Heat

She came home for the summer. She didn’t expect him.

When she returns from college, the last person she expects to be drawn to is him. Her stepfather. Older. Off-limits. But the moment their eyes meet again, the air between them crackles with tension, charged with everything they’re not supposed to feel.

He’s magnetic and fighting every instinct to keep things right. She’s no longer a girl, and the way he looks at her now says everything he’s trying not to say.

In the sweltering heat of summer, desire simmers between them until it finally boils over into stolen touches, whispered confessions, and nights that blur every line. As their connection deepens and secrets threaten to surface, they must choose: resist the fire, or let it consume everything.
