Excerpt #3
Chapter 26
Brayden
While
Maggie’s parents are here, I need to talk to her dad. The ring I recently purchased is never far
from my mind. I want to get this right,
make all her dreams come true.
I
finally get a moment alone with him at Ryder’s house. I pull out the ring as I begin our talk.
“Mr.
Lawson, you know how much and how long I have been in love with your
daughter. I know I have made some
mistakes. I have learned from them and
through it all my love for Maggie has grown even stronger. She is my better half, truly and I want to
make her my wife. Do I have your
blessing in asking your daughter to marry me?”
He
doesn’t say anything for the longest time.
This makes me very uncomfortable, so I begin to ramble.
“Mr.
Lawson, I know I am not worthy to even have Maggie as a friend, much less
anything more after what I have done. I
never deserved someone as precious and loving as Maggie in the first
place. The thing is, sir, you told me
when the time came I would know whether to follow my heart or my head. Well, I am following both. My heart loves that woman with every breath
inside of me. My head knows she is good
for me, keeps me focused on doing right.
So sir, I am not only asking, I am begging you to give this your
blessing.”
I know
I sound like a complete pussy begging this man for permission to propose, but
damn it I know Maggie will ask me if I got her dad’s blessing. If they don’t support the engagement Maggie
will walk away from me for good and I know it.
Harold
smiles at me, “Son, yes I know you love my daughter. We have all made mistakes you need to let go
of that. You are a good man, deep inside
you there are issues you have to face daily.
You fight those battles just to be with my princess. You have always wanted to take care of
her. I think you have worked really hard
to straighten out your mess, Brayden.
And Son, yes you have my blessing to marry my one and only daughter.”

About
the Author:
Chelsea Camaron was born
and raised in Coastal North Carolina. She currently resides in Southern
Louisiana with her husband and two children but her heart is always Carolina
day dreaming. Chelsea always wanted to be a writer, but like most of us, let
fear of the unknown grab a hold of her dream; she realized that if she was
going to tell her daughter to go for her dreams, that it was time to follow her
own advice. Chelsea grew up turning wrenches alongside her father, and from
that grew her love for old muscle cars and Harley Davidson motorcycles, which
just so happened to inspired her ‘Daddy’s Girls’ series. Her love for reading
has sparked a new love for writing and she currently has a few more projects in
the works. When she is not spending her days writing you can find her playing
with her kids, attending car shows, going on motorcycle rides on the back of
her husband’s Harley, snuggling down with her new favorite book or watching any
movie that Vin Diesel might happen to be in. She hates being serious and is
still a big kid at heart. She is a small town country girl enjoying life and,
Chelsea hopes that her readers remember not to take life too seriously and to
embrace your inner five year old, because five year olds know how to enjoy the
simple things in life and how to always have fun.
