M. Piper

I've known one thing to be true all of my adult life. Millie is my girl. She’s been the sunshine on every cloudy day of mine since the day we met in the back of that truck in high school. People thought we were insane marrying so young. They said we’d never make it....

Mackenzie Mueller doesn't take me seriously. She says I'm an alcoholic. I say I'm living in the moment. She says I need to be more serious. I say I tried that, and it broke my heart. She says I'm the best she ever had...I tend to agree. She says we're not good together. She's lying. After losing the love of my life before my 20th birthday, I was sure I'd never love again. I've spent the past five years living like it's my last day on earth. Girls, booze, and as much family time as possible filled my weeks. But mostly the booze.... Then, Mackenzie walked into my life and suddenly I have purpose again. But she's convinced I'm not in it for the long haul.

I’m Lincoln West. Single father extraordinaire to the coolest kid on the face of the earth. At 22, I’ve embraced my fate as a lifetime member of the uncool single-dad club. Until I meet Wren. That’s when everything changes....

You know what sucks? Cancer. Cancer sucks. Especially when it takes a young life. Like the life of my five year old son. You want to know what I have to say about that? Nothing....

They were my best friends, but they made my dating life difficult. I probably didn't help it either, picking only the losers that broke my heart more times than I'd like to admit. So I pulled the trigger two years ago and left home for a bigger and better life where I wasn't being shadowed by all my past mistakes. I thought that I'd get out and do something with my life.

She walked away from us when she needed me most. I should have stopped her. I should have begged her to stay. But I didn’t. I let her believe I thought she was crazy....

My name's Taylor Black and gaining my trust doesn't come easy when you're in my shoes. A good-looking 21-year-old pro baseball pitcher in his hometown? Girls flock to me but for two things only. Sex. And money. Well, flocked....

She saw right through me. Every time the girl looked at me it was like she knew exactly what I was thinking. And why I was thinking it. It’s the why part that bothered me the most. I never wanted a girl like Sienna in my life....
