Joey Thompson is everything Ashley Morris's overprotective father fears--a reckless risk, a storm she willingly runs into.
Pierre Grimaldi is everything her father wants--safe, stable, the kind of man any parent would dream of for their daughter.
With Joey, love is a rush--wild, consuming, impossible to ignore.
With Pierre, love is steady--secure, comforting, certain.
Joey's kiss leaves Ashley breathless, dizzy, craving more.
Pierre's kiss is gentle, confident, perfect in a way that should make sense.
As Pierre holds her close, Ashley realizes that love is supposed to be easy and simple like this. But love has never made her want to scream, fight, or fall apart the way Joey does. And no matter how hard Pierre tries, no matter how safe he becomes, Ashley's heart has only ever belonged to one man.
But what happens when safety becomes temptation? And when the man she loves is the one who might destroy her?

His eyes meet mine and I have to let out a shaky breath, holding on tight to him to keep myself stable.
