Eighteen-year-old Iris Howell thought she was living her best life until those two pink lines showed up on the pregnancy test. In a flash, all her future dreams went up in smoke. Ten years later, she's now a single mom to a rambunctious little girl who has become her world. It wasn't easy having to grow up so quickly without the support of her high school sweetheart, but she's doing her best. Dating was the furthest thing on her mind, but her best friend still insisted she sign up for a dating app to see if Mr. Right Now was out there somewhere. Little did she know, one of her first matches would be Monty King, her high school boyfriend's older brother. She can't deny her attraction to him or how he makes her feel, but she knows this is a mess just waiting to happen. Montgomery King may have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but that wasn't the life he wanted to live. He never fit in with the lifestyle his upper-class parents tried to force him into and he never got along with his lazy brother who was more than happy to lazily mooch off the family dollar. He took the first chance he could to join the military and do something better with his life. His years in the military are well done and he's still avoided his family and their money-hungry ways until his company relocates to his hometown. The only good part about the move is reconnecting with Iris Howell, even if she is his brother's ex-girlfriend. Iris isn't looking for a relationship and certainly isn't trying to find herself tied down with another King brother and she has good reason not to. However, Monty is making it his new mission to show her that she was with the wrong brother before.

Toni thought she was in the prime of her off, but her heart had different plans. After a life saving transplant, she's got a new lease on life.

"It's... it's wrong." He stops leaning close to me and leans just a little back, to be able to look into my eyes, but it doesn't give me enough space to breathe again. I'm still burning, both of us are, and I know I want him so badly that I start to feel angry about myself. I even start asking myself, asking that maybe it isn't how it looks like, that maybe he wasn't dating my sister, maybe there was something more behind it. I hesitantly look up at him. The swirls of emotion I see there make me gasp. Lust and desire. Burning, like he was wild, like I was the finest meal he ever saw, impatient to eat me. To kiss me. And I can't deny it to myself anymore. I want him to kiss me. "Fuck the wrong." I am completely unprepared, before I could realize that, he yanked me to him and covered my mouth with his in a hungry kiss. * Charly's sister disappeared, like she never existed before at all - as later discovered, that she was living two lives instead of one.
