Ask Me Later is short story prequel to No Commitment. When Tyler Caldwell steps off the tour bus, I don’t recognize the boy I worked with a decade ago. He’s grown from a boy to a man. A hot, lean, sexy rock star of a man. A fierce attraction simmers between us, but my ex took both my dog and my confidence in the break-up. Will this be my night with a rock star?

No commitment. That was my deal with Tyler from the start, at least until his tour was over and we could be together. But thirty days filming a reality show here, two years overseas with his band there... Is it really any wonder why I didn’t tell him about the baby? He comes looking for me once he’s back in the country, but he runs into the man I married instead. Eventually I agree to meet him so I can put the past truly behind me. When I see him, though, every feeling I held inside comes rushing back. My husband and I vowed to raise this baby together. But as I find myself drifting away from the husband who stole my job and gravitating toward the rock star who stole my heart, I realize he deserves the truth. I just have no idea how this rock star who doesn’t make commitments is going to react to the fact that he’s a father.

The screaming fans in the crowd are proof the world loves Brett Pitzer, but I hate him. Those women lusting after him as he bangs on his drums have this fantasy of one night with him. He granted that dream to my sister, except he left her with a baby to raise on her own. She couldn’t tell him about their boy, but with her life on the line the same night he’s back in town, I have no choice. It’ll be an uphill battle trying to get in touch with this partying rock star who’s nothing like me, but after tragedy strikes, he’s the only biological parent my nephew has left. I’ll do whatever it takes to protect the baby and give him the future he deserves, even if it means traveling on a tour bus with a man I can’t stand so I can be a nanny to his son. After all, I’m all my nephew knows, and he’s the only chance I have left.

The last time I saw the only woman I’ve ever loved, we stood in a church as I tried to stop her from walking down the aisle toward the wrong man. I failed. In the four years that have passed, she had his kid while I went on to achieve the sort of success with my band that we never could have dreamed. I’ve sampled enough of the female population to realize no one will ever measure up to the woman who holds my heart, but she’s a mom now, and I’m unsuitable for kids. They’ve built their life far enough away from me, but they’re coming to California. They want to see me. My first response? No comment. The fire that always burned between us still rages when they show up, but I should really stay away. After all, she didn’t just marry some random guy. She married my brother.
