Off Limits II - Between Us

You're now 22.

Senior year was supposed to be the easy part.

You have the house, the man who stopped flinching for you. You have a deed with both your names on it, a ring on your finger, soon to be married and a life you never thought you'd have.

Summer is over.

The cart-girl uniform is folded away. The secrets and chaos of that first reckless season are supposed to be behind you. What remains is the two of you and the fact that you're still completely, stupidly in love.

But college doesn't care about any of that.

A campus full of people who have no idea you go home to a man years older who used to be your father's best friend.

Students flirt. Some don't take the ring on your finger as an answer. Some don't seem to understand the warning in Beau's eyes when he picks you up. Jealousy cuts both ways. Beau has never had to share your attention with an entire university and you've never had to watch younger women look at him like he's still available.

And your father? He's done playing small.

The quiet threats are over. Now he's using every connection, rumor, financial and social lever he has left to tear your engagement apart before it becomes permanent. He doesn't care that the house is yours. He doesn't care that your tuition is paid.

He only cares that the man living in it used to be family to him and that you chose him anyway.

Between morning classes and midnight arguments, jealousy that tastes like panic and a love that still feels like the only true thing you've ever done, you and Beau are trying to build something that can survive both a campus and a man who refuses to lose.

Senior year was supposed to be the easy part.

It isn't.

Some lines, once crossed, don't just stay crossed.

They keep demanding more.

Face claim: Jensen Ackles as Beau Arlen.
