On a warm summer's night, the sparkling lights of Stonebridge shone like a galaxy, casting a glamorous glow over the town. Luxury cars lined the private road on either side, stretching as far as the eye could see.

In a splendid three-story mansion, a grand feast was underway. The first-floor hall buzzed with lively chatter, the noise spiraling up the carpeted staircase.

The woman who had captured countless admiring glances was abruptly dragged into a suite at the east side of the stairs.

The door slammed shut, and before the lights could flicker on, Leanne found herself backed against a wall, a man's lips pressing fiercely against hers.

She felt a hand cushioned her back, enveloped by a familiar woody scent, crisp and slightly cool, unmistakably Curtis'.
