A list of red flags that I, Elaina Hunter, have ignored:

- Billionaire chef. (Suspicious.)
- My actual boss. (Problematic.)
- Emotionally unavailable. (Classic.)
- Secret mafia ties. (Less classic. Still an issue.)
- Faked his own death. (Honestly, at this point, I should've seen it coming.)

I should've run after the first one.
I definitely should have booked it after what I saw him do in that alley.
And yet here I am, pregnant with his baby, opening my door to him at midnight because he said pretty please.

Bastian Hale makes me want to tear my hair out.
He makes me want to cry and scream, and also kiss and cuddle.

But if he thinks I'm the same girl he ruined, he's got another thing coming.
This is a new me. Eliana 2.0.
And this version won't fall so easily.

If Bastian wants forgiveness... He's gonna have to beg for it.

TASTE OF THE LIGHT is Book 2 of Bastian and Eliana's story. Their romance begins in Book 1, TASTE OF THE DARK.
