Suzie -- I'm the youngest grad student at MIT, and to say other students resent me for it is an understatement. To top it all off, I miss my Stunner. He's been with me through the darkest moments of my life, helping me pull myself back together. He's seen me at my worst -- I want him to see me at my best. If he'd just return my calls, I might be able to get myself around the mean girls (and boys) at school.
Stunner -- To say I've got skeletons in my closet is the understatement of the century. Suzie deserves a man more suited to her station than me, and she definitely deserves a man who's not a stone-cold killer. I have my uses. Protecting her body, heart, and soul is one of those. I just never expected to fall for the woman after the girl grew up.
Now not only has she run into a foul and vindictive bastard, my past has caught up to me, and there may be no way to keep from being swept back up into the madness. All I truly know is I won't let any of it touch Suzie -- even if it means giving her up. Forever.
