Kristi and Paul are drawn together by a desire they never expected.
Kristi is a beautiful Southern California woman, her body marked by a devastating car accident and her heart still raw from divorce.
Paul is a high school physics teacher, quietly undone by failure in graduate school and the loss of the only woman he ever loved.
Kristi cannot explain her hunger for Paul. His magnetic blue eyes, runner’s body, and confident, sensual touch are nothing like her tall, successful ex-husband. Yet she aches to feel Paul.
Paul is captivated by Kristi’s beauty, stunning figure, and quiet vulnerability. She was raised to be a perfect trophy wife, but she has never known true sexual pleasure.
They fight their attraction until it consumes them. Setting aside fear and the future, they surrender to a passion that transforms them both. Steamy, witty, and emotionally rich, this is a story of desire rediscovered, lives reshaped, and two people awakened by love.
