Some fruit’s forbidden for a reason. Others are just ripe for the taking.
Becca Jamison thought the romantic getaway to Mexico might finally end with a ring. Instead, her longtime boyfriend Jack ditches her—again—for tequila shots and flirting with strangers. But Becca isn’t entirely alone.
Clive Bishop, Jack’s soon-to-be ex–stepfather, is older, off-limits, and far too tempting. He’s also the only man on that trip who actually sees her. When a slow-burn attraction erupts into a kiss that sets the sand on fire, Becca knows it’s wrong… and that she’s never been so turned on in her life.
One kiss becomes a secret obsession. One night becomes a choice.
Back in New York, Becca tries to bury the scandalous spark between her and Clive—but he’s not ready to let her go. And when he finds out Jack wants her back, Clive doesn’t just fight dirty—he goes public. Now Becca’s caught between the ghost of a dead-end relationship and a man who kisses like sin and wants to claim her in every way.
