Winnie thinks she has the perfect life. Two beautiful, healthy children. A police officer husband. A job that she loves. Oh, and let’s not forget that she’s a nationally ranked marathon runner. Fast forward six months, and her perfect life has imploded. Winnie finds herself in a completely new world, and this new world is a brutal bitch. In this new life of hers, her husband is gone. He realizes, at the worst possible time, that he’s no longer in love with her. He’s in love with her best friend. So he leaves, and doesn’t look back. Her sixteen-year-old daughter is in trouble with the law, and she’s barely making ends meet thanks to losing the job that was keeping her and her tiny family afloat. Then, the last thing that could make it all bearable, her running, is ripped out from under her, too. Thanks to a spinal stroke that leaves her unable to walk, let alone run, she’s having to relearn how to do the simplest of tasks—such as putting on her own pants. She’s at the lowest of lows, and the last thing she wants is a sexy, bearded, motorcycle riding alpha to tell her how to live her life. But Steel Cross never asks her what she wants. *** The moment Steel Cross sees Winnie’s daughter steal some shoes for her younger brother, he knows he’s in trouble. He’s a sucker for misunderstood teens. After all, he was once one himself. He knows he can’t just walk away, and the moment he sees that troubled teen’s mother, he doesn’t just know it, he feels it. Down to the very bottom of his soul. With his share of hard knocks, he knows that he shouldn’t step in and make his move on a fellow police officer’s ex. There’s a code, after all, yet he just can’t seem to help himself. He’s done being the good guy. Sometimes he just wants to be bad. And Winnie makes him realize that being bad is still kind of good. As long as you’re with the right person.

First of all lets just take a moment to thank the cover model's mama & daddy for giving us such a fine specimen to picture as Big Papa.

Now onto the book.

Winnie had it all. The house, the police officer husband, two amazing kids only it was a lie.

Now a single mother to two children, shunned by most because of her ex's role in the PD people want to believe his lies over her truths, but she holds her head up and keeps moving, busting her ass to take care of her kids. 

She has medical issues that hinder her progress at making a new life for her family, as well as an ex who thinks he can take what isn't his.

Steel aka Big Papa. 

I sigh as I say his name, he's just that good.

Neighbor to Winnie, boss of her ex, savior to both Winnie and he daughter Conleigh, the man has a heart of gold but also the ability to be one mean SOB when necessary.

An did I mention the whole silver fox thing? Yea older, silver, sexy as hell, just how I like em!

I loved everything about this book, well maybe not the ex or his homewrecker but other than them this was one of my absolute favorite Lani Lynn Vale books ever.

I’m a married mother of three. My kids are all under 8, so I can assure you that they are a handful. I’ve been with my paramedic husband now for ten years, and we’ve produced three offspring that are nothing like us. I live in the greatest state in the world, Texas.
