Blurb:

Wistful Whispers is an irresistible battle of the wills where surrendering to forbidden temptation could cost them everything.

I never promised forever.
A good time? Absolutely.
Heartbreak? Only if they got too attached.

My reputation as a quiet playboy precedes me—women talk, and my ‘talents’ follow me wherever I go. But I’ve always been upfront. No commitments. No expectations. No complications.

Marcella Delgado is nothing but complications. Brilliant. Fierce. Eight years older. And the attorney trying to take down my boss in a malpractice case. She should hate me on sight—hell, she does. But that doesn’t stop the heat between us from igniting the moment we meet.

She’s heard the stories about me firsthand, right there in the depositions. She knows exactly what I’m good at, and even though she fights it, I can see the temptation in her eyes.

One night. One line crossed.
Now my future’s unraveling—and she might be the only thing I don’t want to let go.

For the first time, I want it all.

And I’ll fight like hell to be the man she can’t leave behind.

Excerpt – Reputation, Rumors, and a Surprising Truth

“Look, I’m not an idiot. I know what people say. Hell, you brought it up in my deposition. I won’t lie—there’s a reason I’ve had my fair share of…experiences. Not exclusively in stairwells, for fuck’s sake, though they’re awfully convenient when you fucking live at the hospital. Definitely not in the way you’re thinking.”

“What do you mean?” Her brow furrows slightly.

I glance around the restaurant, feeling an unfamiliar wave of nerves tense in my chest. I don’t usually get anxious. Not in surgery and sure as hell not when talking to women. With her?

This is uncharted territory.

“It means,” I say carefully, “if you did your homework you’d know I never actually fucked anyone in said stairwells. Let me blow your mind. Technically, I’m still a virgin.”

Marcella’s lips part with shock. She says nothing. Stares at me like I’ve grown a second head.

“You can pick your jaw up off the floor.” I fight the urge to smirk.

She blinks, shaking her head slightly. “I’m sorry. I find it difficult to believe with your reputation—”

“A reputation I’ve never bothered to correct because my sex life is no one’s business unless I choose to share it.” I narrow my eyes.

She studies me and there’s a palpable shift in her demeanor—curiosity laced with desire?

“Why do you do it then?”

“I got into medicine because my family has a history of alcoholism.” I gesture to my untouched wine. “I wanted to understand why some brains are wired toward addiction.”

Marcella moves the glass away. “I’m sorry for being presumptuous about the wine. Let’s order something else.”

“It’s fine. I’m good with water.” I hold up my glass and take a sip.

She nods. We look at each other for a beat.

She purses her lips and smiles. “Continue…”
