The Pool Boy Pact

Tessa never expected a pool technician to become the most anticipated part of her week.

Every Thursday morning, Cole arrives to skim leaves, check chemicals, and keep the backyard looking perfect. He’s younger than her, handsome enough to make her notice, and completely off-limits.

Or at least he should be.

When her husband catches the way she watches Cole through the kitchen window, Tessa braces for jealousy, suspicion, maybe even a fight.

Instead, Grant surprises her.

What begins as a playful conversation soon becomes something far more dangerous: complete honesty. No secrets. No pretending. No shame.

As curiosity grows into attraction, Tessa finds herself exploring desires she never expected to share out loud. But the greatest surprise isn’t the man by the pool.

It’s the husband standing beside her, encouraging her to discover what she truly wants.

Because sometimes the strongest marriages aren’t built on avoiding temptation.

They’re built on facing it together.

The Pool Boy Pact is a steamy, emotional hotwife romance about trust, desire, communication, and a husband who loves his wife enough to let her fly.
