Chapter Thirty-One

My lingering fear of Jessica’s ex resurfacing had vanished. I felt relieved enough to begin writing again. For several days I sat at my computer and stared blankly at the screen. I needed to start a new book and wasn’t certain of who my Hero and heroine might be.

Then, it came to me. I would write a book about a man who was protective. A man who was exposed to a woman that was living under the abusive thumb of her lover. The Hero would meet her and then walk away. She would then develop the courage to leave her ex, no differently than Jessica did.

Two years later, by happenstance, the Hero would meet her again. Her ex would resurface, and the Hero’s friend would step in.

In two weeks the book was complete. The Hero was, at least in my opinion, a facsimile of me. The heroine, in many respects, was Jess.

The Hero was a loner, a boxer, and a biker. He had yet to be beaten in his professional career. I named the book Undefeated. It, too, had ended on a happy for now note, with the intention of writing at least two more books to complete the series.

Days after publishing the book, I knew I’d written something very special. It was difficult to argue. The book was being discussed by readers and reviewers all over the internet. Before the book had been out a week, it hit number one in erotic romance, and remained there for roughly a week.

My father called one afternoon mid-week, out of the blue. I answered the phone, knowing a congratulatory call was his intention.

“Damned good boxing scenes, Son,” he said.

“Excuse me?”

“The boxing scenes. They were breathtaking. Hard to believe you wrote those. Did some research, did you?”

“Quite a bit,” I responded. “Read a few books on how to train boxers and skimmed a few about managing them.”

“Well, it shows. That book was one good son-of-a-bitch.”

It then dawned on me that he’d read the book.

“Damn it, Pop. I asked you not to read those books.”

“No, you asked me not to read that Baby Girl shit.”

“It’s not shit.”

“Well, that’s what you asked me not to read. You failed to tell me not to read this one. Amazon recommended it, so I bought it. Glad I did,” he said. “You going to write a follow-up for this book?”

“I’ll see how it goes.”

“Write the next one about Ripton. I’m telling you, they’ll eat it up. He’s funny, he’s protective, and he’s built like a brick shithouse. The women will love him.”

“They might not love him as much as you do.”

“I think you might be surprised.”

“I suppose time will tell,” I responded.

“I’m telling ya, I loved that scene with him and that fucktard Josh. Speaking of that, your buddies didn’t chop that fellas fingers off, did they?”

“I don’t know what happened,” I replied. “They won’t tell me.”

“Probably best,” he said. “Man can’t get in trouble for what he doesn’t know.”

“I suppose.”

“I like that gal,” he said. “A whole hell of a lot.
