DESIRE AFTER THE RAIN
Two hearts that never sought love somehow found themselves in its crossfire. Desire had always been hungry not for a hand to hold, not for whispered promises, but for success that would make her name matter. Every choice she made, every risk she took, was fueled by that relentless fire burning inside her. Love was a luxury she couldn't afford. Rowan, meanwhile, lived tethered to a ghost. His heart belonged to someone who had walked out of his life but never left his memory. He wasn't looking for another; he was only surviving, counting the days in quiet solitude, haunted by what once was. And then Desire appeared a spark he didn't expect, a force he didn't know he needed. They collided, brushed against each other's edges, and for a moment, it seemed like something could bloom. But they both knew better. Desire could not pause for love, and Rowan could not unchain his past. while Rowan thought he had lost Desire to ambition, and Desire believed Rowan was lost to memory, neither realized that in their fleeting connection, they had already changed each other. Desire's fire had awakened a part of Rowan he thought was buried forever, and Rowan's quiet depth had given Desire a glimpse of something more than hunger. Did Desire ever find a reason to love, or was success always enough to fill the emptiness inside her? Did Rowan finally let go of the ghost of his past, or did it follow him quietly, like a shadow he could never shake?
SNAPSHOTS & SIZZLE
The first time Isla Carter met Leo Hayes, she wanted to throw her camera at him. "Hey, watch it, Princess," Leo growled, steadying a tray full of plated entrées that nearly toppled to the ground. Isla's eyes narrowed. "Maybe don't walk into the middle of my shot, Chef." She had been hired to do a feature on 'Hayes & Co.,' Leo's high-end restaurant, but from the moment she stepped into his kitchen, they had been at war. He found her presence distracting, while she found his arrogance unbearable. "You're in my kitchen," Leo pointed out, leaning close, his voice low. "Playing too many little games might get you in trouble, Princess." Isla bristled. "I don't play games, Chef. I win them." With that, she turned, snapping a picture of his scowl before marching away, leaving Leo to smirk. He didn't know whether to be annoyed or intrigued. Either way, he had a feeling Isla Carter wasn't leaving his life anytime soon.Complete
