The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 1924
Stella rolled over, just about to drift into a deep sleep, when a heavy weight settled over her. A man pinned her beneath him, his lips capturing hers.
Lately, Joshua seemed to be growing less and less gentle. Every time they were intimate, Stella felt a flicker of apprehension, even going so far as to deliberately stay up late to avoid him.
Feeling his eager kiss, her sleepiness vanished instantly. She snapped her eyes open, meeting a pair of dark, quiet eyes.
"Joshua, I'm a little tired. I just want to sleep."
He looked down at her, a cryptic smile playing on his lips. "Star, that's exactly what you said last night."
Stella's eyes darted away guiltily. "How about tomorrow? Can you just let me rest today?"
Joshua gazed at her, his expression unreadable. "I've noticed you've been avoiding me these past two days. Did I do something wrong? Or is there something I'm doing that you don't like?"
Stella felt a headache coming on. Joshua was entirely too perceptive. No matter what excuse she made, he always saw right through it. Just like Abby had said—when you were with Joshua Gardner, you couldn't get away with anything.
"No," Stella sighed. "It's just that too much has been happening lately, and I'm just not in the mood."
"Are you upset because Wilbur left?" he asked suddenly.
He stared at her without blinking, his dark eyes as deep and unfathomable as an abyss, looking as if they could pierce straight into her soul. Under that intense gaze, lying was impossible. There was no point in even trying to find an excuse.

The same rotation blaming Stella trying to get her destroyed. Isn't the writer tired of writing the same foolishness overand over again? This is exhausting....
Can’t wait to see what joshua will do...
Why would the author of this book do that to Stella? Such cruelty!...
So many chapters are incomplete. Missing pages. Hard to get continuity...
