Can’t wait for the finale to Sylvia Day’s Crossfire saga? You’re in luck! We’ve got an exclusive excerpt from the first two chapters of ONE WITH YOU that you can read right now:

New York was the city that never slept; it never even got sleepy. My condo on the Upper West Side had the level of soundproofing expected in a multimillion-dollar property, but still the sounds of the city filtered in—the rhythmic thumping of tires over the well-worn streets, the protests of weary air brakes, and the nonstop honking of taxi horns.
