It begins small. His smoky blue eyes strike hers until the air between them flickers. Her whispered suggestion blows the spark into a flame. A guarded heart. A relentless pursuit. An insatiable chemistry that yields to a torrid affair. "Alexis Stone" I tried to do things the right way. I wore the big white dress and rode off with Prince Charming. Then Charming changed his mind. See, that's the part they don't tell you; he can change his mind. These days, I don't put my heart in anyone's hands because I don't even know where I've left it. Enter Leo. Blue-eyed specimen of a man, stirring me awake in ways I never thought possible. I think I should indulge myself for once. Because one time is all I need. Then he goes and weaves simple, deliberate movements into pure, gilded pleasure. And I'm hooked.

Because every time I've dared to get close to someone, they've cracked me wide open. Why should this time be any different? **NOTE: This novel contains explicit language and content.
