She buried her desires beneath marriage, motherhood, and routine?until one forbidden man awakened them.

Eloise Martin never expected a visit to the dojo to change her life. Then she meets Kent Bennett: a magnetic sensei, a married man, and a temptation she knows she should resist.

Every lingering glance becomes a dare. Every private lesson draws them deeper into a world of secrecy, surrender, and pleasure without limits. What begins with stolen touches soon becomes a consuming affair neither of them is willing to end.

But forbidden passion always demands a price.

As suspicion grows and their carefully hidden lives begin to unravel, Eloise and Kent must decide how much they are willing to sacrifice. Their marriages, families, reputations, and futures all hang in the balance.

Can their love survive once it is dragged into the light?or will their obsession destroy everything they once believed mattered?

Coveted Hearts: Love in the Shadows is an intensely explicit contemporary erotic romance featuring forbidden desire, infidelity, dominance and submission, bondage, sexual awakening, and extremely high heat. Intended for readers 18 and older.
