Martino Galeazzi had given me the most precious gift when he'd gotten me pregnant five years ago, but he'd ripped my heart out at the same time. Having him back in my life wasn't something I had been prepared for. Trust didn't come easily to me, not even when someone starts messing with my life. Martino had let me down once before. No matter how much I desired him, could I trust that he would keep the promises he kept making or was he going to rip my heart out again and take my son? I took me five years to realize how badly I'd messed up with Ryan Jones and to accept that he might be the one man who wasn't after me for my money. Now, I had a lot to make up for. Earning his trust again and getting him to forgive me meant I needed to man up and admit what I had done. It wasn't easy admitting I'd become so jaded that I hurt the man and almost lost my chance at the family I dreamed of. Now that Ryan and my son were back in my life, there wasn't anything I wouldn't do for them, even die protecting them. We had that one time together, but I wanted more. I wanted forever.
