Will we be able to leave behind our pasts or will the temptation of the future be enough?

It was only supposed to be one night. I never expected to fall into bed with him and I never expected to crave his touch, his lips, or his voice.

His eyes tell me he knows exactly who I am, and he wants to be more than just my boss.
