LOGINRiley Thompson turned her deepest heartbreak into a successful career writing filthy, bestselling erotica. After catching her fiancé having sex with her cousin on their wedding day, she vowed never to let anyone close enough to hurt her again. Now she lives by her own rules: Pleasure without emotion, sex without strings attached. Only Mila, her fiercely loyal best friend and the one person who never abandoned her and has ever managed to slip past her walls. But when she meets Jayson Woods, wealthy, magnetic, and dangerously addictive — one reckless night of raw, mind-blowing sex shatters her boundaries. What begins as a no-strings fling quickly spirals into a secret, obsessive affair. As Riley dives deeper into a world of desire, blurred boundaries, and sexual exploration, the connection between her and Mila begins to shift into something neither of them can ignore. And while Jayson awakens Riley’s darkest cravings, it is Mila who slowly uncovers the fragile heart Riley has spent years trying to bury. Raw, emotional, and intensely intimate. This is a story about heartbreak, healing, self-discovery, and finding love in the one place Riley never expected

Riley asked, squeezing my hand as we pulled up to my parents' place."No," I said honestly. "I'm literally about to have a heart attack.""Your father already had the growth moment," she said. "He apologized. He asked to have dinner with me. He's not gonna be a dick.""You don't know that," I said. "He could be. He's good at being a dick."She laughed and kissed my forehead. "I can handle your dad, babe. Trust me."But as we walked up to the door, I realized I was more nervous about this than I'd been about anything in months. This was my father finally meeting the woman I was going to marry. This was him seeing if he could actually accept her.My mother opened the door before I could even knock."Jayson," she said, pulling me into a hug. Then she looked at Riley. "And you must be Riley.""I am," Riley said, extending her hand. "It's nice to meet you, Mrs. Woods.""Please, call me M
✦ ❦ ✦Riley Pov✦ ❦ ✦The email came on a Friday afternoon.I was at my desk, working on edits for my second book, when my inbox pinged. It was from some major production company — one of the big ones. The ones that make actual movies.*Subject: Film Adaptation Interest — Sex Exploration*My hands literally shook as I opened it.They wanted to adapt my book into a feature film. A major motion picture. With a real director and real actors and a real budget. They were calling it "a groundbreaking narrative about love, vulnerability, and female agency in the modern world."I read it three times.Then I called Valentina."Oh my God," she screamed when I told her. "Riley, this is massive. This is life-changing. Do you understand what this means?"I did. I understood exactly what it meant.It meant my story — the real, raw, exposed version of my life — was gonna be on screens everywhere. It meant millions of people would watch me navigate that video leak. It meant everything I'd kept private
❈❈ Jayson Pov ❈❈My phone rang on a Tuesday morning.Unknown number. I almost didn't answer, but something made me pick up."Jayson," my father's voice came through, and he sounded different. Older. Tired."Dad?" I said. My heart was already racing."Can you come to the office?" he asked. "I need to talk to you. In person.""Is everything okay?" I asked."No," he said. "But I'm trying to make it okay."I told Riley I was going out and drove to the office in a daze. My father wanted to talk to me. Actually wanted to have a conversation. That hadn't happened in months.The office felt different when I walked in. Smaller somehow. Less important. I went up to his office and knocked even though it was my father's door."Come in," he said.He was sitting behind his massive desk, looking smaller than I remembered. Older. His hair was grayer. His face looked tired."Hi," I said, sitting down across from him."Hi," he replied. We sat in silence for a moment."Your mother finally told me off,"
❈❈Cassie Pov❈❈I don't know why I offered to help them take care of Jayson.Actually, I do know. It was guilt. It was nostalgia. It was some weird part of me that wanted to be part of their world again, even though I knew that ship had sailed.But they accepted immediately, like it was the most natural thing in the world. Like Cassie being there was just... normal.So I found myself at their Brooklyn apartment, helping Riley change Jayson's bandages while Mila made soup in the kitchen.He was in a lot of pain. The doctors had given him meds but he was trying not to take them because they made him drowsy. So instead he was just grimacing through everything, being stubborn as hell."You're an idiot," I said, adjusting the pillows behind him."I know," he said. "But at least I'm a cute idiot.""Debatable," I replied.Riley came back with fresh bandages and we worked together to change them. Our hands kept brushing and I felt this weird electricity. Like my body was remembering wh
Days blurred together after we got back home. Not bad blurred—just heavy. We were talking again, really talking, but not about the obvious thing. We'd sit up late over coffee that went cold, or I'd find Dave already at the kitchen table when I came down in the morning, like he'd been awake for hou
I woke up to gray light bleeding through the curtains we forgot to close last night. My body felt destroyed in that specific way—sore in places that reminded me exactly what happened, muscles aching from positions and exertion I wasn't used to. The room was quiet except for the air conditioner's lo
The hotel suite smelled like fresh linen and expensive candles when the four of us stepped inside. It was one of those high-end downtown places with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city lights stretching out like a map of possibility, a massive king bed positioned perfectly to catch the gl
The next few days were a strange mix of tension and tentative excitement.Claire and Ryan. Mid-thirties, experienced swingers. Their photos were tasteful but clear: Claire with sultry curves, dark hair falling past her shoulders, a wicked smile that suggested she knew exactly what she wanted; Ryan
