.•´✶RELEASE DAY.•´✶
.•´✶Blurb.•´✶
It’s not a wicked world that drives a man to sin, it’s a deranged mind. Baptized in dirty water by Satan himself, I’ve spent my whole life fighting the good fight, searching for the light in the darkness of insanity. Now, the light I’ve basked in for so long is finally dimming and the time has come for me to take my final bow before the curtain closes on my sanity.
After making a deal with the district attorney and providing my club with full immunity for the crimes we’ve committed, I have twenty-four hours to remind my wife, Reina, why she fell in love with a bastard like me before I turn myself in and break her heart.
But twenty-four hours isn’t enough.
Not for me and certainly not for the Devil.
Tragedy strikes, and my world implodes. It’s lights out for Jack and Reina and a man can’t survive without his sunshine. Engulfed in darkness, consumed by the crazy, I’m a weapon of mass destruction, ready to wreak havoc on the wicked world.
Word to the wise—proceed with caution, motherf*ckers.
The Bulldog is back!

. .•´✶Excerpt•´✶ Ugly Truths
©Copyright 2019 Janine Infante Bosco
Jack’s mood was ping-ponging. One minute he was the loving man
on the cusp of signing his life away, the next he was a desperate creature,
trying to prove his existence. If he could paint the world and leave his mark,
I’m sure he would. Instead, he painted me, branding me in front of a faceless
stranger in a parking lot.
It was nothing I pictured our final time together would be and
yet, at that very moment, it was everything I needed. Desperation will make you
insane and I’m starting to wonder if maybe Jack isn’t the only one losing his
mind because I am not ashamed of what we did.
I’d do it again.
And again.
In front of thousands of eyes.
I’d paint the world too, letting everyone know I’m his.
The other half of Jack’s heart.
The broken piece he’ll leave behind in a few hours.
“Reina,” Jack calls from behind me, pulling me away from my
thoughts. Shrugging my jacket off, I drape it over the back of one of the
kitchen chairs before glancing over my shoulder at him. Leaning against the
door frame, he crosses his arms and studies me for a moment.
“Are you okay?” he questions, narrowing his dark eyes.
“Of course,” I reply, turning around to completely face him. I
comb my fingers through my hair and stare at him. “Why wouldn’t I be okay?”
“You barely said a word to Grace before she left,” he points
out.
A frown ticks the corners of my mouth as I realize he’s right.
I was too lost in my own head to pay much attention to Grace. I didn’t even
bother to thank her for watching Danny or ask if she had heard back from her
husband’s lawyer. Truthfully, I was relieved when I heard the door close behind
her and for that I’m ashamed. In my defense, I’m terrified of the sun coming up
and all I want is to lay next to my husband. I want to memorize the rhythm of
his heartbeat and the way I perfectly fit in the crook of his arm.
I’ll have plenty of time to talk with Grace.
Plenty of chances to thank her for watching my son.
But I won’t have my husband.
“I’ll call her tomorrow to apologize,” I say as he pushes off
the doorjamb and takes a step closer to me.
“Talk to me, Reina,” he pleads. “Tell me what’s going on
inside that head of yours.”
I smile at his choice of words.
“Isn’t that my line?”
He cocks his head to the side as he reaches me and lifts his
hand to my cheek.
“I love looking at you,” he says softly. “In the morning when
you wake up. When you’re cooking and helping Danny with his homework. When you
smile and fuck, I love watching you laugh too. After you come when you’re
completely satisfied and look at me like I’m some kind of fucking king—that’s
another look I love.”
Pausing, he lifts his other hand to my face and cups my cheeks
as he leans his forehead against mine.
“But this look, the one you’re giving me right now, it’s
fucking breaking my heart Reina.”
“What look?”
“Your light is dimming, Sunshine,” he whispers.
As much as I hate to admit it, he’s right. I told myself I
wouldn’t fall to pieces, that I’d stay strong until he surrendered, but I’m
losing my will. It’s all too much and I can’t help but feel like I’m grieving a
living man. The very last thing I want is our final memories of one another to
be these. I want us to remember each other as lovers and know the part of him
that is me, will never die.
“I’m fine,” I tell him.
“You’re breaking.”
“No,” I argue, shaking my head free of his hold. “I don’t
break, Parrish.”
The words sound weak to my own ears, but I refuse to show
defeat. Smoothing a hand down his chest, I force a smile.
“Go check on Danny, give him a kiss and tuck him in for the
night. I’m going to take a quick shower before I meet you in bed.”
“Reina—”
“Please, Jack,” I interrupt hoarsely. Something snaps deep
inside of me and I lose my filter. “I haven’t asked you for a thing since you
told me you were taking the deal. I didn’t beg you to change your mind or ask
you to choose me. I stood by your side and performed the role of the supportive
wife like it was my God given right. In reality, I’m mourning my husband and
he’s standing right in front of me. Do you have any idea how that feels?” I
cry, balling my fists angrily. “My heart is broken and in the back of my mind
I’m wondering how I’m going to go on without you, but I can’t let that consume
me because we’re not going to remember our love this way. We get one chance at
goodbye, Jack. One shot at closing the story with a beautiful memory. Now, I’m
asking you to pretend like you don’t see the cracks in my bravado. I want to
remember how loved I felt every time my husband looked at me and how safe I
felt in his arms. I want to remember his gruff voice in my ear and the scent of
his cologne on my sheets. I want to remember you the way I saw and felt you
since the day I met you. Give me that. Please, give me that memory.”
I wait for the regret to seep into my soul but the need to
wish my words away doesn’t come. Not even when he takes a step backward and
flinches as if I’ve smacked him across the face. We’re a lot of things but what
we’re not are liars. Our marriage is full of ugly truths we’ve both accepted,
this is just another added to the list.
