Gentry Rules by Cora Brent

ADDIE
Justin Gentry had always been my best friend and I had always been in love with him.
When our friendship imploded, I was shattered.
Which was how I wound up in the arms of his enemy.
Yet I refuse to have regrets because then I wouldn’t have my daughter.
I’ll hold my head up no matter what and nothing will stop me from giving my little girl the life she deserves.
I thought the last thing I needed to deal with is the return of the heavily inked Marine who was my biggest heartbreak.
But with my daughter in danger, I have little choice but to accept his help.
These days Justin is not only back in town but he’s living in my house, gallantly pretending to be my boyfriend in order to keep us safe.
I told myself I wouldn’t make the same mistake twice.
After all, I should have learned my lesson about the consequences of falling for a Gentry boy.
But the heart doesn’t always listen to reason.
And it seems I’m ready to risk it all again.

JUSTIN
There’s no escaping my last name, not in this town.
Some of us Gentry boys have been villains.
The rest of us choose a different path.
Sometimes it’s a tough legacy and I’ve made my own mistakes.
However, six years in the Marines couldn’t make me forget Astrid Delgado.
Wherever I go, Addie has stayed on my mind.
Now the shy best friend I once took for granted has become a stunning woman I can’t look away from.
And I’ll do whatever it takes to protect Addie and her little girl.
No matter the cost, I’m willing to break every rule there is.
Until she’s safe.
And until she’s mine.
