A small-town brother's best friend romance from the bestselling author of Flawless and Wild Love. � I kissed my best friend's little sister, and the world stood still. That night we were two perfect strangers, the town's grumpy recluse and a gorgeous girl in the back of a bar. Until we weren't. Because Nadia Dalca isn't just some girl, she's the girl I can't have. Fourteen years younger than me and completely off-limits. � My plan is to stay away, but the universe keeps pushing us together. It's like some sort of cosmic joke, to give me a taste of something so electric - so real - that breathed life back into me. Because I can look, but I can't touch. Her sinful curves, her light-hearted laughter, her wild side. I'm addicted to every last bit of her. � And when she turns those sultry eyes on me, so full of longing and free of judgement? I've always considered myself a strong man but, when she looks at me, I'm weak. To give in to our connection would be a betrayal. Her brother is the only family she has left and, sad as it sounds, he's also my only friend. � But I kissed her again anyway. And now I can't stop.
