How did life get to be so boring? Kara Marks has a mundane career and a mundane life and wishes for a little excitement—and gets far more than she bargained for.
A dark stranger begins to visit Kara in her dreams. Night after night the man returns and treats her to passion so great she is left wanting and needing every morning. The dreams are so real that she begins to wonder if she’s losing her mind. Soon she learns that not only is the mystery man of her dreams, Adan, flesh-and-blood, but he’s brought very real danger to her doorstep, danger that could mean her life.
Adan Valnez is on a mission to find a missing stone that contains powerful magic, before an evil force obtains it. When he meets Kara, what he locates is trouble in the form of a passionate woman. He is drawn to her nightly, and he can’t seem to hold himself back. He can’t stop thinking of her, can’t stop going to her. Even though he visits her nightly, and passion and lust flares between them, he can’t allow her to remember him when he’s not there.
But when the magical stone—a pendant Kara has had since she was a child—falls into the wrong hands, everything changes. Now it’s a race to save the stone, a world, Kara’s life, and to preserve an eternal love.

Excerpt
Kara sighed and moved her hands up to Adan's shoulders and into his long, thick hair. His tongue slipped into her mouth and she tasted him, drawing him deeper inside until she felt as if he possessed all of her in just that one kiss.
Desire burned through Kara from the roots of her hair to that spot between her thighs that ached for him, that needed this man she didn’t even know. Somewhere in the back of her mind she realized she truly knew absolutely nothing about him, yet she wanted him so bad she could taste it. What would it be like to feel him naked against her, to feel him thrust deep inside her? She could feel him hard against her belly, and she wondered how he might taste if she sucked his cock.
Maybe she would go to bed with him. Right now.
Adan moved his hands from her shoulders, slowly caressing her arms until he reached her hips. He drew her body flush with his and kneaded her butt. Her silky skirt rose up higher and higher until his hands were on her panties.
Adan stilled as he felt bare flesh beneath his hands. He drew back from the kiss and stared down at Kara. She smiled and twirled her finger in a lock of his hair. “I liked that.”
“Mmmm.” His smile was more than carnal. “I want to taste you.”
Heat flared through her at the thought, but still she said, “It’s too soon for that.”
Adan slid his hands to her waist and Kara gasped as he effortlessly picked her up and set her on the countertop. The granite was cool against her ass and her panties pulled tight against her clit. Her skirt rode high on her thighs.
“I will not force you, love, but I believe you want me as much as I want you.” He moved between her thighs and kissed her, then brought his hands to her breasts and groaned against her mouth. “You can tell me to leave and I will.”
Leave? The mere thought made her want to scream, No…no!
To hell with getting to know him better. Kara wanted this man. What better way to get to know him anyway? She braced her hands on the countertop and arched her back so that her breasts pressed against his palms. He gave a low rumble and moved his mouth down her neck to the silky blouse she wore.
Through the fabric he pinched and pulled at her nipples, then found one with his mouth and tongue and she all but mewled with pleasure. She watched him as he suckled first one breast and then the other—no way did she want him to stop
