The Widower’s Brother-In-Law
(previously titled Payback by Beth Christopher)
Michael
Dean was supposed to be mine.
But he ended up with my sister, and then she died.
He’s my connection to my niece, but there’s so much anger and blame between us now.
Around other people, we get along for the greater good. When it’s only the two of us though?
Well, I’m enjoying making him pay.
If only I could ignore the part of me that never stopped wanting him.
Dean
Everything I do is for my daughter. Everything. Including working as a male escort to support us both.
I may be a college dropout, but as a former athlete I can make good money from my body, and I can give my little girl the life I didn’t have.
There’s one big problem, and that problem is my daughter’s uncle. Michael hates me. He has every reason to. His sister, my kid’s mom, is gone because of me.
But I can’t raise this kid alone. Ella needs to be safe. She needs her uncle. We both do.
So, I’ll do anything it takes to keep him close. Anything to protect her.
Anything.
