Alisha Star

The Orphan Next Door Alisha Star

Emily is too young for me, but I can't shake how much I want her. I want to rescue her from her isolation.

I certainly want to rescue her from that gold-digging little creep James.


I want to love her and be loved by her, and wake up to her face every morning.

And of course, I'd love to make her mine. Even if our age difference didn't make me hesitate,

James is doing his best to get and stay in the way, even after Emily throws him out of her life.

He's stalking her; he's stalking us. And he's way too interested in my little girl for comfort.

I'm determined to have Emily in my arms, safe from him and from the world's other predators.

And when I finally get what I want, it's paradise. For a while, I don't think twice about that little brat and his complaining.

But James isn't done. And as Emily and I work toward our first of what we hope is many Christmases to come,

he's going to take his revenge. I'm a patient man. But when he endangers my lover and my little girl,

it is time for a reckoning.
