The heart always wants what it can't have... Duty, honor, and sacrifice. Dedicating my life to these elements, for family and country, leaves little for myself in return. It’s why I indulge in a no-strings hookup with a handsome stranger mere days before heading half-a-world away. Except one night turns into a week-long fling, creating a connection at the most inopportune time. And neither of us want it to end. Staying in touch is easy at first, but dwindles to radio silence and distant memories as time passes. I didn’t expect him to reemerge in my life months later, now belonging to someone else. It should be enough for us both to walk away. To push down this relentless, aching want. But we don’t… We can't. Because the heart always wants what it can’t have.

CE Ricci is an international best-selling author who enjoys plenty of things in her free time, but writing about herself in the third person isn’t one of them. She is currently based out of Southern Michigan with her dogs, where she spends most of her days chilling lakeside or on hiking trails with a camera in hand. She’s addicted to all things photography, plants, peaks, puppies, and paperbacks, not necessarily in that order. Music is her love language, and traveling the country (and world) is the way she chooses to find most of her inspiration for whatever epic love story she will tell next! CE Ricci is represented by Weaver Literary Agency. For all subsidiary rights, please contact: weaverliteraryagencygmail.com Join CE Ricci's reader group here! https://www.facebook.com/groups/wreck...
