A Little Off-Limits

Lyndie Madden is back at the family’s lake house, hiding the fact she lost her nursing job and trying not to let her overprotective brothers see how much she’s struggling. She’s determined to keep her heart guarded—especially from Luke Ford, her brother’s best friend and the one man she promised herself she’d never fall for again.

Luke Ford has always known Lyndie was off limits. Best friend to her brothers and practically family, he’s spent years burying the feelings he’s never been allowed to show. But now, back at the lake, those feelings won’t stay quiet—and neither will the memories of the kiss they shared that changed everything.

Caught between loyalty and desire, Luke has to decide: risk losing his place in the family or finally tell Lyndie the truth.

With family chaos, stolen moments, and a week at Table Rock Lake that changes everything, Lyndie and Luke face a choice—hold back or take a chance on love, even if it’s a little off limits.
