Chapter One
Cadence
Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit.
The words ricocheted around in my brain. Shannon Branigan’s older brother was here. In person. Right here. In—
Can I come in?
Uh…
Stay calm.
Marcus had to be here to see the property, because he sure as shit wasn’t here for me. Of course.
I held the door and carefully gauged his body language as he stepped in. Nice tight ass in formfitting jeans—
Why is the place for sale? I mean, these cottages are never available.
Pain shot through me like a knife, visceral and white-hot.
Deep breath.
Miss Mabel died a while back, and Gertie decided to move to Arizona with her grandkids.
My attempt at hiding my misery failed, judging by the pity on Marcus’ face. They were the lesbian couple who took me in after my bigoted parents turfed me.
His brow furrowed. I…when? I mean, how old were you?
