Description

In the pouring rain on Chicago's Michigan Avenue bridge, two strangers lock eyes and everything changes.

Alex Rivera is a rising musician trapped in a crumbling marriage. Mia Thompson is a fiercely independent artist who never stays in one place long enough to fall in love. One charged conversation, one shared umbrella, and an instant, undeniable pull neither can explain.

What begins as a single stolen night quickly becomes a passionate, secret affair that consumes them both. By day, they live separate lives, Alex returning to the graystone row house and the wife who no longer knows him; Mia pouring her longing into her paintings. By night, they belong only to each other in Mia's Wicker Park loft, where the city lights and whispered promises blur the lines between right and wrong.

But secrets this intense cannot stay hidden forever.

As guilt, desire, and the growing fear of discovery collide, Alex and Mia must decide whether to keep their love part-time... or risk everything for the soul-deep connection that feels like destiny.

Part-Time Hearts is the gripping first book in the Secret Lovers trilogy, an emotionally charged contemporary romance about forbidden love, impossible choices, and the courage it takes to claim a forever you were never supposed to have.

Perfect for fans of emotional, high-tension romance with atmospheric Chicago settings and unforgettable characters.
