Denial can't withstand desire forever...

Though the platonic arrangement suits her initially, the tide begins to turn after years of polite coexistence. Lingering touches and stolen glances speak of a deeper yearning, one Lena never expected.From the moment they met, Rowan felt a magnetic attraction to his beautiful wife, but resisted acting on his feelings out of loyalty to his late best friend. Now, as his suppressed emotions bubble to the surface, Lena remains devoted to a memory— leaving no space in her heart for anyone new.
When an unexpected kiss breaks through years of restraint, Lena and Rowan are overwhelmed by the passion that flames between them. But giving in to their desires means facing the deep wounds of their past and abandoning the barriers that have kept them safe.
As feelings neither of them anticipated take hold, they must decide if they are willing to risk their fragile family for a love that was never part of the plan. But with lies and secrets coming to light, they may find that some paths forward can only be discovered together—and some pains can only be healed in each other's arms.
Amid the ashes of their painful pasts, Lena and Rowan must confront their deepest desires, fears, and hopes. Can a real, passionate love bloom from the seeds of a marriage of convenience? Or will their pasts forever haunt their chance at happiness?
