I grew up without a mother, and somewhere along the way, I fell for Liana Flores—Julian Windsor's mom. I wanted her to notice me, so I went after Julian. I flirted, I pushed, I made myself impossible to ignore. It worked. Julian fell for me hard. The second I found out I was pregnant, I rushed to Liana like I'd won some kind of prize. "Liana, look. We're having a baby." I grabbed her hands, breathless. "You can marry Julian off to whoever you want now. You and me, we can finally be together." She stared at me like I'd just told her the sky was green. Right. She had no idea I was in love with her. I turned around, and there was Julian. He was standing in the doorway with his rosary beads wrapped around his fingers, and his eyes were locked on me. The good news? Liana finally believed I wasn't with her son for his money. The bad news? Julian locked me up and threw away the key.
