
meet while he attends endless auditions. Though his hopeful career moves at a
slow pace, Olivia is the strength and sunshine in his life… until she leaves
him. One day, he is offered a contract with a modeling agent, leading him to
work for Knight Fashion Magazine—a dream job he never imagined would become a
reality.
Olivia
swore she would always put her career first and that’s precisely what she did
when she left Nathan. Having a deadbeat dad and watching her mom work two jobs
to make ends meet have been her driving force. When she is offered a modeling
career, she drops everything—even the love of her life—and moves to New York.
Though Nathan and Olivia try to steer clear of one another, working for the
same fashion magazine causes their paths to cross again and old emotions are
awakened.
Can
Nathan forgive Olivia or will he take the next step with the woman he is
currently dating? Will Olivia do everything she can to break them apart? Or
will she choose her career over her heart… again?
