Flinch

David Bourdon isn’t over his ex. 


He misses their old life. He misses Ann-Marie’s laugh, her sultry voice, the way she swears like a sailor. 


He had good reasons for leaving her. She can do better than him. He’s messed up; she’s not. 


But now Ann-Marie wants him back. On one condition: he has to be honest with her, for the very first time. About what he likes. What he wants her to do to him. 


He thought leaving her took all the courage he had. He was wrong.


Flinch is a 6,200-word stand-alone short story set in the Grenton PD contemporary romance series. It contains no spoilers and ends with its own HEA, not a cliffhanger!
