Forever Only Once: A Contemporary Promise Me Novel

And yet when a bearded and tattooed man sits across from me at dinner, it isn’t until later that I realize Cross was never supposed to be mine.

After our accidental blind date, our paths cross once again and there’s no denying the attraction.

Only I’ve been burned before. Hurt, left broken, and shattered in more ways than one. I want to give in, and Cross seems to be the one person I let myself fall for, but the risks seem too much to bear.

We fight our connection, but in the end, it might be safer to fall for each other than keep running from what’s holding us back—not to mention, who wants us dead.

**Forever Only Once is a who hurt you, opposites attract, mistaken identity contemporary suspense romance in the Promise Me series featuring Cross and Hazel. Each one can be read as a complete standalone. A HEA is guaranteed!**
