Once Is Never Enough

She only wanted one night. He was the one man she should never have wanted at all. Heather Vale knows better than to fall for a married man. Unfortunately, knowing better has never stopped her from wanting Adrian Mercer. Controlled, successful, and maddeningly unavailable, Adrian has spent months pretending the heat between them doesn't exist. Heather has spent just as long wondering what it would take to finally make him lose control.
She tells herself it's only lust. One night. One mistake. One chance to get him out of her system. But Adrian isn't willing to betray the vows he made, even when his marriage is already quietly falling apart. And when the truth about his relationship finally forces him to choose what comes next, Heather discovers that getting Adrian into bed was never the real danger. Falling for him is. What begins as forbidden attraction turns into something neither of them planned: stolen glances become honest conversations, temptation becomes tenderness, and the man Heather thought she wanted for one night becomes the man she can't imagine walking away from.
But when rumors about their relationship threaten Heather's career and reopen wounds from her past, desire won't be enough to hold them together. Adrian will have to prove that choosing Heather isn't an escape from his old life. And Heather will have to decide whether she's brave enough to stop running from the one thing she never meant to want. A steamy, angsty contemporary romance about forbidden attraction, workplace tension, jealousy, emotional vulnerability, and two imperfect people learning that love isn't about losing control, it's about choosing each other when walking away would be easier.
Once Is Never Enough features a determined heroine, an older emotionally guarded hero, slow-burning chemistry, a complicated marriage ending, hard-earned trust, and a satisfying happily ever after.
