Tempting Dreams

When there's an emergency, Hudson rushes to help—only to find Angela in lingerie, igniting a spark that neither of them can ignore.

When the pipe in Angela’s boutique bursts, I’m the first one she calls for help. But I’m not prepared for the sight waiting for me.


Angela—fierce, independent, and very off-limits—standing in nothing but silky lingerie.

She ignites a spark in me that I can’t ignore. 


With her shop flooded and repairs dragging on, Angela and her daughter move into my rental property. Now we’re working together, sharing stories, late-night takeout, and stolen glances that feel anything but innocent. Working side by side to rebuild her dream only brings us closer—closer than is safe. Closer than I ever planned.


And then I walk in on her “photo shoot.”


Soft lighting. Silky lingerie. Her body arched for the camera. For me.


Every ounce of restraint I have left starts to crumble.


Because the more time I spend with her and her little girl, the more I don’t just want Angela in my bed—I want her in my life. In my future. I start to see something I’ve never let myself want before: a family.


But just when I’m ready to risk everything for forever, someone shatters her privacy—and it’s all my fault.


I’ll do whatever it takes to prove to Angela that I’m not just the man who wants her body…I’m the man who wants her forever.
