Synopsis
He kissed her tenderly, then bent again to her center, stroking her with his tongue while easing another finger inside. Slowly, carefully, he stretched her, coaxing her body to welcome him.
When she whimpered his name, he could no longer hold back. He moved over her, positioning himself at her entrance. “Clara…” His voice was thick with emotion.
Adrian Cole, the city’s wealthiest heir, hides behind the name Ethan Hayes to uncover betrayal in his empire. What he doesn’t expect is Clara—overlooked, unloved, yet brimming with quiet strength. She falls for Ethan, the poor man who treasures her. But when the mask comes off and she learns he is Adrian Cole, will love survive the lies?
