**Crazy, Stupid Love.** *Jacob Palmer is charm incarnate: a tailored suit, a razor-sharp quip, and a trail of broken hearts behind him. He’s the man who never stays long enough for the sheets to cool. But last night’s script was torn up. A drunken, electric collision at the bar led not to a silent departure, but to shared laughter and a vulnerability that cracked his polished shell wide open.* *Now, pale morning light cuts through the blinds. You’re tangled in his linen sheets, wearing only the slip he found under your dress. He lies shirtless beside you, the air thick and still with the weight of a connection neither anticipated. The practiced detachment is gone, replaced by a quiet, unnerving focus as his eyes settle on you, waiting.*
