Heavy Pour (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781946068606)

Alex
I thought the hardest part of balancing work, grad school, family issues, and a boyfriend would be learning to squash the inner voice telling me I wasn't enough and didn't deserve a man like Ryder. I was wrong.

What was supposed to be a temporary detour, Ryder stepping in to run his father's billion-dollar empire, has twisted into months of fourteen-hour days, cancelled dates, and broken plans. Ryder doesn't want this life. The man I love is drowning under the crushing weight of a legacy he never asked for. But knowing doesn't make the loneliness hurt any less.

I crave what we had before Ryder gave in to his family's demands, the man who had time to kiss me breathless on the kitchen counter and spend entire nights tangled between the sheets. Most days, I feel helpless to do anything more than love Ryder through text messages and quick, passing moments. We both know it's not enough, but how do you fight for a man who isn't free to fight for himself?

Ryder
I will burn the world down before I lose Alex, but the empire demanding my attention is slowly leeching the life from me, and I can feel him slipping through my fingers. Some days, it feels like challenges are bombarding us from all angles, and I don't know how to smack them down. Every time we clear one hurdle, another pops up in its place. Whether we're battling family problems, complicated social dynamics, or our internal demons, I'm determined to keep us together and thriving.

All I hope is that it's not too late to prove to Alex that he is the one thing I can't live without.

Sexy, emotional, and devastatingly intimate, Heavy Pour delivers the explosive conclusion to Alex and Ryder's love story-where passion is fierce, the stakes are high, and walking away is never an option.
