One fateful night on the stage of the Royal Opera House, my life was irrevocably changed. Midway through a performance, and in front of thousands of fans, my voice failed me, but instead of giving up, I swore I'd forge a new path. Two years later, my voice was better than ever, and thanks to an old schoolmate, Serge Kuznetsov, I had signed a lucrative contract with the Virginia Opera. It came with many perks, including an alluring personal assistant, Gray Wyatt. I'd kissed Gray, a mistake a boss should never make with an employee. The feeling of his body trembling in my arms, and the moans that came deep from within his chest, played on repeat in my heated imagination. It didn't matter where I was, or what I was doing, the memory of that forbidden kiss haunted me. When I first moved to Richmond, I envisioned a happy future filled with love and excitement. Instead, my alcoholic boyfriend dumped me, and then I was fired from my crappy retail job, but under very dubious circumstances. I was tempted to throw in the towel, but Lady Luck had one more curveball to throw at me. A new job, as personal assistant to a hypnotic opera singer who made every fiber of my being throb with desire. Insane tension burned between us. I thought it was my imagination, but I'd swear he wanted me too. Whenever I touched Rémy, his skin would flush, and his breathing would become ragged. There was a boundary I longed to cross, but I didn't dare. He was my boss, and I wasn't about to lose my job, because I couldn't keep my hands to myself. Until one fateful night backstage when he blew through that boundary, and I longed for him more than ever.
