I'm the reformed bad boy. She's the best-selling author on the run. What I never expected was for her to become my obsession.

The second her eyes meet mine at the airport, something ignites in my blood. When she accepts my offer of shelter, I know Savannah James is a temptation I can't resist.

Her secrets mirror the darkness I've buried. Her vulnerability awakens a need to claim without crushing. The curve of her neck when she writes has me clenching my fists.

At night, I watch her silhouette through curtains, wanting. For the first time since rebuilding my life, I'm consumed.

When her ex threatens her, something primal takes over. Controlled. Focused. Protective.

But I'm hiding my truth—millions concealed behind modest walls.

Together, we've constructed careful lies, and when they shatter publicly, I might lose the woman whose taste haunts me.

Now I must choose between secrets that protected me or the woman who's set my soul on fire.
