Tessa Morgan never wanted to step into her sister's world this way. Taking care of Lauren was supposed to be simple-helping the sister she loves through illness, standing by her side, no matter the cost. But there's nothing simple about the way Tessa feels when Adrian Moore looks at her. He's her sister's husband. A good man. Someone she could never hurt. And yet, his quiet strength has become the one thing Tessa can't stop wanting-and absolutely cannot have. Adrian knows what's at stake. Lauren is everything to him. But Tessa? Tessa makes him feel alive in a way he forgot was possible. Every touch, every shared glance hangs on the edge of guilt and desire. Every unsaid word swings between the truth and lies. But when the truth comes to light, they'll risk shattering the one woman they both swore to protect. And lies aren't meant to hold this much weight. "It's a line they can't cross, so they meet at the edge of almost."

💔 Where It Hurts the Most - Part One: The Hurt Series He's her brother's best friend. A cop. Too old. Too off-limits. Rowan Hayes stopped caring the day her brother died. At seventeen, she's reckless, wild, and halfway to self-destruction-drinking too much, feeling too little, doing everything she can to forget. And Nate Delaney? He's the one picking up the pieces. Writing her up. Dragging her out. Dropping her off. The cop who's supposed to follow the rules- But breaks every single one when it comes to her. He promised he'd take care of her. But every time he sees her like this- Drunk. High. With the wrong guy. Something inside him cracks. She's the girl who doesn't want to be saved. He's the man who's breaking himself trying. He touches when he shouldn't. Stays when he should walk away. And looks at her like she's already his. The more he protects her, the harder it is to pretend he doesn't want her. And the closer they get, the more impossible it becomes to walk away. She's too young. He's sworn to stay away. But some lines don't just get crossed. They get shattered.
