odessa /əʊˈdɛsə/ - one who receives pain.
The Great Odessa of Royal Hera was the talk of the town- a captivating hostess at Boston's most prestigious nightclub. With her irresistible charm, she had become the most sought-after hostess, with a waiting list stretching a month long. Those lucky enough to spend time with her often claimed she had a unique way of lightening their burdens, making their troubles seem to disappear in her presence. That was the power of her wicked charm- a mind capable of soothing souls. But the most wicked thing Odessa did was live a double life, one shrouded in secrecy that no one knew. A secret she was determined to take to the grave.
One fateful night, however, changed everything. Serving Aiden Conor, a heartbroken neurologist, turned Odessa's world upside down. What began as a glass of champagne led to alcohol-fueled conversation, and before she knew it, they ended up in bed together-a moment of weakness that she would come to regret. It could have been forgotten, a one-time mistake, if only their paths hadn't crossed again.
But universe had other plans. Odessa and Aiden met again at the most unexpected and unavoidable time, in circumstances that peeled away the layers of her carefully guarded identity. Now, Aiden knows the truth. And, to Odessa's surprise, he's captivated by it. The moment they speak again, Aiden falls deeply in love. For Odessa, however, love and drama are the last things she wants. All she craves is peace, far from the chaos of entanglements.
Can Odessa resist the magnetic pull of Dr. Aiden Conor while keeping her secrets buried? Or will his love unravel the quiet life she so desperately longs for?

Eli has known the pain and pleasure of feelings all his life. Now, he becomes Cora's compass in her chaotic new reality, guiding her through the wild storm of emotions and introducing her to a hidden world fighting for emotional freedom. Cora and Eli are drawn together by a bond neither can explain, a shared emotional journey that stands in quiet defiance against The Regimen's frigid rule.

"Please don't regret it. I- I could not take that." I'm lucky that there's water streaming down the side of my face from my hair so that he cannot see the tiny tear making its way down my cheek. His pupils widen and his throat bobs as he swallows the rest of his sentence down. Then he leans to the front and softly kisses the tear away. "Never in my life would a thought such as regretting a singular second I have spent with you cross my mind." And with that he pulls me close and hugs my naked shoulders, obviously not minding the water soaking his shirt. I inhale deeply and recite the words in my head like a magical spell. Never in my life would a thought such as regretting a singular second I have spent with you cross my mind. 3rd of March 2o24 #2 in #injury #4 in #clinic #8 in #hospitalComplete
