Every Goodbye Ends With You (Exes Who Can‘t Let Go, #2) (eBook, ePUB)

Every Goodbye Ends With YouA Lesbian Erotic Short Story by Vera NoireHarper Lane was never supposed to come back. Her life had been a blur of airports, casual flings, and nights that ended without names. The last decade was a carousel of cities that didn‘t care and lovers who never lasted past sunrise. But when the freelance gig dried up and her last breakup left more scars than satisfaction, she found herself crashing back into the one place she swore she‘d never see again: her North Carolina hometown.The town hadn‘t changed. Neither had the scent of honeysuckle in the air, or the way the local bar still played too much country. But she had changed. And so had Ava Carter.Ava was the girl Harper kissed once and then disappeared on. A long-ago almost. A beautiful mistake she never stopped fantasizing about. Ava had been her one real temptation. Not the kind you scratch and forget. The kind that burned under your skin for years.Now Ava was back, all grown up and breathtaking behind a camera lens, her gaze sharper than ever and far less forgiving.When they lock eyes at a wedding, the tension hits like a slap and seduces like a promise. Neither of them says it, but they both know why they‘re looking. Why they can‘t stop looking.What follows is a slow spiral into something hot and reckless every glance, every word layered with history, heat, and the unspoken question: What if we never got over this?Harper doesn‘t do relationships. She doesn‘t do second chances. But Ava? Ava makes her forget how to breathe. And when Harper ends up at Ava‘s place, pressed against a door with Ava‘s mouth on hers, she realizes something dangerous she doesn‘t want to run this time.This isn‘t just a second chance. It‘s a collision. A raw, intimate rediscovery of a connection too deep to ignore and too physical to resist.Every Goodbye Ends With You is a steamy, emotionally charged lesbian short story about ghosts of the past, the hunger of the present, and a woman who finally stops running. With vivid prose, smoldering chemistry, and scenes that toe the line between love and lust, Vera Noire delivers a tender, erotic exploration of what happens when desire lingers long after the door closes and what it means to reopen it.Because sometimes, the ones we leave behind are the only ones who ever really knew how to touch us.And sometimes, the end of running is just the beginning.
