A forbidden summer. A dangerous attraction. A line begging to be crossed.
When twenty-one-year-old Samantha Whitmore returns to her father's farmhouse for the summer, the last thing she expects is him. Everett Mahoney - her father's best friend, now back in town to help fix up the place. Older. Taller. Broader. And devastatingly handsome.
It's been over a decade since Sam last saw Everett, but he's nothing like she remembers. With his mischievous smirk, quiet confidence, and hands that make broken things whole, Everett awakens something in her she's never dared explore.
What starts as innocent glances and teasing banter quickly blurs into something much more dangerous. She knows it's wrong. He knows it's off-limits. But when tension sparks into heat, and heat into longing... will they be able to stop before everything catches fire?
A slow-burn, age-gap romance full of temptation, tension, and the thrill of the one person you shouldn't want.
