Synopsis
Thirty years ago, my father became the other half of a broken love story.
A relationship he’s kept hidden for decades.
Upon unearthing his secret through a series of emails in our paper’s archives, I began my search for the truth. Haunted by my father’s love story, and in my quest for answers, I never imagined I would discover a love of my own. Or that my love for Easton Crowne would be key in discovering the reason behind what split our parents up.
Doomed from the start and knowing the havoc our relationship would inevitably wreak on our families, I could never have prepared for the toll it would take or the cost of the truth.
But in order to find our ending, we had to go back to their beginning.
My name is Natalie Butler, and this is my star-crossed love story.

“So, you don’t hate me?”
“No,” he answers, quickly crowding me on the sidewalk, his potent, desire-filled gaze destroying my will to keep him at arm’s length.
“Not even a little?”
“No, but do you want a little more clarity?”
“Think I can handle it?”
His lips lift in a barely-there grin. “You’re a little more villain than you think.”
“Yeah,” I sigh. “I have to agree with that.”
“We all have one in us,” he imparts.
“You’re completely different than I thought you would be,” I admit, “but in the best way.” He towers over me as my limbs thrum with the gorgeous distraction taking up every inch of my headspace.
“Easton, maybe I’ve been presumptuous in thinking…but if I wasn’t,” I whisper as his body cradles mine without contact, the invisible thread between us strengthening, “if I wasn’t—”
Using our clasped hands, he jerks me flush to him, his breath hitting my ear a second before his heated declaration. “If you weren’t so determined to keep me out of your bed, I’d be f*cking the breath out of you right now, Natalie.”
I let out a shaky exhale as his erection brushes my stomach. “In my mind, I’ve already sunk inside you a thousand times.”
A whimper leaves my throat as he pulls back, undeniable heat burning in his darkening emerald gaze.
“This is crazy,” I swallow.
“No, it’s not,” he says, brushing his thumb seductively over the back of my hand. Exhaling heavily, he pulls back slightly, reaching into his jean pocket where he retrieves a pack of breath mints. His dark lashes flit over his cheeks as he unwraps the candy. Lifting a piece of it, he gently pushes it between my parted lips. Embarrassment threatening, I draw my brows just as he pops a piece into his own mouth before flicking the candy skillfully along his tongue. “I’m so tempted to ignore your words and listen to everything else you’re not saying.”
“Please don’t,” I whisper, knowing if he moves in, I won’t stop him. It’s when he inches closer that I realize I’m fisting his jersey for support.
He cups my face, running his thumb along my creased brow before lowering it to slide it across my bottom lip. “At least now I don’t have to wonder what your mouth tastes like.”
