Introduction
The first time Tessa Rhodes saw Axel Wolfe again, he was holding her salvation in one hand and a damn coffee bag in the other. She hadn’t seen him in ten years. Not since he kissed her best friend in the staff room and then vanished without a word like steam off a forgotten brew. Now here he stood. Muscular, smirking and tattooed. Too confident for a man she once wanted to burn alive. And she? She didn’t say hello. She didn’t cry. She didn’t throw a mug at his face though, God, she wanted to. Instead, she looked him dead in the eyes and said,“You’ve got five seconds to get out of my café before I roast you.” But Axel, he just smiled like he already owned the place. And hell followed him in.
