Speed Rail (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781957145228)

My life revolves around just one thing: my daughter. I don't have the time or energy for anything else--not my foolish dream of an acting career and definitely not the annoying woman who opened a gym in the warehouse behind my garage.

Piper's a menace to society, between her loud music, hurling weights around like a shot putter, and her building that is definitely not up to code.

Unfortunately, my kid thinks she's the best thing since unlimited screen-time. It's getting harder to avoid Piper when my daughter keeps going over there to ask about hair braids and sports teams.

Maybe I took things too far when I called the building inspector on Piper, but she can't keep bringing clients into that fire hazard of a gym. And I can't have her behind my house all the time, clad in spandex and making me think about things I have no business wishing for.

I'm done with relationships. Whatever I feel for Piper is passing. If I drive her away, I can get back to raising my daughter in peace. Anything else is just a pipe dream...
