An Off-Limits Age Gap Romance - Bad Timing, Worse Chemistry #989948

Bad Timing. Worse Chemistry. One very dangerous temptation.

Mara Bellamy knows exactly three things about Callum Veyre.

He's twenty years older.

He's her sister's business partner.

And he's completely, catastrophically off-limits.

Unfortunately, none of that explains why her pulse goes wild whenever he walks into a room.

Callum has spent years perfecting the art of self-control. He's successful, disciplined, and absolutely certain that Mara is a line he will never cross.

Then a winter storm traps them together at Blackthorn House.

Suddenly, there are late-night conversations beside dying fireplaces. Accidental touches that linger too long. Arguments that feel suspiciously like flirting. And one locked guest wing neither of them is supposed to enter.

Mara knows their timing couldn't be worse.

Callum knows wanting her could cost him everything.

But chemistry doesn't care about timing.

And when one reckless night changes the rules between them, they have to decide whether protecting everyone else's expectations is worth losing the one person neither of them can forget.

Some romances are inconvenient.

Some are impossible.

And some are impossible until you stop fighting them.
