Some temptations are too close to ignore.
Monica Rivers has spent years building a quiet life for herself and her daughter Raina in their cozy Atlanta condo. Focused, guarded, and fiercely independent, she's done everything right until Zayden Carter moves in downstairs.
Young, smooth, and carrying a quiet fire beneath his easy smile, Zay is everything Monica knows she should stay away from. Especially since Raina seems to take a liking to their new neighbor almost immediately.
But proximity has a way of eroding good intentions. Late-night run-ins, lingering glances, and unspoken conversations begin to crack the walls Monica built around her heart. The closer Zay and Raina get, the harder Monica fights a desire she can't afford to acknowledge a desire that could destroy the careful balance she's fought to maintain.
Caught between loyalty, longing, and the fear of what's right versus what's real, Monica has to decide:
Some lines aren't meant to be crossed.
But what if the love you need the most is the one that's been living right downstairs?

Tahani sees through Montana's coldness, past the mask he shows the world. And Montana? He knows better than to let someone like her close. She's smart, too observant...and worst of all-she makes him feel. But in a world where love is dangerous and survival is never guaranteed...will a crooked smile be enough to save them, or will it cost them everything?
