The Anniversary Ruin
She waited for love on her second anniversary. She found temptation, ruin, and the edge of her own desires instead.
Jessica Holt, an American professor and an outsider in a world that never lets her forget it, spends her anniversary alone in Tokyo, aching for a husband who has forgotten the heat that first drew them together. But when she drowns her disappointment in whisky and jazz, she attracts the hungry eyes of Yuuta Aizawa, a colleague who sees the longing beneath her polite smile.
One night, countless drinks, and a confession she can never take back, Jessica tumbles into a spiral of dangerous conversation, stolen touches, and a boundary she swore she'd never cross. Her marriage, her reputation, her body, and her will are all on the line. When Aizawa uncovers her most private secret, a fertile window she'd hoped only her husband would ever share, he becomes both her captor and her obsession.
Can a single night shatter everything Jessica thought she was? Or is the ruin, the shame, and the forbidden pleasure exactly what she's been craving all along?
