The Tempting Part
(2026)(The fifth book in the Happy Endings in Clover Park series)
A novel by Kylie Gilmore
A slow burn frenemies-to-lovers romance!
Harper
When we were kids, Nathan Brooks was my best friend. Until he wasn’t, which is something I refuse to talk about. (He knows what he did.) Unfortunately, my family never stopped adoring the jerk, so I get the joy of seeing him at every family event. Am I the only one who got the memo that he’s death to every party?
And the fact that he’s morphed into the most perfectly made man ever? Don’t care. He has zero effect on me. So when he offers a free apartment over his garage, I take it.
All he has to do is give me space and stop coming over unannounced. His personal handyman service is starting to make me suspect he wants something from me.
Nathan
I didn’t expect it to be easy to mend fences with Harper, but I thought offering her a rent-free apartment would soften her up. The jury is still out on that fence, but she took the bait after I told her I had a girlfriend. Friend zone achieved.
Also achieved? Getting my parents to stop planning blind dates for me since they now think I’m in a committed relationship. Yes, with the girl who just moved in. I don’t normally lie, but something bigger’s at stake, and I’m not about to admit the truth yet.
Only now I’ve backed myself into an unseen corner after getting a taste of a hidden side of Harper that I’m finding damn near irresistible.
At some point I have to come clean with everyone, but that can wait. I just hope they’ll all forgive me once the truth gets out.
