Laurelin Paige Knihy

Vzťah Alayny Withersovej a Hudsona Piercea je pre oboch skúškou dôvery. Pochopia, že ak chcú ako dvojica prežiť, musia byť jeden k druhému otvorení. Pre milencov, ktorí majú za sebou veľké sklamania, to nie je jednoduché, no aj tak sú si oddaní čoraz viac. Alayna je vďaka skúškam, ktoré prežila, teraz sebaistejšia a absolútne verná mužovi, ktorého miluje. No zatiaľ čo sa pár sústreďuje na spoločnú budúcnosť, ich krehké spojenie ohrozuje minulosť. Sľuby sa opäť porušujú a Alayna zistí, že Hudson ešte vždy tají niečo dôležité – niečo, čo ich nakoniec rozoštve. Aj napriek silným citom k Hudsonovi Alaynina schopnosť odpustiť a zabudnúť dosiahla jej síl. Hoci našla jediného muža, pre ktorého je ochotná urobiť takmer všetko, magické „navždy“ s Hudsonom sa zdá nedosiahnuteľné.

Alayna Withersová dosiaľ pestovala len jeden typ vzťahu, poznačený jej posadnutosťou a prenasledovaním partnerov, preto to vždy dopadlo zle. No po tom, čo jej Hudson Pierce otvoril svoje srdce, rozhodla sa odstrániť medzi nimi posledné bariéry, aby sľubný vzťah mohli postaviť na niečom väčšom než len na skvelom sexe. Cíti, že zničenie tejto lásky by znamenalo jej koniec. Lenže nielen ona, aj Hudson má svoje tajomstvá. Minulosť ich čoraz väčšmi vťahuje do spleti zbytočnej nedôvery, a tak sa Alayna obracia na jedinú osobu, ktorá muža jej života pozná najlepšie – na Celiu, ženu, s ktorou sa kedysi takmer oženil. Alayna sa s ňou spriatelí v nádeji, že získa informácie od niekoho, kto pozná príbeh z inej strany. Zájde to však priďaleko, o Hudsonovi sa dozvie niečo, čo opäť ohrozuje ich lásku.

Krásna Alayna Withersová vie, čo znamená prenasledovanie a zákazy približovania, ale to už aj s pomocou terapeutky azda prekonala. V ruke má novučičký vysokoškolský titul a premyslenú celú budúcnosť – získa lepšiu pozíciu v nočnom klube, kde pracuje, a vyhne sa každému mužovi, ktorý by mohol spustiť jej obsedantnú poruchu. Dokonalý plán! Alayna však vôbec nerátala s Hudsonom Pierceom, novým majiteľom klubu. Je inteligentný, bohatý a neuveriteľný fešák – presne typ muža, od ktorého by sa mala držať čo najďalej, ak sa chce vyhnúť prízrakom z minulosti. Lenže osud to chcel inak a Alayna je už stredobodom Hudsonovho záujmu. Chce ju dostať do postele a vôbec sa tým netají. Keď jej Hudson dá neodolateľnú obchodnú ponuku, už sa mu viac nemôže vyhýbať a jeho magnetizmu sa nedá ubrániť... Keď zistí, že aj Hudson má svoju temnú minulosť, je už neskoro. Alayna si uvedomuje, že s problematickejším chlapom sa ani zapliesť nemohla. Je však možné, že práve ich minulosť im dá šancu navzájom sa vyliečiť a konečne nájsť skutočnú lásku.
