Growing up, the three of us were friends. He was the nerd. I was the playboy. She was the beauty. Deep down, I only ever wanted her.

When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

She was an addiction. At first, we knew nothing about each other’s real identities...and she was adamant that we keep things that way.

I'm not a one-night stand kind of woman. I'm especially not the woman who has a few drinks at a concert and ends up in bed with my childhood celebrity crush, Eli Walsh.

I grab my clothes and get away from the powerful, irresistible, and best-sex-of-my-life superstar as fast as I can.
