Absinthe of the Heart
Summary
Two households, unlike in dignity, in the City of Angels is where we lay our scene... London Sinclair was the boy my mother warned me about for as long as I can remember.

Ten years later, I have atoned for my sins and return to Los Angeles a changed woman. I’ve come home to get married. But the moment London walks back into my life, one thing is clear.
