Unapologetically carnal, and absolutely worth it.

It wasn't love at first sight. It was lust at first breath. Dominic Marchesi didn't just kiss Kathryn; he claimed her. He pressed her to the wall of his hotel room, dropped to his knees, and made her moan his name.

Kathryn Foster was supposed to be untouchable—a New York screenwriter with walls too high to climb. But one look from Dominic, and she was undone and pulled into the gravity of his touch. Stripped bare by the way he said her name like a promise... and a prayer.

Two passionate nights and one unforgettable day in the city. They didn't just sleep together. They devoured each other. And when it ended, she tried to forget. But he made sure she couldn't.

Dominic tattooed her nickname on his skin. Wrote her into his music. Posted about her every day, letting her and the world know how he feels. Now he's oceans away from her, at home in Florence, juggling his acting career and being a single dad to his two boys. He is dreaming about Kathryn... her mouth, her scent, her gasp when he bit her shoulder and told her, "You're mine now, baby."

And she's still aching and waking up soaked in memory. Because some nights aren't just unforgettable, they're unforgivable if they end.

Dominic Marchesi has no intention of letting her go. Not when he's tasted what forever feels like.

Bonus for fans of Everything Happens for a Reason : Max and Natalie make a special appearance, weaving another layer of fate and love into Kathryn's world.
