Accepting His Home (Banks Ink. #2)
Ember Davis
Being the only woman at Banks Ink. can be tough sometimes. The guys look at me like a little sister, which I don’t mind…for the most part. The only one who doesn’t treat me like a little sister is Zeke, thankfully, because I’ve wanted him from the moment I met him two years ago. If he treated me like a sister I don’t think I could handle it. We’re friends, which is great and all, but I want more. So much more.
I don’t know how much longer I can keep wanting him and being close to him without my heartbreaking. I’m losing hope that we will ever be more. Can I let my feelings go? Can I move on? Will he ever let me into the past he guards so fiercely? Will he ever want me the way I want him?
I need to figure out a way to keep my heart intact and our friendship. I just have no idea how to do that.
ZEKE
If anyone knew about what I did, I’d lose everything that I’ve built with my family at Banks Ink.. I can’t risk that, not even for Olivia. When I met her two years ago there was a moment where I didn’t feel the weight of my past and I could almost imagine a happy future. It was fleeting and then reality came crashing down. I’ll never escape my past. I don’t deserve it.
Beckett got me off the streets and gave me a purpose. I’ve worked hard to get to where I am now, but I’ll never deserve love; especially not from someone as amazing as Olivia. She’d look at me like a monster if she ever knew what I did. I can’t let that happen.
So, I guess friends it is. There’s just one problem: I don’t know how to let her go. I need her.
**18+. If you like alpha heroes and an insta-love story that is sweet but isn’t necessarily simple, then this is for you. This story is safe, no cheating, guaranteed HEA. It is a standalone, but it is the second in the Banks Ink. series and would be more enjoyable if you’ve already read ‘Protecting His Home’ (Banks Ink. Book 1)
Warning: This story does contain casual cannabis use, but not to worry, they live in a legalized state and are responsible members of society.**
