BOOK TWO in the STEAMY FORBIDDEN ROMANCE series -- please read BOOK ONE, Illicit, before proceeding with this novel! Coralie Watson, now living in NYC to focus on her singer/songwriter career, has landed herself in quite the predicament. Stuck in a long-distance relationship with heart-throb Michael, she gets swept into an affair with none other than Ryan--the dreamy hunk from her past who is now magically available to her, exclusively. But the universe isn't done throwing her past at her and tempting her with explicit desires. As she tries to figure out how to break-up with Michael--with Ryan's insistent urging--another previous lover resurfaces. And his way with words and otherworldly eyes and taste for thrills steals her breath away, tugging her far from Ryan, and farther still from Michael. This newcomer offers nothing but a drink to catch up--but Coralie is all too familiar with this tune. Yet her gut instinct is to accept, to meet with him for good old time's sake. How does the expression go again? Oh, right--what's the harm in that? ♥♥♥ This is a work of FICTION. It will have fairly explicit language & sexual content (but I'll put warnings at the top of those chapters, in case those make you uncomfortable--though, hey, YOU CAME BACK FOR THAT, DIDN'T YOU?!)
