She’s spent her entire life giving. He wants to teach her to receive.

Paige

After a misunderstanding at my last job, Wetherly Prep is my chance to start over. I live by professional boundaries, but when Jake Ashby walks into my office, desperate about his son, I forget them all.

Jake’s a local boatbuilder—tall, ruggedly handsome, and very good with his hands. He’s also the most generous man I’ve ever met. So generous, he’ll stop at nothing to give me everything I need…

And I mean everything.

Jake

My son is my world, and lately he’s slipping away. When I learn he’s confiding in the school’s new guidance counselor, I need to be involved. To know she can handle it.

The last thing I expect is Paige Mercer. Young, breathtaking, and so used to pouring herself into others that she’s forgotten how to take. She thinks she’s helping my son, but I’m determined to teach her how to receive.

I’m nearly two decades older than her, but it’s not the age gap that scares me. It’s the betrayal my son would feel if he found out… and the heartbreak of losing the one woman neither of us knew we needed.

Spicy, forbidden romance
