Someone once said that the best way to predict the future is to invent it.
As a boy, Jayson Santiago made a vow to leave behind the projects where he grew up. He planned to conquer the world and find a woman who could not only hold it down, but also hold him up. Now he’s the reigning king of hip-hop, and while he has the professional success he always wanted, he’s missing the personal success he craves.
Victoria Watson is the daughter of an oil tycoon who never wanted for anything. Circumstances have forced her out of her protective bubble and into the real world, where she struggles to make ends meet while finding a way to get back the only important thing in her life.
Will they be able to make Jayson’s prophecy come true? Or will they be pushed past their breaking point? It isn’t easy to keep focused on the heart and soul of the one you love when you’re always being tested. Then again, the best things in life are always worth fighting for...

“You do know you’re beautiful, right? And your
mom would be proud to see what a special woman you’ve become,” he whispered in
my ear. When he was done speaking, he pulled back fractionally and stared into
my eyes. Blue meeting green in an effort to communicate how genuine that
statement was for him.
My breath hitched, and I fought hard
to swallow past the lump that was building in my throat. He said the most
perfect things at just the right time. In that moment, I really wanted this man
beyond just in my bedroom. I wanted him in my life.
He leaned away and settled on my
side of the booth, propping his foot up on the opposite side and stretching his
arm along the back of the seat.
“What
other songs did you like? Or is it presumptuous of me to assume you liked more
than one song on that CD?” I was grateful for the lighter topic, since the
chemistry between us was starting to feel a bit combustible.
“Not
at all. I liked most of them, but ‘The Struggle’ spoke to me. I felt like you
gave me a glimpse inside you. It was humbling to be given that opportunity. To
hear how you struggled to be the son your mother would be proud of and the man
that a woman would want to spend her life with. The man a daughter would want
to call father. It was really very beautiful.”
I watched as something passed over
his face that was both breathtaking and raw. Before I had a chance to put my
finger on what it was, it was gone. Replaced with a serious look that made me
cringe a little. I wanted the playful Jay back. Not the one that appeared to be
lost in thoughts, and not all of them good.
“Although
I have to say the song about fucking your best friend’s girl one night and then
hitting an entire sorority the next was just as inspirational,” I deadpanned.
“How did you possibly fit them in all in one night? Inquiring minds want to
know.” I winked and hoped that would break the mood. It worked when he threw a
fry from my plate at me.
“Brat.”
He laughed with a half grin on his face.
“Really,
though, is that true? Did you really have sex with that many women in the span
of one night?”
He looked uncomfortable for a split
second before answering. “Maybe not all of them,
but there were quite a few.”
“Huh.
So you’re a stallion then?” Growing up with horses I knew that stallions were
often bred more than once in a day. If this story was true, I could imagine him
going all night like a real thoroughbred. That thought was a little too much
for my brain to comprehend.
“I
haven’t had any complaints. And I’m certainly hung like one.”
“You
know, they say the men who brag the most are the ones that shouldn’t be bragging.”
“Oh,
Tori. Now you’re testing me. If you want me to show you, baby, it can be
arranged.”
