One reckless night. One unexpected stranger. One roof that changes everything. Ava never imagined that getting drunk would lead her straight into the arms of Julian—a cold, older man whose piercing gaze could silence anyone. Their encounter was supposed to end before sunrise. Instead, fate keeps throwing them back together. Forced to live under the same roof, every shared glance, every accidental touch, and every stolen moment chips away at the walls between them. The chemistry is impossible to ignore, but so are the secrets Julian refuses to reveal. The closer Ava gets, the more she realizes Julian is hiding a past capable of destroying everything they’ve built. Some temptations are impossible to resist. Some secrets are impossible to forgive. And sometimes, the person who feels most like home is the one who can break your heart the hardest.
