But now, Adrian is distant and cold, as if their past never existed. Yet Zara can’t let go of the fire they once had… or the heartbreak he left behind. When secrets, longing, and desire collide, will their heat reignite into something lasting… or burn everything to the ground? [Excerpt] His mouth crashed onto hers, all heat and hunger and years of restraint finally breaking. Zara gasped as Adrian lifted her onto the counter, his hands gripping her thighs, parting them like he belonged there. “You still want this?” he murmured against her lips. “I never stopped,” she breathed. His hands slid beneath her dress, finding the warmth he’d only dreamed of touching again. She moaned as his fingers teased her, slow and wicked. “God, Zara,” he growled, voice thick. “You’re already so wet for me.” She arched into him, eyes fluttering closed. “Then don’t make me wait.” *** [Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction.
