Brian Harper has been caught in the middle of two crime bosses, he has chased down countless criminals, he had been in life-threatening situations countless times, but nothing has ever tested him quite like this. The struggle to get back to 100% after the explosion that nearly took his life is proving to be quite the uphill battle. 
Who could have guessed that physical healing would be easier than the mental struggles that he has to undergo? Can Brian push away his pride and sometimes blinding ego? Can he let those who love him help with his recovery? Or will he end up pushing away the only people he has left? 
Will Elise stand beside him? How can she when all he seems to want to do is argue? Can she handle the idea of him returning to the job that nearly ended his life? 
But the biggest question, at least for Brian, is he worthy of Elise's love?

The Scent and The Sapphire by thisissomewannabe

Prince Riccardo De L'Aquila. My driven, commanding, and insatiable husband. I'm ferociously addicted to him - being pleasured by him until I am sore and my breath is battered, to see him crave me with a need as fervor and blindingly fierce as mine. He is the most beautiful alpha-male I've ever known. Yet he is also the man who remains tormented at the core by the darkest shadows of his past and mine. Our excruciating past, harrowing sufferance, and constant need for love and permanency is what unites us and makes us entangled in a way nothing else can. I have surrendered myself to him - to let the scorching heat consume me. We are the two tortured souls who have allowed each other to know the deepest, darkest secrets we have been holding in our hearts for years. He is my match in every sense. Our life together is truly just the beginning. Now there is no going back or hiding secrets or avoiding sharing them by ending up tangled in sheets or wherever we can make rough, raw love that can make me forget my purpose of arguing with him or questioning him. Despite my complete submission to him, Rico has shown me that I can be loved intensely. And in turn, I have shown Rico that he is my entire universe, totally worthy of my love and that I belong to him in every sense. Our past has always been an unrelenting demon that has stemmed insecurities and nightmares in both of us, but together, there has been nothing that has kept us from healing from the torment of our past. At least till now. But it's never enough. His fierce need to protect me won't let him make me a part of his fight and I fear his hesitance might push me beyond the brink of devastation. No one has the power to break us, but us. Welcome to the final installment of The Scent Trilogy which is rife with intimacy and emotion - the pinnacle of explosive disagreements, of times where trust was proved and broken, of vows that will be put to the test.

⚠ Warning sexual content!!! ⚠ *Book 1 of the "Unexpected Lovestory" Series* She loved her husband more than her last breath. She was blinded, deafened and suffocated in his love. She gave him everything but he was a receiver, never a giver. The only things he gave was confusion.

He wanted her and everyone else he could get. But that all changed when Tobias Wrexler walked in... ©️ Copyright 2020 Demii Jada R. ©️ All Rights Reserved.
