Romance

Raven Young thought that after completing her final mission, she would finally leave the organization and live a peaceful life.
    But what happens when that very mission turns out to be the first one she ever fails?
    You run.
    Yes—and so did Raven.
    Not to save herself, but to escape the people chasing her, pushing her to the very edge… until she had no choice but to jump off a cliff, hoping against hope to survive.
    But fate had other plans.
    When Raven opened her eyes, she realized she was alive… but not in her own body.
    She had woken up as Ivy—the very woman who had caused her mission to fail.
    And as if that wasn’t enough, a father and son pair refused to let her go.
    The man kept her close for reasons of his own, his motives unclear and unsettling.
    Meanwhile, the child clung to her, refusing to leave her side, determined to keep his “parents” together—and even dreaming of having a sibling.
    “God… just what in the world has happened?”
    Raven had never felt so betrayed by life.
    But living in Ivy’s body begins to unravel secrets—truths that entangle their lives in ways she cannot escape.
    And the man who keeps her close?
    Little by little… he begins to drive her insane with his undeniable charm.
    ***
    Ivy’s breath hitched as Xander stepped closer, closing the space between them.
    “Still pretending you’re unaffected?” he murmured.
    Her back met the wall, but she didn’t move away. “You assume too much.”
    “Do I?” His fingers brushed her wrist, slow, deliberate, sending warmth through her veins.
    Her grip tightened on his shirt, betraying her.
    “Tell me to stop,” he whispered.
    She didn’t.
    The silence thickened, charged and fragile.
    His gaze dropped to her lips, waiting—giving her the choice.
    And when she didn’t pull away, the tension between them deepened into something far more dangerous and the next thing they new was they were already kissing.
