Saturday Night Heat: Derek. Saturday Night Heat, #4

"The moment our lips lock, it feels so at home and peaceful, I could kiss her all night long. Her plush lips and her warmth are everything I need to satisfy my soul."Derek Harvard has sworn off relationships-at forty-one, he's seen enough heartbreak to know love isn't worth the risk. But when he rescues headstrong lawyer Julie Parker from a collapsed cave, her fierce independence and razor-sharp attitude ignite something primal in him that he thought was long dead.
The twenty-three-year-old powerhouse doesn't need saving, which makes her irresistible to a man who's tired of being everyone's hero. Their explosive chemistry leads to passionate nights that awaken Julie's submissive side, balancing her courtroom dominance with Derek's bedroom command. Despite their eighteen-year age gap, they discover a connection that transcends logic-until Julie's insecurities and assumptions threaten to destroy everything they've built together.
When jealousy and miscommunication tear them apart, Derek must prove that some love stories are worth fighting for, no matter the odds. But can a man who's given up on forever convince a woman who's never believed in it that they're meant to be each other's salvation?
