Maneuver

This isn't how typical fairy tales begin, but it's where mine starts…
No money, no phone, and abandoned on the streets of Chicago.


With my baby in my arms, I wander into a bar and ask to use the phone.
The bar owner, and total hottie, offers us a place to stay…no strings attached.

I'm leery at first.
Hot guy.


Down on her luck single mother.
I mean, who wouldn't be?

Lucio Gallo isn't like most men, though. He's fiercely protective, loyal, and did I mention he's covered in nothing but muscle?
Above all else, he's everything I need but never knew I wanted.
