In the heart of London, a grand masquerade ball brings together two strangers in an enchanting encounter. Jake, captivated by Amelia's striking mint green eyes, shares a passionate moment with her before she vanishes into the night, leaving him with only a haunting memory of their connection. Determined to find her, Jake embarks on a relentless search that leads him to a strip club, where he discovers Amelia's hidden life.

Amelia, a young woman burdened with the responsibility of caring for her twin siblings, has resorted to stripping to make ends meet.

As their paths cross again, they must navigate the complexities of their vastly different lives and the secrets they each hold.

"Not What He Expected" is a story of love, resilience, and the unexpected turns life takes. As Jake and Amelia's lives intertwine, they uncover truths about themselves and each other, forging a bond that challenges their perceptions and changes their lives forever. Will their connection be strong enough to bridge the gap between their worlds, or will the secrets they uncover drive them apart?
