He was the plague she should have stayed away from, but she fell for his charm. When their wrong decisions caught up to them, he left.


And just when she thought she had moved on, he is back—in her workplace and in her life, with no intention of ever leaving.

His presence makes her think of things that should never cross her mind, but that is nothing compared to him trapping her against the wall.

His brows furrowed. "Did something happen?"
