Alek

By Brynn Paulin

One misdirected email changed everything…

 

For months, Caroline Silver has been emailing a stranger she met purely by accident on the internet. Their nightly cyber-liaisons are perfect—low risk and high fantasy. That is, until Caro's dream man asks her to meet him.

 

Alek Lebedev has wooed Caro for months from his home in Croatia. When he has the opportunity to visit the United States, he jumps at the chance to finally meet the woman who's been tantalizing him. Though she says no to the face-to-face encounter, Alek knows exactly how to break down her walls. He's sure he can persuade her to turn that "No" into "Oh, yes!"

 

But can one steamy night of lovemaking lead to forever, or will they remain strangers bound only by the anonymous words they've written?

 

NOTE: This book was originally released as With Love, Alek. This is a fast and flirty book. Insta-love? Oh, yes. When it comes to passion, these two run right on in.
