Broken & Bound

At a party overflowing with music, laughter, and reckless abandon, two strangers intoxicated by alcohol and desire surrendered to a night neither would forget. Or so it seemed. One remembers every detail vividly. The other dismisses it as nothing more than a hazy, fleeting dream. But fate is never so easily rewritten.

Xavier Campbel had it all. As the only heir to a business empire, he was raised with wealth, power, and privilege. With the face of a Greek god and a reputation as a relentlessness playboy, he was accustomed to getting away with everything, shielded by his parent's influence. But years later, the arrogant golden boy of Los Angeles is gone. A near fatal accident and the weight of his inheritance forced him to change. Now at twenty nine, he is the ruthless yet disciplined CEO of Campbel's Corporation, a man who commands respect and tolerates no weakness. The past is behind him until fate decides otherwise.

Rosabel King once believed life could be beautiful. A gifted artist with a beauty that could rival any model, she had dreams bigger than the world around her. But dreams don't pay bills. At twenty three, she struggles to keep afloat, working as a waitress in Chicago while carrying the weight of a sick mother, a younger sister, and a past she wishes she could erase. A past that still haunts her. A past that sometimes feels like a mistake one she can never take back.

Two souls, bound by a forgotten night, are about to cross paths again.
One will recognize
The other it was still a dream
But neither can escape what was written in the stars.
