Pursuance

He’s the son my dad never had. The man I was never supposed to want.
But I’ve waited long enough. And I always get what I want.

Jeremy has been in my life forever, always calm, always in control, always keeping a safe distance. He’s older, responsible, and loyal to my father in a way that would make crossing the line unforgivable.

But I see the way he looks at me when he thinks I won’t notice.
The flicker of something he’s trying too hard to hide.
And now that I’m eighteen, I’m done hiding too.

I flirt. I push. I test him.
He backs away. Until he doesn’t.
And when that wall finally cracks… it’s not gentle. It’s not careful. It’s everything.

Jeremy wants to pretend he’s still the protector, still the good man.
But you can’t play innocent with your mouth on sin.

He says it can’t happen.
I say it already is.

Pursuance is a forbidden age gap romance filled with slow-burn tension, explosive drama, and the kind of love that breaks every rule before it even begins. For readers who crave strong heroines, emotionally unavailable men, and the thrill of chasing what shouldn’t be caught.
