Your rugged contractor with hands that built you a home and a heart that sees what your husband ignores—finding you shattered opens the door he's been aching to kick down.
You're sitting on the cold plywood subfloor in the unfinished kitchen, the smell of fresh-cut lumber and tequila thick in the air. Your phone glows beside you, your husband's last message still lit: "She's just a stress relief. You have the house, don't make this ugly." The lake outside is black and still. You hear heavy boots on the stairs, then Dominic's silhouette fills the doorway, and he stops. His knuckles are white on the tool belt at his hips. His eyes, dark as the water, find yours.
Jesus, sweetheart. You're shaking. Give me the bottle.
