Deadly Desires

di Alessia Graves (Autore)

Alessia Graves, 2025

Five years ago, I walked out of court on a high and walked into my worst nightmare. I found the mother of my children on the bathroom floor, cold and covered in vomit. Since that night, I've lived with two daughters who cling to me like a lifeline, a woman who swears I killed her child, and a house that feels more like a crime scene than a home. I'm brilliant at what I do, feared in a courtroom, respected in my field. But I can't win a verdict against my past. And then there's her—the only one who ever made me feel alive again. The only one who looks at me and doesn't see a monster. I'm almost thirty-eight, successful, and apparently "too picky." My friends are building families. I'm building late-night projects and fertility panic. All I really want is a child—and a man who doesn't try to cage me. What I got instead was a broken widower with two daughters who dictate his life and a ghost I can't compete with. Loving him felt like sleeping in a house still full of ashes. So I walked away. Three months. That's how long I've lasted without his hands, his voice, his control. Tonight was supposed to be my reset: loud music, too many drinks, a younger body in my bed, and no strings attached. Then the doorbell rang. Now the only man I've never been able to forget is standing in my doorway, furious, possessive, and absolutely certain of one thing: I'm still his. Between a grieving family that wants me gone, two girls who refuse to share their father, and a past that won't stay buried, loving him might destroy the one thing I have left—my chance at the future I've always wanted. But when the person you should run from is the only one who makes you feel alive… how do you ever really let him go? Deadly Desires is a steamy, emotional single-dad second-chance romance about a widowed father drowning in guilt, a fiercely independent woman racing her own biological clock, and the dangerous pull of a love that feels more like an addiction than a choice. It's full of grief, obsession, family conflict, and the question of whether risking everything for one man is worth the future she's always wanted.
