I boarded Dreamboat Cruises expecting sunshine, cocktails, and girl time. My roommate bailing at the last minute felt like a win. Until I opened my cabin door and found a very confused, very shirtless stranger already unpacking.

I came to Douglas University for a fresh start—for hockey games, new friends, and a life free from tangled family drama. But then I saw him. Chase Wilson. My stepbrother. The boy I loved before I knew better. He left six years ago and I hadn't seen or heard from him.

The Great One. 1’s on the Enneagram. Beyonce’s first solo album. And relationships? “One night only” seems to be my preferred status. I’m sure a therapist would have opinions, but I boil it down to this: my schedule is slammed as a pharma rep, and I get bored easily.

The only thing worse than crossing the line is wanting to…Living with my boyfriend Logan should have been everything I wanted—until I realized his best friend, Rob Thompson, came with the deal. Rob and I are like oil and water, fire and gasoline, sworn enemies under one roof.
