I was done with love. My acrimonious break up with my ex-wife, Alexa, had seen to that. Not only had she been the most unfaithful woman a man could have said “I do” to, but she kept insinuating that I had cheated on her.

It is incredibly stupid to write this text while I’m drunk. But what’s the saying? No gain, no pain. Or, no pain, no shame.... Whatever. You know what I mean. And let’s face it. There’s no way I would be doing this if I was stone-cold sober. But since I’m plastered? To hell with it. I want you. I know. Crazy, right?

Right now, that person is a beautiful redhead who refuses to play by my rules. Doesn't she know I'm the only one who's allowed to break them?

Dear Chelsea, I know what you must think of me now that my secret is out, and I can’t say I’m not disappointed.

I made my career on my own terms and ended it at the top of my game. Retirement should have been easy except the one person always in my corner walked away, taking my heart with him. The opportunity to host a satellite radio show gave me a new lease on life, and everything was great - until I was forced to interview a ghost from the past. He was always my ultimate dream, but instead he became my devastating heartbreak. With his interview over, I was ready to move on with my life. However, he had other plans.
