Lake Pierre Yes, I’m back again, but this time I come in peace and with all the good sense God gave me. Well…at least most of it. When I put my eyes on the one and only Magic Barnes, I think good sense evaporated from my body. Who can blame me though? That woman is truly God’s gift to Earth, and now I have to make her see that she’s God’s gift to me, too! Magic Barnes Love? Yuck. Lake Pierre? EEEEEYUCKKKK! Hard pass, no thank you. His repertoire of women was longer than the Great Wall of China, so I had zero interest in him. At least, I thought I wasn’t interested. One damn date changed all of that, and I hated it, so I was determined to steer clear of him at all costs. Magic is dodging feelings like bullets while Lake is trying to prove he’s not the walking red flag their city has painted him out to be. Between their nosey families, unexpected soft moments shared between the two, and Lake insistent on putting a ring on her finger, these two just might fall into something real.
