Over the Edge

As the rhythm guitarist for Crimson Edge, while my bandmates chase the spotlight, I stick to the shadows. Keeping the beat, keeping out of trouble, and keeping my heart off-limits.At least, that was the plan... until our tour bus broke down in the middle of nowhere.She's a no-nonsense truck stop waitress who couldn't care less about fame, doesn't recognize me, and definitely doesn't fall for my smooth lines. She calls me out, keeps it real, and flips my world on its axis with nothing more than a look and a cup of coffee.Two unforgettable days. One reckless night. And then the tour moves on.I figured that was the end of it... until she calls with two life-altering words: I'm pregnant.Now everything's changed. I thought I knew what I wanted—music, freedom, no attachments. But she's in my head, under my skin, and carrying the one thing that could break me wide open.This isn't about the band anymore.This is about her.Our baby.And the man I want to become.
