Wait For Me
by K.L. Grayson
Blurb:
My life is a mess. Literally.
Iโm a single dad, which means If Iโm not cleaning up spilled milk or changing a diaper, Iโm pulling gum from my daughterโs hair. I barely have enough time to eatโlet alone sleep.
And women? Forget about it. That ship sailed two years ago along with my ex-wife. My brother says I need to get laid. I say, screw that. Iโm content with my life, until pop star Nora Hayes walks through my best friendโs front door and flips my world upside down.
Sheโs beautiful, famous, and completely off limits.
My life is a headline waiting to happen. Literally.
It all started with fishnet stockings and ended with a baseball bat to boyfriendโs Porsche, putting me on the front page of every newspaper and gossip magazine in the country.
My life is spiraling out of control and Iโm ready to make some serious changes. What Iโm not ready for is a hunky man to strut his jean clad tush into my life. Grayson Calhoun is as rugged as he is sweet. Heโs also way in over his head with his kids, and I have an offer Iโm hoping he canโt refuse.
What starts as an agreement, turns to a friendship, and quickly escalates to stolen kisses and heated nights spent wrapped in each otherโs arms. What we have is temporary. I promise him that I wonโt fall in love.
But I make that promise already knowing itโs a lie.

Excerpt:
What is all of this?โ she asks, flipping through the pages of my chicken scratch.
โIdeas from Marnie.โ
โWhoโs Marnie?โ
โThe manager I spoke with. Keep up, Jessa.โ
โSorry. Tell me about her.โ
โThere isnโt much to tell. She was nice. We talked about what went wrong with Becky, where my career has been, and the direction I want to take it. And get this, she outlined a plan for making it happen. We video conferenced for almost three hours, and Iโm really impressed with her.โ
โSo, what happens now?โ
โI told her Iโm not ready to go back to LA, and she agreed. Iโm going to spend the summer working on some of my own songs for the next album. Sheโs going to talk with the music execs and make sure theyโre on the same page as us.โ
โAnd if theyโre not?โ
โThen weโll go somewhere else. They arenโt the only label in town. Anyway, Marnie thinks itโs a good idea to lay low after what happened with Toddโlet the media interest die down while she works on putting our plan in motion, and when I go to Toddโs premiere, Marnie and I will meet in person.โ
โYou still have to go to Toddโs premiere?โ
I groan and drop onto the bed beside Jessa. โUnfortunately.โ
โThat sucks.โ
โIt is what it is. I shouldnโt have bashed the hell out of his Porsche or stolen his BMW, although it felt great. Lesson learned. Next time Iโll beat up the guy, not the car.โ
โLetโs hope there isnโt a next time. I thought your brother was going to lose his mind when you called and told us what happened. He was ready to hop a plane and hunt Todd down.โ
I smile at the thought. Nick isnโt a fighter, but I know heโd go head to head if it meant protecting Jessa or me. โThank you again for letting me crash here.โ
โStop thanking us. Youโre family. This is your home too.โ
I rest my hand on hers and squeeze it gently. โLove you, Jessa.โ
โI hate to break up the chick fest,โ Nick says, appearing in the doorway, โbut Iโm starving.โ
โWhat are you doing home from work?โ I ask.
โDidnโt you hear me? Iโm starving. I was hoping one of you would make me lunch.โ
I give Jessa a nudge. โHeโs your husband.โ
Nick holds out his hand and pulls Jessa into his arms. The way they look at each other, with stars in their eyes, is absolutely adorable, and also a little disgusting.
They kiss, and Jessa melts. I want what they have.
When Nick deepens the kiss, I throw a pillow at their heads.
โCan you take that into another room, please?โ
The two lovebirds laugh and stumble out, but the giggling doesnโt stop. I hear another door shut and then a thump, followed by a moan. I cover my ears and flop back on the bed.
This is going to be a long summer.
