Ava is no longer the vibrant, happy woman Griffin had once loved and married, and he would do anything to bring back the sparkle to her brilliant green eyes. But what's never changed are the sexy sparks of attraction between Ava and Griffin, and he won't give her up again without a fight. He knows there's the real possibility of a future together...if the truth doesn't burn the bridge between them forever.

Excerpt
“We’re in business, Simon. This
should do—”
“Tell Grams I’ll see her in a bit.”
Her gaze shot to the door. She’d
recognize that voice anywhere. Griffin was here. Now. Outside the door. She
shot to her feet, shoving the candelabra in front of the fireplace.
Meow.
She’d trapped Simon. She grabbed
the cat, put him on the floor, and scooped up the bucket and sponges while
frantically searching for somewhere to hide. The balcony. She didn’t care if
she froze to death; she couldn’t let him find her here.
As she turned to run, Ava heard the beep of the passkey. She wouldn’t make it. She spun around and ran the short distance to the bathroom. Her breath coming in panicked puffs, she stepped inside the bathtub and carefully inched the crimson and gold shower curtain across the rod. She sagged against the tile wall, praying his in a bit meant he’d drop his bags off and leave.
If it had been anyone other than
Griffin, she’d pretend to be cleaning the room. But she remembered all too
clearly the humiliation of being discovered by Griffin and his ex-wife the last
time they’d stayed at the manor. He’d looked at Ava like he hadn’t known who
she was, and his wife had asked for fresh towels, acting as though Ava hadn’t
done her job.
And then there was the book. She
couldn’t leave without it.
“How did you get in here?”
Her gaze jerked to the curtain, her
heart beating double time. She let out the breath she’d been holding when the
bed creaked. Simon. Griffin was talking to the cat. “Better question would be,
what have you been up to? Your paws are black. Off the bed, buddy.”
Her toes curled in her shoes, a
warm, fluttery sensation settling low in her stomach in response to the slow
drawl of Griffin’s deep voice. He always spoke in that low, unhurried tone.
Even when he was angry or when he was whispering how much he loved her or when
he was talking her out of her temper. Only then there’d been a hint of laughter
too. Her temper used to amuse him. He had a long fuse; she had a short one. She
used to, at least.
Her lips curved at the memories;
then her wistful smile faded when the consequences of what he’d just said
penetrated her lovesick brain. Simon’s paws were dirty. All she’d need was for
Griffin to start looking for the source. She had to…
There was the rasp of a zipper, then the light thud of something hitting the floor. At the sound of heavy footfalls approaching the bathroom, Ava’s eyes went wide, and she pressed her back against the tiled wall. A bare, muscled arm reached past the curtain, a large hand turning on the water. The cold spray from the showerhead hit her in the face, and a small, shocked squeak escaped before she could contain it.
Griffin whipped back the shower
curtain. His thick, toffee-colored hair glistened under the fluorescent light,
his dazzling, deep blue eyes wide in surprise. She opened her mouth to say
something, but the words got stuck in her throat as her eyes drifted down his
body. He was completely and gloriously naked. And even more beautiful than she
remembered.
