LINDEN
When I literally crashed and burned, soaked in the gasoline of bad decisions and alcohol, it was time to take a hard look at my life and make some changes. The night I lost the man that I thought I was going to love forever changed everything. It set me on a new path.
I cling to my sobriety because without it I’d float into the void of loss and nothingness I was headed toward one way or another. If it hadn’t been him, would it have been me? I’ll never know, but I keep moving forward.
When Luca, whose heartbeat feels so familiar under my palms, comes into my life, it’s another crash and another change in trajectory. Can we fix the pieces of ourselves which have always been broken? What secrets does he hide behind his charming smiles? Why does it feel like he knows me? Why does it feel like I already love him?
LUCA
I grew up in the shadow of my family and my brothers. They protected me and sheltered me. I don’t blame them considering how sickly I was growing up. Everyone was always so careful around me.
Weak. Breakable. What no one ever saw was that I was already broken and hiding. Because of the man I couldn’t be with the rest of the Agosti men looming over me and my body a betrayal from my first breath.
I got a new lease on life when I finally got the heart transplant I needed, but there’s a yearning inside of me. I’m compelled to find out about the man who had my heart and when I see Linden, I know why. She's mine. She becomes my obsession, an addiction I was never able to have before. I’ll stand between her and anything that wants to harm her, including the ashes of loss she’s risen from. Will the secrets between us and how our paths connect tear us apart or bring us together?
**18+. This story has dark themes and a morally gray hero. You’ll still find an insta-love story that is spicy and isn’t necessarily simple, but with darker themes, situations, stalking and touches on issues of addiction. No cheating with a guaranteed HEA. This book is part of my Agosti Crime Family series but can be read as a standalone. Meet the Agosti family in Flames and Flowers.
