Tyler Renner seems like the total catch. That is until I learn how bad the two of them have it. I'm a sucker. I'll admit it.

    Yet I believed we were both. Forbidden soulmates. When I arrived to Edgewood, Wisconsin I didn’t plan to find him.

And for those reasons alone, I would never apologize for Loving Mr. Daniels. -Ashlyn Jennings
