    They seem destined for happiness—but the truth can’t be left behind for long. 
     
    Jen Fletcher is grateful to have a job. Any job. Even the boring, daily grind as a courier. Except for Thursdays, when her regular route swings through the swanky side of town, and she gets to flirt with Suzanne Dixon. A dark-haired beauty who dazzles in everything from sweats to business suits. Whose briefest touch sends heat racing through Jen’s body. 
     
    For those few precious minutes, Jen can forget she’s an ex-schoolteacher. And an ex-con. 
     
    Three years into widowhood, and Suzanne is finally ready to move on. No one is more surprised than she is that it's a mild-mannered courier who jump-starts her mind—and libido. Confident, sexy, a little masculine, Jen is an oasis in Suzanne’s otherwise dreary week. 
     
    When Suzanne boldly asks Jen out, Jen can’t bring herself to reveal her past right off the bat. But she didn’t expect their relationship to become so perfect, so fast. Inevitably, the truth comes out. By the time they realize they’re falling for each other, the rift between them may be too great to repair . . .

    Aayan Denir knows Garrett Hillier was once a high-powered defense attorney, and—thanks to a leaked photograph—he knows Garrett is sexually submissive, which makes him ideally qualified to defend Aayan's brother from the charge of murdering his sub. Aayan would do anything to protect Syed, even if he doesn't understand how Syed could hurt someone he loves. He could never hurt Garrett. He only wants to take care of him—love him, serve him, cherish him. And maybe torture him. Just a little. 
    Garrett probably shouldn’t be dating his client’s brother. Right? And what’s the use in a confirmed sub dating a guy who doesn’t want to be a Dom anyway? The important thing is to get Syed cleared of the discriminatory murder charge he’s facing. Aayan is a distraction. But for the first time in the three lonely years since Garrett’s husband died, he’s feeling hope, ambition, and desire. Can he give up the pain he craves to find the love he needs? 
    As Syed’s trial date looms, Aayan and Garrett explore what a BDSM relationship means for them, and what they mean to each other.
