***
The Di Bianco brothers. Her best friends. Her greatest downfall.
Kamila Hamilton had everything under control...or so she thought. She hadn't planned for the Di Bianco brothers to return and turn her world upside down.
Thiago got her first kiss.
Taylor always protected her.
Their return makes Kami's seemingly perfect life shake. She is no longer the innocent young girl they once knew. Since they left, she's built walls and worn a mask to keep herself safe. The secrets they carry threaten to bring down those fragile walls and expose what happened so many years ago. Only they can reach the true Kami behind all those barriers.
Will Kami be able to resist Thiago's presence? What happens when Taylor starts to look at her differently? Will everything explode into a thousand pieces again?
Filled with angst, danger, and electric attraction, Tell Me Softly is perfect for readers looking for:
