Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Nora shook her head anxiously and moved closer to Hansen on the couch. "Dad, are you going to protect your kids?"

Hansen shook his head and slid a little farther away from his daughter-in-law. "Nope, not getting involved."

Cradling his hiccupping, red-faced son, Andre called down again, louder this time. "Mia! Henry just peed on my desk! I can't deal with him-get up here!"

Nora raised her eyebrows. "Andre hit my baby? Well, then my baby peed all over his daddy's office, didn't he?" The words were a little too much for Henry to follow, but he was dead set: his dad hit him.
