What begins as tension slowly shifts into something real, something healing, something they never saw coming. Sometimes love doesn't arrive gently.

So when the manager assigns them to co-run the annual Christmas charity event, neither of them takes it well.

As lines blur and temptation rises, Solei realizes she might be stepping into something deeper than a forbidden love and lesson - something that could change everything she thought she knew about him... and herself. A quiet girl. A complicated man. A love neither one of them saw coming. Secrets, tension, and danger - but you won't know how deep it goes until you turn the page. 🥇In literature 1/1/26 🥈 In Double Life 12/30/25 🥉Urban Novel 12/30/25
