Elsy Alexander hooked up with her best friends’ brother but there’s just one teeny…tiny…little detail. He does not remember…or does he?
What will happen when Wyatt Whitney realizes that his fears and regret might keep him from the one thing that he wants the most.
This spicy read has exploration is more explicit between characters that may include dirty talk, detailed intimate moments, or suggested desire of what they would like to do with their partner. This moment might also be expressed before, during, or after intimacy, spicy e-mails, letters, or texting.
Readers can expect multiple detailed scenes or moments that leave no doubt there is a medium level of heat.
I received an advance reader copy from the author for an honest and fair review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
