Wings of the Heart

She's fighting to save her home. He's building the dream that will destroy it. But one night from their past still holds them together…

Elise Monroe has always believed second chances should be for everyone else. As the passionate coordinator of Riverside Arts Center, she's dedicated her life to keeping the doors open for downtrod artists and troubled children. But her world is turned on its head when the center is to be torn down… to make way for a luxury high-rise dreamed up by no less than Lucas Hayes—the ruthlessly clever architect she never anticipated to set eyes on again since their unforgettable night of passion.

Lucas built his reputation on clean breaks and fearless vision. Haunted by the betrayal that wrecked his childhood, he doesn't do roots, attachments, or messy feelings. Not with a woman like Elise, whose blaze threatens to burn down every wall he has built around himself.

When circumstances force them to come together unwillingly—planning an art gala that could restore the tower and the center to its former glory—they will be forced to confront the tension that has been brewing between them… and the secrets that neither of them had wanted to say.

When fireworks fly and wounds open up, Elise and Lucas have to decide: Will they cling to the past that had wounded them—take a leap for a future that neither of them had ever dared to imagine?
