Breaking the Rules

Breaking the Rules is a sizzling, slow-burn romance about secrets, chemistry, and a friends-with-benefits pact destined to fall apart.

He has a secret. She has a rule.
Neither is ready for what happens when desire starts rewriting the terms.

Marcos has always lived by one rule: never get involved. With a secret that could wreck any relationship, he's kept everyone at a distance—until he meets Mariah. She's chaos in lipstick, a free-spirited visual artist who crashes into his life like a storm during an elective class. Gorgeous, bold, and completely unpredictable, she flips his carefully controlled world upside down.

Mariah has her own boundaries. After watching her mother change everything for love—over and over again—she swore she'd never let a romance steer her life. Marcos is charming, sure. Smart, sexy, and way too tempting. But she's determined to keep him in the friend zone. Nothing more.

Until a mutual agreement changes everything.

One set of rules. No feelings. No expectations. No falling in love.

But when their connection ignites and secrets start to surface, the lines between casual and complicated blur fast—and the risk of breaking all the rules becomes impossible to ignore.
