For the longest time, Ky'Lynn thought King saw her as his annoying little sister the one he had to protect. But that couldn't be further from the truth. He's overprotective in more ways than he'll ever admit. He scares off every man who even looks her way... because deep down, he wants her for himself. He can't help it. He always finds ways to be near her even when he shouldn't be. He loves to get under her skin, loves the way her anger burns bright when he pushes her buttons. But what happens when he can't stop touching her? When her smooth, warm skin becomes his favorite sin? When every glance, every word, and every stolen moment pulls him deeper into something he swore he'd never feel? There's just one problem... Their brother and both of their families have forbidden King from ever seeing Ky'Lynn that way. They say it's to protect her from his heartless, ruthless demeanor. But maybe... it's something bigger. Because no one has ever managed to tie King down. Until now. But we all know when something is forbidden, it only makes you want it more. 💋❤️ Read to find out how the story ends.

ALL IT TOOK WAS ONE NIGHT

When Ayanna is forced into a job working for her parents' trusted college friend, she expects structure-not the quiet pull of a man who sees her more clearly than anyone ever has. Langston, a forty-three-year-old record label owner and divorcé, lives by rules that don't allow desire, especially not for his employee or the daughter of people he respects. As long hours and industry chaos draw them closer, attraction turns into something dangerous neither of them is willing to name. With her parents tightening their grip and her dreams of an artistic life slipping further away, Ayanna must choose between approval and authenticity. For Langston, loving her could cost him his reputation, his principles, and the one line he's sworn never to cross.
