[18+] Mark just wants a quiet life. With plenty of action at work, he has no interest in bringing the drama home with him. But he does need a flatmate, and when blonde bombshell Zoe crashes onto the scene, she's more than he bargained for.
Zoe is all about Communication. She hasn't had much luck with it. For example, her ex didn't communicate that he liked cheating on her more than he liked being faithful. And now she's living with a man who hates talking.
They're not what each other want, but one steamy night together changes everything.
Over the course of 15 years, a friendship forms, one that's tested with romance, sex, and heartbreak. Can they survive the ultimate test of time, or are polar opposites always destined to stay apart?

"As I passionately kiss your lips and breathe all of you in, release your pain to me; let me inhale it and let my soothing touch heal your broken soul.
--------
What starts as soft glares and innocent forehead kisses turns into something more carnal, deeper and wickedly tempting to explore.
She isn't looking for true love, a concept she has given up on searching for. What her soul burns for is a man's touch to set her body ablaze and consume her completely in a whirlwind of intense pleasure and ecstasy.
He desires a vibrant woman to do all the wickedly sinful things burning in his mind to, one who can unleash the dominant beast in him and torture sensually with all the pleasure he has to offer.
She seems to be all he's ever needed and maybe someone whose heart he can heal and stitch back in place piece by piece until it can beat hard in her chest again and say his name.
But nothing ever comes on a silver platter, especially with loads of drama and misfortunes tailing each one of them from sources closer than they could ever imagine.
