Chapter One

Sheri

Five years after my divorce and my best friend talked me into trying online dating. Within the first few weeks I had meet two men that piqued my interest, both former military and with the same first name. One of them, I really didn’t like, the other I did. However, after months on the phone and two dates, he wasn’t looking for a relationship yet. Then came along Dion and at the end of ten months I had the worse taste in my mouth about online dating because of Dion.

We matched amid the vast sea of profiles, and his charm, witty banter, and shared interests quickly drew me in. Those initial conversations were like a captivating prologue, laying the foundation for what I hoped would be a beautiful love story. He owned his own business, and he was a Dom. He was everything I had been looking for and prayed for in a man. God had given me the man I prayed for. God gave me my completion and my better half.

The first date, a pivotal moment in any love story, was filled with anticipation and excitement. We chose a charming local coffee shop, our shared laughter resonating through the cozy atmosphere. Dion’s presence felt warm and comforting, and for a while, it seemed like the plot was unfolding exactly as I had envisioned.

The months that followed were a blend of highs and lows, much like the rising action of a novel. We celebrated milestones, exchanged thoughtful gifts, and navigated through disagreements that strengthened our bond. Yet, beneath the surface, subtle cracks were forming in the narrative of our relationship. He had talked to my girls on the phone, introduced himself, told them he was going to be their new stepdad, and made family trips with us. It was immediate love. We knew God had given us both to each other. I started working for him in his business to help him and he was in turn, helping me build mine. We had planned our futures out. We were building and growing together.

We talked on the phone all day every day. We spent time working side by side in
