“We could, but I want you in our pool, on our dining room table, and wrapped around me in our bed.”
“That sounds”—I sigh, contentment brimming inside me that’s so bright and sharp I’m almost painfully happy—“perfect. I want you inside me, next to me, a part of me forever.”
“You’ve got it, baby. You can have me however you want me. Once we’re both sated, which may be a few decades from now, can you show me how to kill that damn Draugr Deathlord who keeps whipping my ass on that fucking video game?”
I toss back my head and laugh. I might not be good at love with the usual guy in the usual way. But I think I’m going to be damn good at loving this one for the rest of my life. “You’re on.”
Noah brushes a kiss over my lips. “You know what I thought the first time I saw you?”
“Tell me,” I whisper.
“That I had no idea when I purchased my dream home that it would come with the woman straight out of my fantasies.”
His words make me smile. He makes me glow. With Noah, I’m sublimely happy. “Well, now I’m your reality, big guy.”
“And I’m so blessed.”
I join our hands, thumbing his wedding ring, gratified that he’s still wearing it. He thrusts his hand into the pocket of his pants, pulls out my wedding ring, and begins fitting it on my finger again. “I’ve been carrying this around because I can’t stop thinking of you. Do you, forever this time?”
“I do. Forever and always. I promise.”
“I’m going to hold you to that.”
“You can hold me to that, hold me down, or just hold me tight. I’ll always be yours.”

I need to hire a wife. But I only want my assistant.
I'm Evan Cook—billionaire tech entrepreneur and widower. Professionally, I’ve got it all. But since my wife died, my personal life has fallen apart. Remarrying seems like the obvious answer, so I place an ad. I'm not asking for much. The ideal woman only needs to be smart, organized, pretty, and helpful—both in and out of bed—without expecting romance. I never thought to look right in front of me…but it turns out that Nia Wright, my sexy, sassy assistant, just might be the perfect candidate.
After an unexpectedly hot night together, I'm ready to stop interviewing strangers and simply marry her. On paper, she ticks every box on my list. Best of all, she's far too sensible to fall for me. I didn’t see the flaw in my logic until it was too late. I never thought I’d lose my heart for the first time. And I definitely never imagined Nia could consume me. But she's harboring a secret that could tear us apart. Can I prove I more than crave her before it’s too late?
