Reckless (Special Edition): 4 (Chestnut Springs)
Theo Silva: a spirited bull rider, renowned for his way with women, an enticing blend of irresistible trouble.
And he regards me as if I'm his next irresistible treat.
However, I'm on the verge of liberating myself from a toxic marriage and have pledged to steer clear of men altogether. Consequently, when I reflect on the past, all I see is allure mixed with a generous helping of heartache.
Placing my faith in this man proves to be challenging enough—and resisting his allure is an even more formidable task.
In fact, it verges on the impossible. Theo's determination is unwavering. No matter how diligently I strive to keep my distance, he thaws my frosty exterior and dismantles all my barriers.
During a shared drink at a local tavern, my most guarded secrets spill out. Subsequently, I experience the most passionate night of my life with him.
He adores my body. He prompts my cheeks to redden. I come alive under his touch.
Then I command him to wipe the encounter from memory. I yearn for simplicity, and in his presence, everything becomes perplexingly intricate.
Originally intended to be a solitary event.
A concealed episode.
However, that insignificant plus sign is destined to render this secret utterly unsustainable.
