    Ever. My life wasn’t set up for me to do something this taboo. This risky. This… sexy. This… reckless. As a preacher’s daughter there were just some things in this world I was not allowed or expected to do – meeting a total and complete stranger for sex was probably on the top of the list. This wasn’t planned. Okay, well maybe it was. Let me start from the beginning. Him I ain’t no fool. I know sex could never lead to love. I’ve never believed in love at first sight. So what was this that I was feeling for Akela? Akela. Even her name speaks to what she is. What she was. Alone. She didn’t know that I knew that that was what her name meant. We really didn’t know too much about each other. Just the basics. All I know is when I laid eyes on her I wanted her. And when I was inside of her I needed her. I never wanted to let her go. But she made it clear last night before we went to sleep that this was going to be a onetime thing. She wanted to forget she ever knew him. He wanted to be as close to her as her skin, yet as distant as enemies. After their night together, they are forced to be together for two months because of her accident and his career. Could a one-night stand turn into something more?

     Twelve years ago, when she and best guy friend, Amir Jones, were teenagers, Amir suggested they be more than just friends. Loving their friendship just as it was and fearing he’d continue to want more for them, she panicked and hooked him up with her best girlfriend, Sheena Rincon.  Matchmaking proved not to be Melodee’s forte. Amir and Sheena’s relationship wasn’t the best for the two years they were together and their courtship ended horribly right before their high school graduation. It’s over a decade later and Amir’s feelings for Melodee have only gotten stronger. He’s a major recording artist now and is traveling the world on tour with one of Hip Hop’s biggest artists, signing multi-million-dollar endorsement deals, receiving nominations for a multitude of awards, and is lusted after by many women in several area codes – local and international. But like LL, Amir needs love and the only person he wants it from is Melodee. And here enters the obvious problem… there’s an unspoken rule in a sisterhood that states a friend should never date another friend’s ex. Especially if that ex is that friend’s first love.  Besides, Sheena might never approve of Melodee and Amir’s potential relationship anyway all because of a decision Amir pressured her into making as a teenager that’s affecting her life as an adult. So now Melodee must decide what is more important to her, love or loyalty. And the decision won’t be an easy one to make. *This story contains sexually explicit content that is intended for ADULTS ONLY (18 years or older).
