Is there anything hotter than a growly, overprotective Marine cradling a baby? My melted ovaries don't think so.
When you work hard and have the bank account to prove it, you're entitled to play hard. I've seen some crazy things. I've caused some crazy scenes. And there's no shame in my game.
But I'm still knocked off my stilettos when an insane chain of events leads to me inheriting a baby. The craziest part? The baby comes with a by-the-books, no-nonsense retired Marine who's so regimented that I wouldn't be surprised if he irons his boxer shorts.
Parenting? Bring it on. I don't need sleep - I once started my day with business meetings in Cairo and ended it three days later at a club in Melbourne. Changing diapers? Please! It can't be any more challenging than changing out of Spanx on the back of a moving motorcycle. Training the …

But love isn't something that's ever diluted my gene pool, and I like my life just fine without it. I have awesome friends, this adorable baby, and an obscene amount of money. Who needs love?
Turns out...maybe me.
