And Connor was very blinded by the other facts because he was worried about Reagan: that he had known Chris most of the younger man’s life and liked him; Chris was mature and caring; he was a good friend, and the list of good traits went on. Aside from wanting to protect his daughter, watching Jude suffer a few years back because of a broken heart was still fresh in his mind.

You, knowing this, could easily be using her to pass your time.” That was harsh, Connor knew it, but this was his only concern. He sat back, hands wrapped around his coffee cup. “Tell me, Chris.
