I don’t need his approval...or his panty-melting kisses.

I refuse to leave my mom behind, and the four boys who've each claimed a piece of my heart won't let me face this threat on my own. They swear they'll do whatever it takes to end this. To keep me safe. Since we won't back down, fighting is our only option. But I've played poker long enough to know that sometimes when you risk everything...you lose everything.

But since the pieces are already on the board...I'm sure as f--k gonna play to win.

Hi! I’m Miranda Blake, and this is my story. Well, sort of. It’s more like a twisted fairytale, if you believe in them. Except there’s no beautiful, young princess with perky breasts, perfectly coiffed hair, and a sassy attitude. I’m closing in on 50, 30 pounds overweight according to Weight Watchers. As for sassy attitude, well, it wasn’t so long ago that I was a doormat. And the charming prince who sweeps me off my feet into the life of my dreams? I have a dog called Prince, German Shepherd....
