"that's the thing about illicit affairs, clandestine meetings and longing stares" ricky bowen did not expect himself to fall into the arms of one lily chapman after his breakup with the only girl he'd thought he'd ever love. but she's beautiful, she looks kind, even when she isn't being it. there's something about her behind closed doors that gives him thoughts beyond those he'd even imagined possible. let's just hope no one finds out about their forbidden romance... -- definitely more a series in parts than a cohesive fic... but it's cute i promise. (infrequent updates). i technically started this in mid july 2021, but didn't publish until mid september 2021.
