Francesca
“Ces. Ces, baby, are you all right?”
I blinked ferociously, trying to get the flashes out of my eyes, along
with the sudden sting of tears. My ears rang with strangers calling my name,
capped with the roar of engines and constant clicks.
Or not my name, exactly. Only one person called me that. Ces,
pronounced “Chess.” A shortened version of my full, formal name. Francesca
Zola. Which seemed to roll off only one man’s tongue. Someone with a deep
voice. And blue eyes. And an English accent.
That exact voice pulled me from an oblivion laced with too many other
voices to distinguish. This one, though, had a deliciously deep accent born in
South London. This one growled through my dreams and beyond.
That’s right, I was with Xavier Parker. All six feet, five inches of
gorgeous, brooding man who took my virginity and gave me the greatest
piece of my life: my daughter.
To some, it would have been a fairy tale. And in some ways, it did feel
that way. What else would you call it if you’d run into your child’s father not
quite six months ago on a wintry night and close to five years since you’d
seen him last?
And then held him at arm’s length for months afterward, trying to
determine whether this seemingly cold, brazen man was, in fact, fit to be a
father?
And then discovered that said man wasn’t simply a chef and restauranteur
but, in fact, a member of the British peerage, something of a prodigal duke?
And then fell completely in love with him anyway, secrets and all?
Xavier’s harsh exterior had melted into a more loving and kind man than
I’d thought possible—especially when it came to Sofia, our daughter. And
then, by some miracle, he’d fallen in love with me too, despite the secret I’d
kept, thinking it in my own best interest.
Fate intervened, so they say. And after four years of life as a single mom,
I’d not only found my child’s father but also the love of my life.
Talk about luck.
Now I was here. In England, a land I’d visited through countless novels,
seen through the eyes of too many heroines. I’d pretended to be Elinor
Dashwood or Elizabeth Bennett in my dreams since I was a kid. But here I
was, in the arms of my love like a real-life British romance heroine.
Or not quite.
