Rose, a nurse in financial distress, is introduced to the underworld when she agrees to treat a drug dealer, Lex, and his associates in a secret, after-hours capacity. Despite her fear, she proves herself capable under pressure, treating an injured man at Lex's insistence. Impressed, Lex employs her, leading her deeper into a dangerous lifestyle. As she becomes more entangled, her moral boundaries are tested and she begins to embrace the thrill of power and control. When faced with a betrayal from within Lex's ranks, she takes matters into her own hands, killing a corrupt detective.
The story escalates as they prepare for a tense confrontation with those who have turned against them. Lex insists on keeping her hidden for her safety, but Rose, now transformed by her experiences, insists on being present at the meeting. As they wait, Lex cannot help but be both aroused and terrified by the newfound strength in her, reflecting on how she's changed since their first encounter.
The tale unfolds with a tapestry of suspense, blurring the lines between good and evil, as Rose's journey from a compassionate caregiver to a hardened player in a dangerous game continues to evolve.

We Dream at Midnight (Ember 2)
Here she is. I can see the slope of her spine through that thin shirt. She's made of angles I ache to smooth with a hand, but I'd use my lips if she asked. I brush her knuckles with mine. Her skin is cold, but she flips her palm for more contact. I lace our fingers. It's enough to make her look at me. As those kaleidoscopic eyes meet mine, I hold my breath. Then she sets her lips just under my jaw. It rips the air from my lungs. It's the softest thing I've ever felt. "What was that for," I breathe. She pulls back, lashes damp, and whispers, "You're the kind of person that should be kissed." 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 BOOK TWO C O N T A I N S : ❤︎ mature content ❤︎ romance & friendship ❤︎ yearning Copyright © 2021-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

"Fine, so when am I going to see you?" I asked, pushing aside my doubts and hoping for a different answer this time. There was a pause on the other end of the line before Bobby replied, his tone serious. "I can't promise you that, sweetheart." His response stung, and I couldn't help but feel a pang of hurt. "You don't trust me, do you?" I asked, my voice tinged with disappointment. But there was no reply. "Hello?" I prompted, hoping for some reassurance. ©Krystalfrancis2020 (NB: THIS BOOK WAS REWRITTEN FROM MY ORGINAL PROFILE. THIS IS THE NEW VERSION OF THE BOOK DUE TO ADJUSTMENTS)Complete
