What Love Is by Avril Ashton

One month. Zero expectations. That’s the agreement.

Who has time for a relationship? Not Seraphina Cook. She’s too focused on keeping her son in her life and running the criminal empire she wrestled from her dead husband’s grip. Well, she would be, if she wasn’t distracted by the young, cocky, and very dangerous man she blackmailed into her bed.
She didn’t need a bargain to get him, but Toro doesn’t mind. Whatever got him close to Seraphina, he’d take. Still, their allotted time together isn’t nearly long enough to prove he’s more than just a conquest to be used up and discarded. Their sizzling connection is the only thing they seem to agree on and Toro has no qualms about leveraging that to get what he wants.
Sera has given herself one month to indulge in—and rid herself of—the reckless attraction she feels for Toro. But when he touches her, when he looks at her, she finds herself thinking about the what-ifs.
What if she took what Toro offered?
What if she trusted someone else to have her back?
And what if she finally allowed herself to be loved the way she deserved to be?
