I’ve loved Sawyer before I knew what it meant. A ten-year-old girl with a crush on the young man next door who always protected me. He was my hero until he pushed me away and left me to grow up without him while he was out chasing his dreams and women.
She was off-limits and far too young for me. I wasn’t meant to want her the way I did. After all, I spent years protecting her until we moved away and made my fortune. Now that she’s an adult, I can’t let anyone else have her because little Jilly Bean was always meant to be mine.
