The one with the tattooed muscles, naughty blue eyes, and dimpled, James-Dean grin. It all started with a series of bad decisions.  First was flirting with a dangerous criminal to rescue a little girl I didn’t even know.

They’re perky in the shower, on the kitchen table, against the front door… But when Bad Decision #1 tracks me down (thanks to Bad Decision #2), my outlaw husband turns Alpha Pr...
