Sienna Peterson had the whole "happily ever after" thing locked down... or so she thought. She married her college sweetheart, mastered the art of casserole-making, and dove headfirst into suburban adulthood. Twenty-one years later? Her husband's traded her in for someone who still gets carded, her kids are off to college, and Sienna is suddenly very single with a whole lot of free time. Cue the midlife plot twist. Who says your 40s can't be fabulous? Who says you can't date a ridiculously attractive and a billboard 26-year-old named Daniel Walter-who just so happens to be sweet, sexy, and seriously into her? Daniel may be younger, but he's got his life together and his heart in the right place. Sienna, on the other hand, has no idea how she ended up in a situationship with a man who knows how to properly fold fitted sheets. But hey-he makes her laugh, makes her blush, and makes her feel more alive than she has in years. It starts off as just fun... but what if it's more than that? What if age is just a number, and love is the surprise twist she never saw coming? One woman's fresh start. One unexpected romance. And a whole lot of awkwardly hot moments.

Protagonist

: Sienna Peterson and Daniel Walter

Age of desire Chapter 1 Caught In The Beat

SIENNA'S POV

The club's bass thumped trough me, vibrating my bones as I gripped my vodka soda at the bar. Neon lights flashed over twisting bodies, the air thick with sweat and perfume. My black dress hugged my curves, a reckless choice for a 42-year-old still stinging from Evan's divorce. He'd dumped me for a 30-year-old with fake tits, his betrayal a raw ache that made me feel old, worthless.

My new Miami condo, boxes still unpacked, haunted me-a fresh start I wasn't sure I deserved. With my kids both in college, I was alone, untethered, and Lila had dragged me here, swearing I needed to fuck someone and forget the pain. I wasn't convinced, my heart heavy with hurt.

"Stop looking liked your dog died," Lila commanded, leaning close, her blonde curls bouncing, her perfume cutting through the haze. "You're hot, you're single, and you're gonna bang someone tonight."

I choked on my drink, my cheeks burning. "God, Lila, chill." The idea of a stranger's hands on me made my chest tighten, Evan's rejection still screaming I wasn't enough.

"What? Evan's screwing his mid-life crisis, so why not you?" Her grin was wicked, her eyes scanning the crowd like a predator.

I twisted my straw, ice clinking, wanting to feel alive but scared to let go. "I'm not you. I don't just...hook up." My voice carried years of being the good wife, the mom who put everyone first, now lost in the wreckage of my marriage.

Lila snorted, snatching a shot from a tray. "Bullshit, you're dying to let loose. That dress? It's begging for some dick to notice it."

"Jesus, you're crude," I muttered, but a smile slipped through. Lila had always been my wild side, dragging me into trouble in high school. I'd chosen stability, dreams buried under diapers and dinner parties, and now his betrayal left me questioning everything.

"Crude's my charm, babe." She downed the shot, slamming the glass down. "Pick a guy because you need to get laid, stat."

I scanned the crowd, my pulse quickening. Men in tight shirts, women in barely-there skirts, all moving like they owned the night. I felt out of place, my divorce a weight dragging me down, but my body hummed with a hunger I'd ignored too long.

"I wouldn't know how to start," I admitted, my voice small, the hurt seeping through.

"Him." Lila nodded at the dance floor, where a guy moved with easy swagger, dark hair catching the strobes. "Young, hot, and staring right at you."

I followed her gaze, and his eyes, sharp and blue, locked on mine, stealing my breath. "Fuck, he's gorgeous," she whispered, nudging me. "He wants to eat you alive."

My face heated, my heart pounding. "He's a kid, probably thinks I'm his mom." Evan's voice echoed in my head, telling me I was too old, too used up.

"Kid?" That's a man who'd fuck you senseless." She shoved my shoulder. "Go talk to him. Show him you've still got it."

I gripped the bar, my nails digging into the wood. I wanted to run, to hide in my apartment with wine and tears. But his eyes, slicing through the chaos, sparked a heat between my thighs, my core clenched despite my fear.

"What if he laughs?" I asked, my voice trembling, the divorce making me doubt every step.

"Then he's a moron, and you move on." Her tone softened, just a beat. "You're not Evan's reject, Si. You're a still a fucking catch after 2 kids. Go."

I downed my drink, the vodka burning my throat. I wasn't ready, but Lila was right about one thing-I was tired of feeling broken.

"Fine. But if I crash, you owe me brunch," I teased, my humor a shield for my nerves.

"Deal." She winked, pushing me forward. "Go get some."

I wove through the crowd, my heart pounding louder than the music. The guy watched me approach, his lips curving into a smirk that screamed trouble. Up close, he was devastating, his jaw sharp, his scent clean sweat and spice. My stomach flipped, my body alive with want and fear.

"Didn't expect you to come over," he murmured, his voice low, rough, like he was already imagining me naked.

I laughed, shaky, smoothing my dress to hide my nerves. "Didn't expect to either. My friend's really pushy." My words carried my hurt, trying to convince myself that I wasn't faking this confidence.

"Lucky for me." His eyes raked over me, slow, deliberate, lingering on my tits, my hips. "You're the hottest thing in here."

My pulse raced, heat pooling low. He was too young, too bold, but his gaze made me feel wanted, something Evan never gave me. "You say that to every girl?" I tilted my head, trying to play it cool, but my voice shook, my need slipping through.

"Only the ones that make my heart race." His grin was wicked, and I believed him, even if it was reckless.

My cunt throbbed, my body screaming for more, but my mind was a mess-Evan's betrayal, the world's judgement, my own doubts. "You're trouble," I teased, braver than I felt, hiding the ache in my chest.

"Best kind." He stepped closer; his breath warm on my cheek. "Dance with me. Let's see how much trouble we can make."

My stomach flipped. I wasn't his woman, flirting with a guy half my age, but Evan's hurt pushed me forward, tired of being invisible.

"Okay," I blurted, my heart hammering. "One dance."

His grin widened, and he took my hand, his fingers firm, sparking heat where they touched. He led me to the dance floor, the crowd parting, and I felt every eyes on me, judging or envying. My body was alive, my pussy tingling with anticipation, but my mind screamed-what was I doing?

Lila raised her glass from the bar, smirking, her nod, a silent cheer. The music shifted, slow and dirty, and his hand settled on my waist. I was stepping into something dangerous, wondering if I could let go and claim this moment, then probably wallow in regret later.

She hides behind ugly suits and fake names. He's done trusting women. When they meet in a masked sex club, neither realizes they've been fighting each other across boardroom tables for eighteen months. At Taylor Industries, she's Joy Smith-the frumpy CFO who drowns her curves in shapeless polyester and wearing a wig. At home, she's the forgotten wife of a cheating lawyer who hasn't touched her in so long she's starting to wonder if she's broken. When she finds hot pink lace panties stuffed in her couch cushions...definitely not hers, it's not heartbreak she feels. It's freedom. Grayson Taylor doesn't do relationships anymore. Not after walking in on his actress fiancƩe with another woman. Now he channels everything into hostile takeovers and board meetings, especially the ones where his overcautious CFO fights him on every goddamn acquisition. Joy Smith is brilliant, infuriating, and funny when he pushes all her buttons. But Honey is tired of being invisible. Tired of never having felt real pleasure. So, when her best friend gives her the details of The Velvet Room-Manhattan's most exclusive masked club-she promises herself just one night. One night to find out if her husband's right, if she really is frigid, or if she's just never been touched by the right hands. She doesn't expect the masked stranger who claims her the second she walks in. Doesn't expect the chemistry that ignites between them, the way he makes her body sing, or the orgasms that leave her shaking. Doesn't expect him to hand her an email address with one command: "Only me. No one else touches you."

Trigger/Content Warning: This story contains mature themes and explicit content intended for adult audiences(18+). Reader discretion is advised.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.
