Longing

It’s been two months since I walked out of Devlin’s hotel room.

Well, two months and five days, but I’m not counting.

I desperately need to move on, but before I can, Devlin shows up… as my new coworker.

As if I wasn’t already losing my mind, seeing him at work every day is making it worse. I try to stay away from him, knowing the effect he has on me, but I can’t. The more I’m around him, the more tempted I am to have something more.

After everything I’ve been through in the past, it’s a slippery slope that may land me in a place I never want to revisit.

There’s something happening to my heart, though. A longing is building up that isn’t one-sided… and doesn’t feel temporary.

He wants me. I want a forever.

Is it possible to have it all?
