Getting close is dangerousâĶÂ
Heâs too close, and I start to fidget, needing to keep my hands busy so they wonât grab hold of his shirt. Because thatâs what they want to do. Draw him closer. So I can Inhale his scent. Taste his skin.Â
I didnât run because I was in an abusive relationship; I ran because my soul was being crushed. Iâd forgotten how to live, how to be happy. Running out of gas in a small town, I catch the eye of the local sheriff when the very last thing I want is to come under the scrutiny of the police. I left my boyfriend with blood on my hands, and I know as soon as the wound heals heâll come looking for me.Â
Adam Madison draws me to him so easily I canât even pretend to fight. And the closer we get, the more combustible we become. Iâve never experienced such passion or power. My need is as great as his, but Iâm sure heâll walk away from me once he knows my secret. No other man would stay.Â
Iâve had enough complications in my life. Iâm not looking for more, and thatâs exactly what Adam isâa sexy, magnetic complication with secrets of his own. And with my ex on the hunt, I canât risk bringing him down with me. But he wonât leaveâĶeven when vengeance could kill us both.
