\nYou’re It Synopsis:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Our little family has been together for four years, and life has been good, considering my track record. But In the blink of an eye, my ease was suddenly gone when I heard his terrifying words. I knew from the look on Tango\u2019s face and the way he avoided my gaze\u2014all hell was about to break loose. Now it seems like the dangers I spent years desperately avoiding are starting to threaten my happily ever after.<\/p>\n

Maybe it\u2019s because I let my guard down. Or maybe it\u2019s because I was starting to trust again. But I can\u2019t even trust the people closest to me, and now I remember why.<\/p>\n

Screw with me, that\u2019s one thing. Screw with my family, and we\u2019ve got a problem\u2026<\/p>\n

You’re It Excerpt:<\/p>\n

PROLOGUE<\/strong><\/p>\n

CALI <\/strong><\/p>\n

I KNOW THIS MAN well enough to know when something\u2019s up. He doesn\u2019t skip a meal. He generally refuses to miss bedtime stories with our daughter, and he never leaves the house without a word\u2014unless something is wrong.<\/p>\n

Something\u2019s wrong.<\/p>\n

I poke my head into the garage and squeeze through the dozens of boxes near the doorway. I hear grunting, heavy breathing and the sound of metal clinking against metal\u2014I can smell the sweat from here.<\/p>\n

Making my way out of the boxes, I lean against a pillar and fold my arms over my chest in hopes of an explanation\u2026 an excuse\u2026 anything.<\/p>\n

The weights thud against the cement and Tango reaches across the bench for his rag, which he drags across his forehead, slowly, purposely avoiding my cold stare. \u201cIs Tyler already asleep?\u201d he asks before removing the rag from his eyes.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter four books and counting two-hundred sheep, yes, she\u2019s asleep.\u201d I move in closer, arching a brow, giving him the look I know he\u2019s trying desperately to ignore. \u201cWhat is it?\u201d<\/p>\n

He drops the rag and repositions his weights against the wall, lining them up meticulously, giving himself a little more time to answer my simple question. \u201cJust working out, baby.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t \u2018baby\u2019 me. You only pump hundreds when something\u2019s up.\u201d<\/p>\n

He takes a couple of deep breaths and looks at me with his shamrock green eyes, giving me the Bambi stare, as if I\u2019m going to melt from his loving gaze. It usually works, but I need to be strong tonight. Something is wrong. I know it. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing to be concerned about.\u201d He cups his hand around my cheek, lifting my chin to look at him. \u201cRemember, I\u2019ll tell you if you have a reason to worry.\u201d<\/p>\n
