I’m trapped with my brother’s billionaire best friend. Lucas Dean—the boy who broke my heart—has returned to Willowbrook. Richer. Colder. Arrogant. And still completely off-limits. Me? I’m the sunshine mess, who can’t stay out of trouble. When a storm wrecks my cottage, fate shoves us back together, and Lucas offers me his guesthouse—against his rules and mine. Suddenly, we’re under one roof, every day my clumsy chaos collides with his rigid rules. Then the cracks appear. The late-night talks. The protective touches. The way his eyes soften when he looks at me. Every unguarded moment pulls me deeper into trouble. Somewhere between his armor and my mess, I fall—for the man he hides, for the boy who once made me laugh, for the grumpy billionaire who makes my heart race. Falling for him feels inevitable—but in a town where gossip spreads like wildfire, if my brother finds out, it won’t just break us…it could burn everything down. A clean, small-town romance where sizzling chemistry meets forbidden love—and neither one stands a chance. .
