He kissed her in the shadows. It was mind-blowing, passionate, hot and daring. But when Miranda removed the blindfold from her eyes, she didn't expect that the man she hated was the one she was making love with. It was supposed to be his fiance’, Fiore. Her three years boyfriend whom she thought had given her virginity. Instead, she was mistakenly devirginized by his fiance’s best friend, Xylon Diaz. 

Fiore was furious and no more weddings will take place. Miranda hated Xylon to the depths of the earth. But she will be forced to live with Xyle because they were stranded in the ancient country house in the middle of the woods. Until such time that her body felt differently. She wants Xyle to kiss her. She wants that one night with Xyle to happen once again.

When Fiore returns, Miranda has to choose. The man she promised her heart or the man her body is longing for.

Kiss in the Shadow

I WAS trying to hide the awful look on my face by hugging the black pillow. I could hear the familiar, sentimental music around me. Simultaneous with the familiar voices while I shut my mind of everything. 


"Camish, let’s leave her alone. Mir has been like that since she came back from Hong Kong." 


"Did that jerk do something bad to you? Tell me. I knew that Fiore was an arse!" 


I cried even more. I wanted to disappear like a bubble. To be driven away by the wind and completely be erased. 


I hate this feeling. I felt betrayed and chastised. Even though I kept on telling myself not to cry, my eyes were so stubborn. 


"Mir, we'll leave your food here, okay. Eat. Don't starve yourself, cous." 


A comforting hand caressed my hair. "I wish you could tell us what happened, Angel. We promise we won't criticize you. We're your family. We love you, cous. Even if you're so stubborn." I sobbed at those last words.
