What force of nature is more dangerous than love? Desire.

Desire is just as potent as love but more deadly and the high is so addictive that most would say the consequences are worth it. Most except for Julian Doyle. He's guilty of both Love and Desire, and because of this recklessness, he has watched the world change for over a century.

Cion has lived her life with the knowledge that the world is not as it seems. Sprites, ghosts, and demons live among the masses, and she is one of the 'lucky' few to know it. 

Cion and Julien are two completely different supernatural beings. Will they be able to withstand the forces trying to keep them apart?

To kiss him sober is out of my league. But somehow with all these excuses, I still close my eyes and brace for him. I want to feel the heat of his lips but feel nothing. His breath is on my ear as he mutters, "Your name is beautiful."

Poisoned By Desire

I laid in Julien’s arms and let my mind drift away. I listen to the beat of his heart and feel my own beating in time with his. His touch is gentle and comforting. I melt into his body and the feel of his firm body sends sparks between my thighs. 


I snuggle closer to him, and he stiffens under me. My excitement bubbles as my imagination whirls with the things he could do to me. My memory chose the worst moment to remind me how much I love his touch. Instinctively, I grasp his hand and kiss his knuckles lightly. He shifts behind me, and the mass of his length slides across my cheeks.


“I know what you’re doing,” his voice rumbles.


Instead of responding, I turn in his arms and trap his lips in a kiss. The familiar heat swells between us, and his resolve vanishes. Without releasing my mouth, he wraps my legs around his hips and lays me on the mattress. The wetness of my core soaked my panties as he strokes me through my clothes.
