The Neighbor's Son

Getting dumped was rough.

Losing the baby? Heartbreaking.

Now I'm thirty-six, single, and stuck in a body I barely recognize.

Clara says I need fresh air and a fling.

I wasn't expecting the fresh air to come with a stolen cat...

Or him.

Brayden Foss.

My sweet, quiet neighbor.

Freshly eighteen.

My landlord's son.

Totally off-limits.

But he's not a boy.

He cooks for me, looks at me like I'm everything, and shows up when no one else does.

Even when I push him away.

It was never supposed to be more than a spark.

But this thing between us?

It's real. It's wild. It's ours.

A spicy, emotional age-gap romance featuring a soft but protective younger man, a broken-hearted older woman, and one meddling cat. No cheating. No cliffhanger. HEA guaranteed. This is a two-hour read and can be devoured in one sitting. This story takes place in the Taboo Streets world and can be read as a complete standalone.

Trigger Warning: Mention of prior miscarriage and body image insecurities.
