Introduction
My life changed forever four years ago.
I lost the love of my life, the only person who truly loved me. The only person I had in this world.
Now here I am, trying to make a new start in Scotland, but I refuse to let my husband go.
It is hard to let him go when I still see and feel him around me every day.
It was not part of the plan to meet a new man, one who knows what I am feeling because he lost someone too. We clash from the second I move in, but soon, we find ourselves bonding over our trauma, something no one else can understand. I am looking for a friend, nothing more. He is the same, but the more time we spend together, things change. We start to feel things, things none of us are ready for. None of us expected that the second we met, we would be each other's reasons for healing.

"Are you still here?" I whisper, my words shaky in case he is gone.
"Of course, I am still here. I will be here for as long as you need me to be, my angel." The sound of his voice relaxes me.
"I wasn't sure since I left our home, if you would stay behind or not. I will always need you, my love."
"No, you won't. One day will come when you are okay without me." His finger brushes my face, but I wish so much I could feel it more powerful. I hate that I can't feel his touch as strongly as when he was still alive.
"No, that won't happen. You promised you wouldn't leave." I whimper. Losing him a second time would kill me.

“I thought we discussed this earlier, Weakness? I warned you. His death is on your hands.”
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.
Genevieve loses a bet she can’t afford to pay. In a compromise, she agrees to convince any man her opponent chooses to go home with her that night. What she doesn’t realize when her sister’s friend points out the brooding man sitting alone at the bar, is that man won’t be okay with just one night with her. No, Matteo Accardi, Don of one of the largest gangs in New York City doesn’t do one night stands. Not with her anyway.
