Insatiable: A Novel Read online

  The soft ocean breeze brushed Crystal’s cheek, swirling strands of hair in her face. She brushed it back as she walked along the beach toward the villa, Brent and Evan by her side. Brent opened the back gate and they walked up the steps and crossed the yard together.

  What they’d just done was exciting, but even more exciting was the fact that she had an amazing new relationship to look forward to, with both Brent and Evan.

  Once they were in the sunroom and Evan closed the door behind them, Crystal turned to face them with a big smile. “I’m so glad you two worked everything out.”

  Evan stepped toward her and cupped her face. As he leaned in close, she lost herself in the love glowing from his eyes.

  “Believe me, so am I.”

  When Evan’s lips met hers, she melted against him, her arms curling around his shoulders. Brent’s arms slid around her from behind and she felt totally surrounded in love.

  Oh, God, they both wanted her. And they wanted each other. Together the three of them would start a life together. Living and loving together.

  When she’d awakened on her wedding day, knowing she would soon walk down the aisle with the man she loved and looking forward to her dream-come-true honeymoon, she’d never dreamed it would end this way. She smiled, knowing she would never lose this insatiable desire for her two very special men.

  Who would have thought that being abandoned at the altar on her wedding day would be the best thing that ever happened to her?
