“Why would you ask that?”
I narrowed my eyes trying to read her. I didn’t know what the hell was going on here but I was sure that my night wasn’t over. I was starting to hate everyone with the last name Bianci.
“Where’s Lauren?” I asked, crossing my arms against my chest. Her eyes zeroed in on my cut and I watched her throat as she swallowed.
“Who are you?” She questioned.
“I’m a friend of her brother’s,” I lied because Anthony was more of an enemy of mine at this point. She looked nervous and I didn’t know if it was because I was a strange guy standing in her bedroom or because she was hiding something. I lifted the skull cap from my head and ran my fingers roughly through my hair.
“Look, if Lauren’s in some kind of trouble…” I started but my words trailed off the moment she stood from her bed and peeked her head out the door. She closed it softly and turned around.
“Lauren’s been lying to her mother,” she started.
I fitted the hat back onto my head and sighed. More Bianci bullshit was headed my way.
“Maria thinks Lauren is an intern at a hospital, a requirement for her nursing degree, but, the thing is she kind of quit the program,” she continued, suffering from a severe case of diarrhea of the mouth.
I lifted an eyebrow. Mama Leone was going to blow a gasket.
“So if she’s not playing Florence Nightingale then where is she?” I ground out.
Silence.
Fuck my life. I stalked towards Mia, watching as she raised an eyebrow and walked backwards until her back slammed against the door.
“Ouch,” she muttered.
I narrowed my eyes, bracing one hand flat against the door over her head and leaned close to her.
“Where is she?” I repeated.
“She’s working at a bar in town, near campus,” she said, stepping around me and walked towards her desk, ripping a piece of paper off a pad and scribbling something on it. “Here’s the address. She’s not answering the phone so—you need to go get her before Maria starts asking questions.”
“You’re kidding right?” Does the leather and tattoos not scare anyone anymore these days? These people are walking all over me like I’m some kind of jerkoff.
“I don’t even know what she looks like,” I grunted, staring down at the scribbled address wondering what kind of bar the Pink Pussy Cat and what the fuck I did in life to deserve this shit.
Mia looked at me for a moment before turning around and grabbing a picture frame off her dresser. She held up the framed photo of her and what I assumed was Lauren. I dropped my eyes to the picture of the two girls, my eyes zeroing in on Lauren.
Big crystal blue eyes, framed by thick black rimmed glasses, stared back at me. She had a killer smile, perfectly straight white teeth, framed by full pink lips and a cute tongue since she was sticking it out the side of her mouth. Her black hair framed her face in waves, a stark contrast to her bright blue eyes. She was pretty, hot even, if you’re into the girl next door type. Or nurses. I wouldn’t mind being her patient.
I lifted my eyes back to Mia’s and handed her back her photograph before turning around and pulling open the door.
“Are you going to go get her?” Mia called over my shoulder. I ignored her, and brushed past Maria who was scowling at me from the bathroom door.
“Got lost on your way to the john?” She asked, crossing her arms and tapping her foot impatiently.
“No, when you wouldn’t hold my dick for me I thought I’d test my luck with your daughter’s roommate,” I smiled, glancing over my shoulder at Mia. “Thanks, babe,” I winked.
“What? No! I didn’t…” Mia stammered.
These Bianci people were a pain in my ass but they sure were fun to fuck with.
I turned around and shoved my finger in front of Maria’s nose.
“I’ll be back. Don’t. Fucking. Move.”
“Where are you going?”
“To pick up your damn daughter, because someone upstairs…” I pointed my index finger to the ceiling. “…wants to keep fucking testing my patience with you people.”
It was her turn to shove her accusing finger in my face.
“You’re going to the hospital to pick her up? Just…don’t talk to anyone. I’m warning you, you better behave yourself and not embarrass her. Lauren has worked very hard to get where she is and the last thing she needs is some scoundrel like you, messing things up for her with your crude mouth and poor manners,” she said.
Was this bitch serious?
“I’ll try not to piss on the floors of the hospital and promise not to pick my nose in front of any hotshot doctors,” I sneered, shaking my head in disgust.
She should only know how deep my manners go.

Thank You.
They are two simple words.
I never understood the meaning of until #PropertyOfParrish
Jennifer: I don’t really know where to begin. You’ve been at my side every step of this journey, restoring faith in me and these characters when I hit a plateau. You’re more than just my sounding board you are the driving force behind Janine Infante Bosco, the author. With this book we’ve learned that two words are sometimes more than just two simple words we use every day. So, when I say thank you, I hope you know that those two words mean so much more when I say them to you.
Trish Bacher: I wish I remembered our very first conversation. I think it would be cool to travel back a year or so ago and reflect on how far we’ve come from those first few words. It still humbles me that you put your time and effort behind Forbidden Temptations and something I’m very thankful for. I was excited to work with you again on Jack and Reina’s story and learned so much from your notes. The friendship we’ve come to have means a lot to me and I look forward to working together more in the future.
Michelle: I fangirl you!
Ella and everyone at EscapeNbooks: Resident author? Me? What an honor. Seriously, the honor is having met you, Ella, and your devotion to the Indie community.
Amy Goodwin and Sammy Baker: I’m buying each of you a pimp cane. In all seriousness, you girls are awesome. Every week, almost every day, you girls are out there pushing my teasers and my name, spreading the word that Janine Infante Bosco exists and so do her characters.
The Members of Janine’s Land of Temptation: I love all of you. I love how supportive and interactive our little haven has become and am proud to call each of you a friend.
Mia and everyone at IndieSage Promotions: Thank you for all your hard work setting up my promotions. I had the door slammed in my face with a different promotional company and my ego was bruised until our first email. It’s true when they say one door closes and another opens. Thank you for working with me and helping me build relationships with bloggers.
Bloggers: There is no Indie Community without any of you. Some of you guys have been working with me from my very first book and some of you have just begun to work with me. I value each of you, and hold all of you in high regard whether you have 10,000 followers or 10. Any way you slice it you are taking time out of your day to read my books, review them and spread the word to readers. That’s big. It’s huge. It’s everything.
To my family and friends: Thank you for putting up with me. For encouraging me to follow my dreams and supporting me even when things get wonky. Sometimes all you need is your best friend to draw you a family tree, or your husband to tell you ‘Just make them get it from the Dragons’, like their our friends or something.
To my two boys who are my whole heart
#JoeyB and PaulieB
These dreams I chase, I chase them for you, hoping you’ll never be afraid to chase after yours.
To my readers: Old and new…Thank you for letting me be a part of your world.
See you on the other side,
Janine
