His Choice — Leah Sharelle

KOJAKAt 10, my world was ripped out from beneath my feet. Nothing made sense anymore. Suddenly, I went from being a happy kid to just downright pissed off. I didn't need anything except my dad, sisters and the woman I considered my mother, Rainn. Despite the anger that boiled below the surface, I set out to achieve my goals—being accepted into the AFP and following my father's footsteps in wearing a Wounded Souls patch.  Life was pretty good; I moved up the ranks to VP of the new Souls chapter and left behind the badge I'd worked so hard for previously.Then Nova happened, and life got a little complicated. And just like that … I wanted something so desperately, I was willing to put my heart and pride on the line.I wanted my wife to love me.NOVAMy life took a turn that sent my world careening in the wrong direction. After losing our parents in separate accidents, years apart. My sisters and I learned to lean on each other. Our father had checked out years before he was killed, so lost in his grief from losing his wife. Chevy, Shelby and I ploughed through life with only each other to depend on—well, we had James too. My father's former partner, James, offered us stability, support, and a way for me to keep my family together and thrive.With James's help, I achieved financial independence and a growing status in the small business world. Finally, life was getting back on track, then I went and did something so incredibly stupid.I thought it would be a good idea to go and fall in love with my husband.Now all I had to do was stay alive long enough to find out if he loved me too.Easier said than done when a dangerous, crazy loon put a target on my back.
