Things Made Right

Loren is interested in Ross from the first night she meets him. But despite what her roommate’s brother says, Loren doesn’t think Ross has the slightest interest in her.

Ross is more than interested in Loren. Unfortunately, he’s not sure she can handle the real him, his darker side.

Until the night her world is ripped apart at the seams, and Ross can’t fix it despite desperately wishing he could. The only thing he can do is help Loren through it the best he can, and spend the rest of their lives together showing her how he feels.

Now it’s thirty years later, and the past comes calling. Loren doesn’t know all the facts, but she knows Ross is the center of her world. She’ll do anything and everything in her power to shield him. Because even though some things can’t be fixed, Ross made them right. And Loren will face the past alone, if necessary, to save their future.

AUTHOR’S NOTE

 

 

This book is Ross and Loren’s story and picks up shortly after the closing of
A Very Kinky Valentine’s Day
and the events of the final chapter in that book.

We first met Ross and Loren as secondary characters in
Cardinal’s Rule
, and they’ve appeared in various books from that point on. I honestly didn’t know much about them in the beginning. They’d never “told” me their story. I naturally assumed they were very boring, average people without any notable backstory to report.

It was while writing the final chapter of
A Very Kinky Valentine’s Day
that Loren finally let some of their secrets slip. Only then did I understand exactly why those two characters had kept their past hidden from me for so long.

Thus a glimpse at how the brain of a “pantster” kind of writer works. (That would be me. Outlines? We don’ need no stinkin’ outlines…)

While the books in the Suncoast Society series are standalone works which may be read independently of each other, the recommended reading order to avoid spoilers is as follows:

 

1.
Safe Harbor

2.
Cardinal’s Rule

3.
Domme by Default

4.
The Reluctant Dom

5.
The Denim Dom

6.
Pinch Me

7.
Broken Toy

8.
A Clean Sweep

9.
A Roll of the Dice

10.
His Canvas

11.
A Lovely Shade of Ouch

12.
Crafty Bastards

13.
A Merry Little Kinkmas

14.
Sapiosexual

15.
A Very Kinky Valentine’s Day

16.
Things Made Right

 

If you’ve read no other books in the series, it is highly recommended you at least read
Safe Harbor
before reading this one. There are some events in there involving Sully, Mac, and Clarisse that are referenced in this book, and it might not make sense if you haven’t read that book first.

Some of the characters who appear in this book appear in other books in the Suncoast Society series. All titles are available from Siren-BookStrand.

Chapter One

 

Now…

 

Sully patiently waited for Loren to compose her thoughts and get to her point. It had surprised him when she’d called him that morning and asked if she could talk with him.

It’d surprised him even more when she’d asked if she could drive up to Pinellas and meet with him to talk in person.

And surprised him still yet that Ross not only didn’t know about this talk, but that she preferred Sully didn’t tell him.

Or anyone else.

Including Sully’s wife Clarisse, one of Loren’s closest friends.

The waitress had taken their drink orders and left them alone. They’d met at a small restaurant in Tarpon Springs, right on the sponge docks on Dodecanese, that overlooked the water. Loren fidgeted with her silverware, the napkin, the salt and pepper shakers, the little doohickey holding the packets of sugar and artificial sweeteners.

Still, he waited.

“How’s Clarisse doing?” she asked.

Sully struggled not to ask her to get to the point. He knew Clarisse had just talked to Loren on the phone two days earlier, and they’d likely texted.

“She’s six months pregnant and in the cranky phase,” he said, trying to keep his tone light. “I’m beginning to suspect she has more switch in her than she thinks she does. She’s keeping poor Mac running. Being on doctor-ordered bed rest has thrown her for a loop.”

The twin girls Clarisse was carrying appeared healthy, but she’d had a scare with premature contractions and was now on bed rest and medications to prevent her from going into premature labor.

“Ross is out of town,” she finally said, her gaze fixed on a point on the table about halfway across it.

“Okay,” he finally said when she wasn’t forthcoming with more information than that.

Sully knew Ross practiced a very specialized subset of intellectual property and technology law, including copyright, patent, and trademark cases. Sometimes, he had to travel out of town for litigation.

Finally, her hazel gaze settled on him. “I need to talk with you about something…disturbing. I have to get your take on it before I decide what I need to do.”

He tensed, forcing himself not to react, to maintain a casual, yet curious tone. “What’s it regarding?”

“Something that happened.” Her gaze returned to the table.

“Can you be a little more specific?”

“A crime.” Her gaze darted up to his before skittering away again.

Sully didn’t like where this was going because he suspected he knew exactly where it was going. “Why don’t you just say what’s on your mind?”

“Because I need to know a couple of things before I decide what I should do with this.”

Sully fought the urge to impatiently drum his fingers on the table. The waitress reappeared with their drinks but they hadn’t even looked at their menus yet.

“We’re going to need a couple more minutes,” he told the waitress before she left them alone again.

He opened his menu even though his appetite had deserted him. “Loren, I love you as a friend, but I am going to be honest here and tell you that you’re starting to concern me.”

“As a former cop, aren’t you required to report things that happened…even years ago?”

He froze. “Why are you asking me that?”

She sipped her iced tea. He didn’t miss how her hand trembled, the ice cubes clinking against the glass. “Answer my question.”

“First, you answer mine,” he said. “What kind of crime are we talking about?”

She wouldn’t meet his gaze.

His jaw clenched. “Loren, hypothetically speaking, what kind of crime are we talking about?”

“Murder,” she whispered.

Sully reached out and slowly stirred his iced tea with his straw even though he hadn’t added any sugar to it. Somehow, he’d always wondered if this day would come. That maybe he’d overlooked something, some telling detail. Or maybe Clarisse had said something, let it slip accidentally to one of her friends. Maybe guilt building inside Clarisse had driven her to confide in someone else.
