    About this ebook

    Can you fall in love with someone you’ve never met?

    Chloe has. Or, at least, she’s fallen into lust with the man who lives in the apartment opposite hers. Night after night they catch glimpses of each other going through their evening routines. But it’s a delicious surprise when things take a more salacious turn inviting her into a voyeuristic fantasy.

    Mason can’t believe his luck that he’s found himself in what can only be described as the perfect relationship. Companionship, nightly stress relief, and all without having to deal with any drama. All he has to do is look across the way at the gorgeous siren in the window who’s more than happy to play along.

    But what happens when watching is no longer enough?

    Kait Gamble

    Kait was born and raised in the wilderness of the Pacific Northwest and started writing to entertain herself during the long winters as a child. Insatiably curious with a love of learning new things, she’s picked up many random skills including three languages and two martial arts. After travelling three continents (the other four are on her bucket list), she settled in England with her family where she spends most of her time cultivating her daughter’s love of reading and writing, scribbling ideas on every available scrap of paper, and trying out dialogue on her cat.

      Chapter One

      March

      Chloe shuffled through the door and with a disgusted grunt, she swung her heel against it to seal her sanctum. The moment it slammed shut, she dropped her bags on the floor.

      What a supremely terrible day.

      First, she was late for a meeting with the big boss. She figured he’d let it slide since it had been the first time since she’d begun working there three months prior. But nope. Then, as if the boss chewing her out in front of the entire board wasn’t bad enough to start the day, her computer decided to lock itself out of the network for some unknown reason causing hours of disruption. And finally, as she was leaving, her ex had been waiting for her. A man she never wanted to see again had decided to meet her outside and pretend their breakup, which had happened almost half a year before, had never occurred.

      It had taken all her persuasive skills and some yelling to get it through his thick skull that they were never getting back together again and to leave her alone. Hadn’t it been enough that she had moved to another country to get away from him? Even then, she wasn’t entirely sure he’d understood that she was serious about never seeing him again.

      Now all she wanted to do was have something to eat, definitely something to drink, the latter preferably while soaking in a nice hot bath.

      Chloe flicked on a lamp and made her usual call to the excellent Chinese restaurant down the street. Knowing there would be a thirty-five-minute wait, she tidied up the mess she’d left at the door, though the thought of looking at the work she’d brought home with her was repugnant. Instead she strode to the window to stare at the city as it bustled below.

      Paris.

      Her mother’s home. As a child, Chloe had been told story after story about the seemingly magical city. For as long as she could remember, she’d always wanted to live there. So, the moment the opportunity arose, she took the plunge. It hadn’t taken her long to find the perfect apartment. A penthouse on the seventh floor in the 8th arrondissement was a spectacular find and she’d pounced immediately. When she finally moved into the building, it felt like home. The city had never let her down. Charles on the other hand…

      Setting aside thoughts of her ex, Chloe lifted her gaze to the building across the way. The fact that she could see directly into a few of the multipaned windows used to bother her, but now it helped with the loneliness of living alone in the city. Seeing others going about their lives had a soothing quality.

      That was a predilection she’d never seen coming.

      Sighing, she undid the tight bun her hair had been trapped in and shook it loose. As she massaged her scalp, Chloe caught a glimpse of movement out of the corner of her eye.

      She turned to the window where her attention always seemed to be drawn—right across the way. They both had penthouses. He didn’t seem to feel the need to make use of curtains or blinds, while Chloe left hers open until she went to bed. It allowed her to see inside the rooms he inhabited. While she couldn’t see everything, she was close enough to witness what was happening as if it were a modular television.

      There he was. Tall, broad-shouldered, dark-haired, and so very sexy. Even across the distance, she could see that. Almost feel it. He exuded power and privilege. It was there in his bearing, the feline grace of his movements. But he was no weakling. He had the long lean body of someone who worked hard to maintain it. She could see from the way the clothing pulled on his skin as he moved that
