Now having my full attention, I find Aspen in depths of trouble only my brotherhood can help her and her daughter escape.


I’ll be her prick, and she’ll be the pain in the ass I never wanted. I didn’t need her to fix me, I just wanted her to sit with me in the dark and accept that neither of us was meant to be normal. But can she?
