    Summary

    (She’s not sure she’ll ever be ready to tell him how she isn’t sure she even knows what she wants. It was years of Martin taking what he wanted, telling her what it is she wanted and how she liked it. It was a night of Nicholas being rough and quick—all power and no affection. And she’s been denied affection—genuine, pure affection—from a man for so long. She’s hungry for it, starving for it.

    Hungry for him. Starving for him. Someone who understands her, has always seen her.)

    Summary

    She cries for the life she had taken from her, for the lives of Martin's victims that she could have saved, for the lives of her children--irrevocably damaged, for the feelings of loneliness and anger and sorrow that plague her, for the twenty years spent working tirelessly to put the past behind her and failing miserably.

    She turns her face into Gil's chest, lets the steady, soothing pounding of his heart beneath her ear ground her. It’s so easy—too easy—to press her face into his chest, to breathe in the scent of him: pine and gun oil and leather.

    But when she tries to pull away and apologize, tries to pull herself together, he tightens his hold on her, keeps her pressed against him. "You don't have to put yourself together right away, Jess. No one's here but you and me."

    "I'm a mess," she murmurs, voice muffled into the soft fabric of his shirt.

    She feels his laughter rumble through his chest. "I know."

    (But he's there for her anyway.)

    Summary

    The morning Jessica Milton turns eighteen and no soulmark appears on her skin is the same day whatever childish notions she’d had of love were locked away deep, deep down inside of her.

    Summary

    Once upon a time, she'd told him they were from different worlds and that it would never work out. But now Gil Arroyo is back in her life and proving just how much their worlds aren't so separate after all...
