The loss of my sister was a devastating blow to my family. Becoming Miles’s guardian completely threw my life off its axis. In a huge way it healed me and gave me a new purpose. Thanks to him, I began to heal, and I started working through my trauma in the military. Miles became my son the second our eyes locked as I held him in my arms the first night I brought him home. It’s as though we were making a promise to always love and take care of each other.

I’ve done my very best to keep up my end of the bargain. Raising Miles hasn’t exactly been a walk in the park. No; it’s been more like the challenge of a lifetime. It has also been the most rewarding thing I’ve ever been a part of. Miles became my whole world. It’s not how I’d ever imagined starting my own family, but it was exactly what I needed. Now, I’m beginning to feel like this is the perfect time to start expanding our little duo. I just need to get my gorgeous, kind-hearted angel on board.

First, she needs to get comfortable and feel happy here so she will want to stay for good. I’m going to do everything in my power to make that happen. Having her leave might destroy me. I can’t stand thinking about spending another day living without her. It’s not going to be easy to get her to fall for me. I can tell she has walls surrounding her heart. It doesn’t matter how long it takes or how hard it is, though. Eventually, I will bust through those walls and make her mine.

I thought I was satisfied with my life, but now I know I was only fooling myself. My days became boring when Miles started school. I have daily board meetings, but they don’t take much of my time or my attention. They don’t challenge me or make me feel like I’m doing anything substantial. Emmy’s giving nature has motivated me to put more work into my plans for starting a foundation.

My time in the military made me appreciate what I have. I suppose that’s why I’ve ignored the void in my life for so long.

It’s been years since I’ve dated. I’ve avoided it since I found out my ex-fiancé, Anna, was cheating on me with her acting coach while I was deployed. She kept the affair hidden from me for over a year, never showing any signs of guilt. I don’t know how a person could do something like that to someone else. Ever since I dodged that bullet, I haven’t been interested in any of the women I’ve met. Until Emmy. The feelings I have for her are big and unfamiliar and they should scare me. Instead, I feel at peace with her by my side.

Fourteen years of service prepared me for a lot of things in life, but nothing could have prepared me to meet my angel. Deep down I always knew something was missing, and now I’ve found it.
