The Boy Next Door

by Natasha L. Black

What in the world did I do deserve this?

The boy next door doesn’t let me sleep.

And not just because he's loud…

Jayson is a rockstar.

He’s as skilled as he is hot.

I never thought I’d be attracted to an alpha jerk like him.

But Jayson is all I ever think about.

I mean, what choice do I have, really?

We're next door neighbors for goodness sake.

He’s always on my mind (and in my ears).

And now…

I’m carrying a piece of him.

I’m carrying his baby.

No, he can’t find out.

And no, I’m not saying a word about it to him.

Jayson and I are poles apart.

Our lives couldn’t be more different.

He should be on the road, leaving me behind.

Leaving my secret behind.

And me?

I should start preparing to mend my heart.

To raise a baby that will forever remind me of him.
