Warlock: Love didn't stop me from killing my ex when I had to -- wasn't a choice I made lightly, but more lives than hers were on the line. Black Reign gave me the second chance I didn't deserve, and never again would I put a woman above my club.
Then along comes this little vagabond who claims my mother left me to her in her will. Is that even possible? And to top it off, it looks like my mother pulled some strings and got us married. Without my consent. Still, I think I'd rather be married to the crazy woman my mother foisted off on me than play Santa at the club's annual Christmas party. Yeah. Not a role I'm made for.
Hope: Christmas magic being what it is, maybe I can get my fondest wish this year. To say Warlock isn't happy to find out he's married to me is the biggest understatement in the history of understatements. Still doesn't make me want my fantasy lover any less.
Warlock represents everything I've ever wanted in life. But the fact that I achieved my dreams through more manipulation -- even if it wasn't of my doing -- means I have to give him up. But first, Warlock has to see beyond his past and embrace a future he never wanted.
