<P>This wasn't supposed to be my life.</P><P>One phone call was all it took to bring me back to the small town I had grown up in. Everything had changed and staying away was no longer an option.</P><P>Four and a half years later I was a widowed single father still here still trying to pick up the pieces. We were doing just fine on our own my little girl and me.</P><P>At least we were until Camryn Parker stumbled into our lives. The woman was like a tornado after a hurricane; she was the storm I never saw approaching. Behind her beauty and sarcastic wit she was just as broken as I pretended not to be. As hard as I tried to resist it was impossible not to fall in love with her.</P><P>In the end it took nearly losing it all for me to realize everything I never wanted was exactly what I needed.</P>
