Between Commitment and Betrayal (Hardy Billionaire Brothers, #1)

by Shain Rose

He slid another diamond on my finger. It looked like an engagement one that was a bigger rock than I’d ever seen. “You’re mine. I just need the wedding to let the world know it too.”

“I’ll do it for her and the kids. They need to see I still got it even if Everly’s brought me to my knees a time or two in front of them.” “Really? You spar with her?” “The first time I met her, she probably could have knocked me out. She stole my pride that day.” He smirked. “Then she stole my heart a few months later.”

“So, Evie, you couldn’t wear the jersey I gave you?” He sneered at me because the man was trying to rile Declan. And he knew exactly how to do it. “Where is it?” “I fucked her out of it the night you gave it to her, and now it’s in the trash where it belongs,” Declan growled as he walked up and shoved Wes before pulling himself into the stands and then he hauled me in close.

Declan Hardy wasn’t simply going to be the perfect husband for me, he was the perfect family man, and was going to be the perfect father. Even when he was over-the-top.

Our marriage may have been arranged at first, but he proved to the world down there that day that he’d deliver hell to anyone who disrespected what and who he loved. He loved the game. He loved his family. He loved his empire. And he loved me. Probably about as much as I loved him.
