In one moment, life can turn inside out....
As the youngest Comfort man kickin' around Firefly Island, I'd been born into a legacy and a curse. Literally. Us Comfort men were cursed and, dependin' on who ya asked, we were also legends, known for fighting, flirting, and another f-word. One that ended with k, and you'd need to buy a vowel and a consonant to fill in the middle.
Hank, my oldest brother, was the fighter. My middle brother Billy's nickname was Panty Dropper, so I think you could guess which one he was known for. And then there was me, the flirt.

I didn't take life too seriously. I was carefree. No attachments. No commitments. Some thought I'd dodged cupid's arrow because of the Comfort Curse. It said every love that any of us found would end in tragedy. I didn't believe in it...but I also couldn't argue with the fact that every time a Comfort man fell in love, it didn't end well.

So, I was happy with spending my days on the ocean running my charter business, and my nights in the bar, drinking and doing what I was best known for--flirting with anybody in a skirt.

Then in one moment, everything changed. I saw the flawless beauty standing on the edge of the dock and I knew my life was never going to be the same.

In one moment, life can turn upside down...
As a little girl, I'd believed that my mother died of a broken heart...it wasn't until I was an adult that I found that was actually the case. One sentence. That's all it took, sitting across from the doctor, to change everything I'd ever thought I knew about my life. And to make me wonder how much life I might have left.
That's when I knew I had to take control, something I'd never done before. For most of my life, my father had micromanaged me, and I'd always given in without a fight. All I'd ever wanted to do was impress him, live up to his expectations.

Now, I was done living my life for him. I had a list of things I wanted to do with whatever time I had left, and I was painfully aware that there was no time like the present.

Some things I could check off my list by myself, but there were definitely things I needed a partner for. Things like losing my virginity. I hadn't had anyone in mind to assist me with that particular to-do item, but the moment I saw Jimmy Comfort's lips turned up in a sexy smile that had my lady parts fluttering, I knew I'd found my man.
