Breaking the Code

When Briar reunites with her best friend, Zephyra, at college, she's expecting laughter, late-night talks, and a life away from the control of her overbearing parents. But what she doesn't expect is Killian-the dangerously attractive, magnetic man whose mere presence seems to pull her in. He's everything she shouldn't want-especially because he belongs to Zephyra.

As Briar fights her growing desire for Killian, she finds herself entangled in a forbidden, electric connection that neither of them can deny. Every glance, every accidental touch, only draws them closer to a line they shouldn't cross.

"We shouldn't do this, Killian," Briar whispers, her voice wavering.

He steps closer, his eyes darkening with intensity, his breath hot against her skin. "Trust me, I can't control this, Briar. It's not in my hands. My hands want you." His fingers slip under her shirt, grazing her bare waist, each touch setting her heart ablaze.

In a whirlwind of secrets, passion, and loyalty, Briar is forced to choose between the friendship that has meant everything to her and the desire that threatens to consume her whole.
