Naomi doesn't make reckless decisions.
She makes calculated ones.
Until Elijah.
He watches her like he already knows she's staying.
Touches her like he isn't in a rush.
Moves like a man who's used to control and used to getting what he wants.
Their connection was meant to be physical.
Simple.
Contained.
But silk sheets don't ask questions.
And midnight has a way of softening the rules.
The deeper she falls into his world, the harder it becomes to leave before morning.
And when she finally asks the one question she's been avoiding--
She realizes some trouble doesn't destroy you.
Some trouble changes you.
