"Sam Anderson has been cautious over men after her boyfriend cheated on her, but things have changed when Phoenix comes into the picture. 

Phoenix Williams comes back to the town he swore not to revisit. He’s a cocky, confident, and relentless businessman—the type of man Sam despised. Surprisingly, the same qualities draw Phoenix closer to her. 

He also treats her like a princess. But like most relationships, there are always ups and downs—their relationships tested by their pasts—the past that brings them closer, and the same past can change their lives forever."

Teasing Phoenix

　　I’m already in love with Phoenix before I even realize.


　　Phoenix sent me a message ten minutes ago that he’s on his way. My bonding day with Mom turns into cleaning and grocery day. I feel exhausted after cooking for dinner.


　　They might not taste like a menu from the restaurant, but they aren’t bad either.


　　I wear a light brown V cut mini dress and match it with a golden belt and golden sandals. I apply black eyeliner and gold eyeshadow, blush on, and red rose lipstick.


　　I wipe my sweating palm to my flat tummy to ease the little crease. I actually do that because I feel nervous to see Phoenix again, and I hope mom is going to like him.


　　I have to behave and keep my hands off of Phoenix when he arrives. After five minutes of staying calm, I sneak downstairs. Mom is still in her room. The doorbell rings the moment I step my foot on the floor. Good timing.


　　“Phoenix!” I squeal and throw myself into his arms.


　　He catches and wraps me into his arms with a chuckle.
