LOGINBlurb **She's promised to his brother... but branded by his touch. And now the past refuses to stay buried.** *** **SIENNA** I thought I buried that night. The night I gave myself to a stranger. Reckless and wild. No names. No rules. No future. Just heat. Desperation. A body that made me forget who I was supposed to be. Now I wear his brother's ring. Planning a future with the man I'm supposed to love. Then he walks into my engagement party and everything shatters. Landon Callahan. The black sheep. The rebel. The man who touched me before I knew his name. He acts like I never existed. Like that night was nothing. But I remember every breath. Every broken rule. Every moment I came alive. I should walk away. Should marry Noah and forget. But Landon has always been the fire I was never meant to touch twice. *** ** **LANDON** She was never supposed to be his. The night I had her, I didn't ask her name. Didn't want to know. I just knew I'd never forget the way she looked at me. Like I was the only thing she ever wanted. Then I walk into the engagement party I should have skipped. And see her standing beside my brother. Now I'm back in the world I swore I'd left behind. And she's the one thing I can't outrun. She wears his ring. Smiles like she hasn't been in my bed. Pretends I never made her come undone. But I remember. And so does she. One night should have been the end. Instead it was only the beginning. Because I don't let go of what's mine. Not even for my brother.

Blinking against brightness.The room was unfamiliar. Then memory came rushing back.The beach house. Landon. Last night.She stretched. Body aching in the best way. Sheets soft against skin.Outside, ocean waves hummed. Steady. Soothing. Like breathing.She felt something she hadn't felt in forever.Safe.The smell hit her then. Coffee. Something cooking. Food sizzling.She sat up. Looked around.Landon wasn't beside her."He cooks?" She whispered to the empty room. Small smile tugging her lips.She got up. Barefoot. Cold floor against warm feet.She wore his shirt. Too big. Falling off one shoulder. Draping down past her thighs.She walked toward the kitchen. Following the smell.
