Dimitri by Alexis Ashlie

★ Can true love still burn after fifteen years of no contact? Dimitri and Abigail are proof that love is eternal, everlasting, and filled with swirling, heated passion.★★

Dimitri:
Love and family are in the air. Most of my brothers have settled down, and I can’t help but think that this could have been me fifteen years ago.
I’d given up the love of my life because I’d wanted her to live, to be happy, to be taken care of. Back then, those were things someone like me could never have given her. I was dirt poor, and when my mother died, I became an emotional wreck.
Since I’d let Abigail go, no woman has been able to fill that empty space in my heart. I’d struggled to bury all memories of the one woman I wanted more than anything but could never have. But as I watch my brothers and their women mingle at Harlo and Catalina’s baby shower, images of Abigail resurface.
Then, that fateful night, we meet again despite all the odds, and suddenly it’s like those fifteen years never passed.

Abigail:
For fifteen years, I have only existed. When Dimitri left, it broke me into tiny pieces. Pieces I’ve never been able to find or put back together again. I finally leave California to pursue a dream job in New York, but it seems like adversity follows my every move. One tough night, my car breaks down—and just like that, I meet the boy who broke my heart.
Our love reawakens, and Dimitri finally gives me the closure I’d been so desperate for all those years ago. It’s only then that we realize the true mastermind behind the end of our relationship.
