One Dance (The Club, #7) (2015)
“The punches he kept throwing made hard thumping sounds that filled the room. He felt his body move without thought and his muscles groaned as he threw another round of strikes...one, two, three...jab, jab, cross, uppercut...repeat. He wanted to be so worn-out that his body and mind were exhausted and he could sleep without being plagued by his loneliness.
At thirty-eight, he had no one. He had a couple of close friends, all of them were married with children, and they considered him family, but... who did he have to wake up to every morning—no one.
He was emotionally tired. So very tired. He wanted that one person to come home to everyday. He wanted that same person to snuggle down beside him every night and wake in his arms in the morning.

It was so out of character for him that, at first, he’d been running scared.MoreLess
