Livinia Jacobs grudgingly ran from the love of her life with his child in her womb and into the arms of another man. She never thought she'd see Dean Stone again. Eleven years later, she finds herself widowed in a picturesque little coastal town and her past has come back to haunt her. Livinia was completely aware of her lack of control in Dean's presence. Heck, that was half the attraction in the first place, but her secret kept her feet firmly on the ground and her heart guarded from the once youthful dream of a future with him. Dean forgot the most important thing of all about Livinia—she was his addiction. Ten minutes with her and he craved her touch again, wanted to hold her, to feel her soft naked skin against his, to kiss those supple, pink lips. Hell, he wanted her period. Can he forgive her and prove he's no longer the scared boy he once was, but the man she needed him to be—a man she could trust with her heart, no matter the sacrifice?
