Casey
The first time I saw the hot construction worker, I wanted him so much that I acted out of character and initiated a kiss one night. It was the hottest and best kiss of my life. Then he promptly ghosted me.
Months later, he shows up at my dad’s pediatric clinic with his sick, adorable little boy who I didn’t even know he had. He's rude and still hot as sin, but the heart wants what the heart wants.
When I learn of his past, It does nothing to stop my growing love for him and his son, even as he uses me then pushes me away again and again. I’m trying to stay strong, but I’m failing. I know I deserve better, even as he brings all my insecurities about not being wanted to the forefront.
I have to stand up for myself, or he will break me completely.

From the moment I saw her I was attracted to her, and then one night, she kissed me, and I wanted her completely. The more I desired her, the guiltier I felt. My son and I are both traumatized from our past, and I’m trying to make ends meet while she lives in the lap of luxury. She’s completely out of my league.
When demons from my past resurface, my need to protect her is fierce even as I continue to push her away. I need to stop or eventually I’ll end up breaking her spirit.
I might have already.
I’m not worthy of forgiveness, but I wish for it anyway.
And as my son and I fall deeper in love with her, I begin to hope for the impossible—a second chance at happiness even when I know I don’t deserve it.
His life seemed to be going well until he laid eyes on Emma Sinclaire, a seemingly broke waitress with a deadbeat boyfriend.
The moment she set foot in one of his apartments he knew he had to stay away from her, that was until she stumbled into him on a night out.
From that moment on their lives changed forever.
Now they must fight to survive the web of secrets and lies from both of their past's.
Since the first time he kissed me, he was my best-kept secret, my quiet rebellion, my haven in the storm.
But fate forced us apart, making us pretend to be strangers because it hurt too much to be anything else.
Years later, time hasn’t dulled what we felt, has never erased the way we fit. And when Kye’s past collides with my present, everything shifts.
It’s a choice neither of us expected.
A bond that never really broke.
A line we were never meant to cross.
We tell ourselves it’s only temporary, that the arrangement is just a means to an end. But with each passing day, the lie feels more like the truth. And with each stolen touch, Kye feels more like mine. Because some things were never meant to be pretend.
And some dangers are closer than we ever imagined...
