Blurred Lines Phe Appling

Derek Sylvers was born with a gift like no other. He has a smile that will stop your heart and eyes to match. He used his looks and sex to gain submission from any woman he set his sights on. He had a different bed to sleep in every night, if that was what he wanted, and he thought that his heart was only good for pumping blood... until he met his first love, Trinidad. Trinidad Jeffries was a rare breed. She was beautiful, loyal, and a good cook. That, and the fact that she was independent, made her everything that Derek didn't know he wanted in a woman. He stayed on his best behavior just long enough to get into her house, her bed, and her family. They developed a special kind of love that could not be denied. She was the flashlight to his darkness. They were a team, whether winning or losing, the did it together. Their relationship was real, and they looked forward to a happy future as a family. Unfortunately, Derek's skeletons begin to come out one by one, and Trini's world collapses all around her when Derek betrays her in the worst way. Derek makes the ultimate mistake and turns Trini from a sweet, caring woman, to a woman scorned. Apologies are no longer good enough. Will Derek be able to win Trini's love and forgiveness again? Or will he give up and fall back into his old habits and choose familiarity over forever?
