This is a 12,500 word short story about a woman who takes up for a man, has a one night stand and ends up pregnant. The man is the son of the local Don. She can't deny her attraction to him, and knows her parents will be upset. Daddy is a preacher and her mother is wimpy. Can the man, who is promoted to capo, can he find love and happiness being married to a stranger? <br>Once Candace learns she's adopted and her biological father was an enforcer, will she be able overcome her feelings of not belonging? Will she learn to love herself? Can she keep the man she calls Moon alive. There is a couple of curse words but this is a really clean read. Thank you for considering my writing.
