Description
Leather And Roses, a Dark M/M Romance Series, Book 1 Standalone Dark Romance ------ Scars define me, a legacy of a brutal past. My heart is a wasteland, incapable of giving or receiving love. Despite this truth, a selfish ache stirs within me, a forbidden longing I can't suppress. When his image fills my mind, this unwanted desire claws at me, but I must deny it. He deserves a love that heals and uplifts, not the ruin I represent. I would only shatter him, only leave him in ashes. == Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice... shame on me. I know the dance with fire. I know how it seduces you with its warmth, how it promises brilliance before it delivers ruin. I vowed to stay away, to break this destructive pattern. But he's a flame I can't ignore, an addiction I can't kick. My hands reach, compelled by something reckless and raw. I won't learn until I'm burned again, until the pain finally sears through the delusion. "These violent delights have violent ends. And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey Is loathsome in his own deliciousness. And in the taste confounds the appetite: Therefore love moderately; long love doth so; Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow." ⁓ William Shakespeare === Under editing!
