An innocent art student. A hardened ex-con. A betrayal that will change everything.
Eighteen-year-old Jessa Glover is an art student whose life revolves around her classes, her sketchbooks, and her single mother, Annie. Kindhearted and forever drawn to broken souls, Annie has done the unthinkable: she’s married Rex Hartford, a muscular, heavily tattooed man serving a ten-year sentence for drug trafficking. Jessa is certain her mother is being conned by a dangerous criminal with ulterior motives—until Rex is released on parole and moves into their suburban home.
Jessa vows to keep her distance, but living under the same roof makes it impossible to ignore the intense, magnetic pull between them. Behind Rex's hardened exterior is a man who shares her deep passion for art—and a raw, dangerous desire that could destroy everything.
What begins as a single, guilt-ridden mistake quickly spirals into an addictive, secret affair. Bound by a forbidden attraction, Jessa and Rex plunge into a game of deception. With every stolen touch and rough, breathless encounter, Jessa finds herself falling helplessly in love, entirely consumed by a man who was supposed to be completely off-limits.
But their stolen paradise is a ticking time bomb. Ghosts from Rex’s past emerge from the underworld, bringing violence to their doorstep and forcing a terrifying confrontation that shatters the family dynamic entirely. When their affair is finally exposed, Jessa is forced to face the wreckage of her choices.
Can love truly be forged in the ashes of the ultimate betrayal, or is the weight of the truth too heavy?
Themes include taboo, stepdad, stepdaughter, age gap, enemies to lovers, dominant older man, submissive younger woman, bad boy, criminal, gangster, cheating, forbidden love, romance, daddy kink, and more.
