Across the Night

Night brings the unexpected, and I did not expect him.

Hello, my name is Sadie, and I’m a workaholic. Social life? Forget it. Relationships? I’m currently mourning the death of orgasms. But sixteen-hour working days? Just another Friday night. As a manager at a hotel, the overnight shift just comes with the job. Normally, it’s uneventful—that is, until I meet Aiden.

Here one minute, gone the next; he’s the mysterious businessman more silver-tongued than I can take, and he’s haunting me month-to-month. I wouldn’t call it serendipitous; we have hotel regulars all the time. But destiny has a weird way of bringing two sleepless people together. Not like I believe in that fairytale kind of stuff. I shouldn’t even be flirting with hotel guests as it is. But with Aiden Wrenn? All bets are off.
