I wasn’t the type of woman who indulged in one-night stands, but the irresistible Liam Powers managed to charm me right into his bed—then disappeared before sunrise. I convinced myself the night was nothing more than a reckless lapse in judgment…until he walked into my office weeks later, looking every bit as sexy and confident as I remembered.
Only this time, Liam wasn’t just the man who’d wrecked my self-control. He was the wealthy investor interested in saving my family’s struggling tech company.
I told myself I could handle working with him. That I could ignore the spark between us and the way he looked at me. Like he still remembered every place on my body that he’d touched. I warned myself not to fall for that flirtatious smile a second time. Liam Powers didn’t do relationships. And I didn’t do heartbreak.
But partnership has a way of breaking down defenses. Late-night strategy sessions turned into banter and stolen glances. A business trip together had me falling into bed with him once more. Because Vegas revealed a softer, unexpected side of him—one that made me question everything I thought I knew about love, trust, and taking risks.
Then came Liam’s secrets. His betrayal. And his revelation about someone I loved. And I had to decide whether to walk away…or believe in the man who was fighting for us with everything he had.
Because somewhere between enemies, lovers, and second chances, Liam Powers became the one thing I never expected…My future.

Just a Little Desire by Carly Phillips
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This story had everything you would want in a book. Our MC had one amazing night together but come morning Morgan is left alone in a hotel room, wondering what is wrong with her that she attracts men who are afraid of commitment.
Liam bears scars with his ex cheating and leaving him 3 weeks before their weeding. When he wakes up in bed with Morgan, he runs scared of the feelings she invoked in him. But a few days has passed and he can’t shake the feeling he made a mistake. But life has decided to show him grace and delivers her on a plate (so to speak). He wants to make everything right but get her to let him explain is not easy.
Morgan wants to keep her walls up but being around him and hearing him explain what his past did to him, she gives in and soon they’re inseparable. What I love the most was the fact that even with the little drama at the end of the story, their love stood unshaken and they get to live their HEA.
