The first time I met Alex’s mom, I knew I had to have her. But here’s the problem, I was only fourteen. And Mrs Karter was already a fully formed woman by then. Oh, and did I mention she was still married? Now I know what you’re thinking, ‘Jaydon, it’s just a stupid boyhood crush. You can’t possibly break up someone’s marriage. You don’t even know if she feels the same way.’ *insert gasp.* Sure random stranger, those are all valid points. But you know what? Screw you. I waited seven years for Mrs Karter to notice me, bent over backwards to make myself the man she needed. Trust me when I say I’ve tried to move past it. So, when I tell you, I’m done waiting. You understand there is nothing on god’s green earth that could keep me from claiming what is rightfully mine.
