Five years ago, Elena Carter made the hardest decision of her life—she walked away from Damien Cross, the only man she ever loved. To protect him from her family's enemies, she disappeared without explanation, leaving him heartbroken and betrayed.
Now, she's back. Successful, confident, and determined to win him back at any cost.
But Damien isn't the same man she left behind. He's built an empire, erected walls around his heart, and sworn never to let her hurt him again. Cold, guarded, and impossibly distant, he refuses to hear her explanations or feel anything for her.
Except he does.
The moment their eyes meet, the fire between them reignites—dangerous, consuming, impossible to ignore. Every accidental touch, every heated argument, every stolen glance threatens to burn down the carefully controlled life he's built.
Elena knows she hurt him. She knows he has every right to hate her. But she also knows they're meant to be together, and she'll use every weapon in her arsenal—including the undeniable chemistry that still crackles between them—to break through his defenses.
Damien tells himself he won't fall again. He can't. But when she looks at him with those desperate, hungry eyes, when she gets close enough that he can smell her perfume, when she whispers his name like a prayer...
How long can he resist before he gives in to the dangerous temptation of their reunion?
Some pasts are too powerful to stay buried. Some loves are too dangerous to resist.
