“Or perhaps, you think of Lauren as the least important Beckett daughter. Do you only
deem her good
enough as a mistress, not a wife?”
“Alyssa Taylor! How could you- Landon snapped at her.

He considered the villa he shared with Lauren his home. He might have a mom and a
sister, but his mom

Zoe will eventually accept your decision.”
Landon gathered his thoughts and opened the door to Lauren’s room. He called out,
