My Best Friend's Sister

A Forbidden Small Town Romance — Off-Limits, Irresistible, and Worth the Risk, HEA

De: Scarlett Cross, Helena von Heilig

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Jake Bennett ran a blind portfolio review. He followed the process. He made the right call.

Then he opened the full submission and found that L. West—whose photography portfolio had just earned a unanimous committee vote—was Lily West. Noah's stepsister. Someone he used to know, in a small town that remembers everything, where he is about to spend the next three months working alongside her on the most important festival of his career.

He keeps it professional. So does she. The festival is good—the best Marigold Cove has had in years—and the work they do together is genuinely excellent.

The problem is that a professional only holds until it doesn't, and someone is paying close attention to the moments when it slips.

When a photograph taken from the tree line ends up online with a headline about undisclosed ties and a compromised process, Jake has to reckon with what he protected and what he let slide—and whether the thing between him and Lily is worth the cost of owning it out loud.

Can be read as a standalone. Part of the Forbidden Series — Free in Kindle Unlimited.
