One night changed everything. Eight years healed nothing. Fate won't be denied twice. OdetteHe was mine for a single night, only to vanish for eight long years. I rebuilt myself from the ashes he left behind, clawing my way to success. Now he's back, standing at the side of my biggest client yet. He thinks fate will hand me over again. He doesn't realize I'm no longer the naïve, desperate girl he left behind. RelyI thought I could have her once and bury the memory forever. Instead, I've lived in torment for years, working undercover as a crime lord's right-hand man by day and dreaming of her by night. I might have been foolish enough to leave her behind before, but not this time. No matter the cost, she will be mine.
