Family Ties

Mason never expected a family reunion to stir up so many emotions. But when he steps into the familiar lakeside lodge, he's instantly hit with memories—and a secret longing he’s tried to bury for years.

After a decade apart, Mason finds himself face-to-face with his stepbrother, Julian. Once the golden boy of the family, Julian is now a confident, irresistible man—but the chemistry between them is undeniable.

When Mason accidentally discovers Julian’s journal, he learns of the feelings that were never confessed—and suddenly, the tension between them feels impossible to ignore. As their passions reignite under the same roof that once held their shared history, Mason and Julian give in to the attraction they’ve both tried to resist for too long.

What starts as a simple, stolen kiss quickly becomes a deep, consuming connection neither can escape. Torn between the past they’ve tried to move on from and a future full of possibility, Mason and Julian must decide if they’re willing to risk everything for a love neither of them ever expected.
