  ## “You slept with me?  
  Without asking me if it was okay?”
  
  Brenna didn’t know whether to be outraged or disappointed that she didn’t
  remember how it felt to have that hard body of his stretched out beside her.
  
  “You woke me up whimpering in your sleep. The only way I could quiet you so I
  could get some sleep was to cuddle you.” He said “cuddle” as if the very idea
  was repugnant….
  
  Before she could respond, he marched into the bathroom and slammed the door
  shut.

  “Intriguing and unique…compelling characters who all deserve their own
  stories, so hopefully this is just the beginning.”
