Fearless (Broken Love Book 5) (26 page)

Where can I
start? I guess at this point my emotional attachment to this series and the character’s story told within the pages has reached its breaking point. Keiran, Lake, and the rest of the gang will always be my favorite simply because they were my first. Their story was special and misunderstood by some but worthy of telling nonetheless.

If you’re wondering why Keiran took a backseat to being the hero, I think it’s because I owed it to Lake. Everyone doubted whether she could shed her damsel and become the hero, including her. Keiran, at the same time, struggled with the moral dilemma of what was right so Lake stepped in to share the burden.

This may be the last book, but who is to say their story will ever truly end?  I guarantee you’ll see them again when Q, Di, and Jesse tell their story. (The book will be a standalone outside of the series)

This acknowledgment is unusually short because rather than picking and choosing, I want to acknowledge every single person who read, loved, hated, promoted, and worked to make this series a success.

Thank you.

If you could have a phone conversation with Keiran, what would you say/ask?

Delilah Caro:
Only one question comes to mind... when did you know you were in love with Lake? At what point was it no longer hate? Was it something she said or a particular incident?

Keiran:
It’s hard to say when it happened because whenever it did, it was hard to remember a time or possibility when I never was. It felt like a natural part of me.

Briana Black:
That time you may have gotten Lake pregnant and she was freaking out, you really seemed like you didn’t give a damn. What would you have done if she were pregnant? Did you want to get her pregnant?

Keiran:
The last thing I wanted at the time was to create more monsters.

Veronica Ashley:
Keiran, if you could do one thing differently in your life, what would that one thing be—something you control, not something that was chosen for you. P.S. You are badass and hot as hell!

Keiran:
I’d changed who fathered me and bring my mother back to life.

Rachel Campbell:
Keiran, back when you were tormenting Lake right after you were released, if you found out that she actually had an intimate relationship while you were locked up, would you really have killed her? You always threatened it but, at that time, would you really have gone through with it?

Keiran:
That’s the answer that might scare me the most. I guess we’ll never know.

Lucy Cooper:
Keiran, does it scare you that the people around you are no longer scared of you, but if anything, becoming more like you. First your brother then Willow and now Lake?

Keiran:
I have no doubt that I have influenced decisions and actions made by my friends, but just as I influenced them, their influence turned out to be more powerful.

Krisi Fullbrook:
How does it make you feel that the one person you love has the power to make you FEAR what BREAKING her LOVE for you (Which would NOT make you FEARLESS) would leave you BROKEN ???

Keiran:
I think you said it, Krisi
.


Angie Esquilin:
Keiran, I know you love Lake. But if you had a choice to do things differently with her. Will you do it?

Keiran:
Lake gave me that chance the day she took my ring and my name. I’ve been doing things differently since.

Jamie Buchanan:
Keiran, I love you. If you and Lake don’t work out, can I be your Dark Princess of Bainbridge, please?

Keiran:
LOL. Are you sure you could handle me?

Hatice Sahiner:
  Keiran, in high school, when did you first start to notice Lake as anything other than someone to hurt? Was there ever a time when you thought you would rather ‘be her man’ than ‘the man who hurt Lake’?

Keiran:
After she finally convinced me for the first time that I wasn’t a monster.

Lisa P. Kane:
Do [you] ever worry that Lake will wonder what it would be like to have dated anyone else, since [you’re] the only guy she’s ever been with?

Keiran:
I’ve been keeping her too busy to wonder. Besides… she knows better.

Abby Camacho:
Keiran, Lake told you once “Love is much more powerful than fear.” At this point in your lives, what do you think about that statement? Is love powerful enough?

Keiran:
Love brought me to my knees, Abby. I think it packs a pretty powerful punch. Through all the hate I threw her way, she remained standing. And I’m much bigger than she is
.

Stacey Adams:
Keiran, the moment Keenan found out you killed his mom, did it make you regret it, considering he’s your brother?

Keiran:
I was sorry for hurting him, but I didn’t know the truth about my mother to regret the thought of killing her.

Cat Holloway:
What is the most intriguing thing you’ve read in Lake’s journal, and how do you think it affected your relationship?

Keiran:
Learning she had a crush on me when we were sixteen. That was definitely interesting considering I was the biggest dick to her that year.

Marisol Barrenas:
Keiran, where is the weirdest place you have done it with Lake?

Keiran:
In my head. There’s some pretty wild things that involve her in there—things she’d never let me do.

Samoa Jahan:
Keiran, I don’t mind being your side chick. Will you accept it?

Keiran:
If I were that type of man, I’d be honored.

Carol Nevarez:
Keiran, have you ever been to The Container Store with Lake!?!

Keiran:
Jesus, no. I’ve heard about that store. I’d sell my left nut never to have to step foot in there with her.

Nicolette Guajardo:
Keiran, I have one thing to say to you. One word. One syllable. One meaning. Hi.

Keiran:
Hello yourself. ;-)

Lupine Barragan:
Keiran, what is your biggest regret?

Keiran:
I’ll never know my mother, I’ll never be able to erase the hurt I caused Lake, and I’ll never know who Gabriel could have been.

Skye Jacobs:
Keiran, if you and Keenan knew that you guys were brothers from the beginning, what do you think your relationship with each other would have been like? P.S. You’re one hot motherfucker.

Keiran:
We were always brothers. Learning it was the real deal didn’t make our relationship feel any different.

Rosemarie Adams:
Keiran, the people around you have forgiven you for most of the things you have done. Could you ever forgive yourself?

Keiran:
I try a little each day, Rosemarie.

Maria Williams:
What do you and Lake do in your free time? Do you guys watch movies together or go bowling?

Keiran:
  I like to teach her things… shooting, bowling, basketball… for some reason, it gets my pupil hot.

Laura Andrews:
Keiran, if you could give your younger self some advice, what would it be?

Keiran:
Don’t be a dick.

Agnese Kohn:
Pick me up...

Keiran:
What time?

Janese:
  Keiran, you had a difficult time loving and being loved in the beginning. How have you changed in the last five years when it comes to love for Lake, your family, and friends?

Keiran:
According to them, I’m still an asshole, but at least I’m tolerable. Willow wasn’t there, but she tells me regularly.

NAOMI SANTOS:
Keiran, as much as you love Lake, do you believe she killed your father? If so, how do you feel about her now?

KEIRAN:
It was hard to believe. A part of me knew she couldn’t have done it, but it angered, scared, and humbled me to know she was willing to do it. She’d gone there to kill him—that much I do believe. I’m just grateful she didn’t because I couldn’t live with that on my conscience. We’ve come a long way considering I once wanted to shatter the innocence that made her irresistible to me.

LAUREN STRYKER:
Keiran, when can we expect little Keiran’s?

KEIRAN:
I think the only question now is, how many more can I make before Lake cuts me off?

FEENA DON:
If you loved Lake as much as you claimed, why would you never let her go?? You must’ve known she would’ve done anything for you. You’re selfish, Keiran! But I gotta say, I love the way you love.

KEIRAN: I never denied being selfish man.

BRIE BURGESS:
Keiran, first off: Hey, Zaddy *waves seductively* Now, when you had Lake on the floor, knife to her throat... what were you thinking as you entered her each time? Did you really want to put fear into her or was it more about you fighting your demons and not killing her? And how did it make you feel that she pulled a knife out on you first? Obviously, hard as a rock, but what else?

P.S. Marry me and let’s make this sister wives union for real.

KEIRAN:
How are you, Brie? I’m not proud of what I did, but at the time, it seemed like a good idea. I think I wanted to scare her again so I wouldn’t have to kill her. She was learning not to be afraid of me, and I couldn’t let that happen. But I will say this… Lake pulling that knife on me was the hottest thing I’d ever seen, and I just had to get my dick in her.

Tempting… but I’m a married man, Brie.

LIVIA BEJKO:
What’s the thing that scares you most about life? Thanks for answering. Oh, by the way, you are a total jackass and more than once have deserved to get beat-up, but I still like you, you selfish, brainless, awesome-killer, perfect boy.

KEIRAN: Knowing what happened to me as a child won’t die with me, and I can’t do anything to stop it.

It’s my boyish charm. ;-)

B.B., also known
as Bebe, found her passion for romance when she read her first romance novel by Susan Johnson at a young age. She would sneak into her mother’s closet for books and even sometimes the attic. It soon became a hobby, and later, an addiction, influencing her life in a positive way.

Bebe is fresh out of undergrad college and has always wondered about the existence of her talent. When she finally decided to pick up a metaphorical pen and start writing, she found a new way to embrace her passion.

She favors a romance that isn’t always easy on the eyes or heart and loves to see characters grow—characters who are seemingly doomed from the start but find love anyway.
