Even when he was speaking to the chandelier, Leif said everything I’d ever wanted to hear. He cared for me so intensely it made my heart flutter. But secrets and omissions were also things I was just not ready to deal with. *** *This steamy light romance novella is filled with feel-good moments, some heat, and of course, a HEA.* Please click the author’s name for the email list and website.
