Overview

"Guardian angel meets gentle soul in this tender tale of forbidden love. Can a newly separated single dad and his former ward bridge the gap between protection and passion, or will family ties keep paradise just out of reach?"

Yves Beauvais

For years, I've silently loved Adam Hudson from afar. The man who became my protector, my rock, my everything when I lost my grandma. He carried me through the darkest times of my life, but he was always just out of reach, twelve years my senior and married to someone else.

Now Adam's back in Willowbrook Valley, newly separated and more irresistible than ever. I've returned to the Hudson family farm to care for his infant son, Eden, but one look from those deep-blue eyes, and I'm that orphaned boy again, yearning to be carried to paradise in his strong arms.

Being near Adam awakens feelings I've tried so hard to bury. As we navigate this new dynamic, the line between familial love and something more begins to blur. But with his own struggles to face, I'm terrified of jeopardizing the only family I've ever known. Can I find the courage to ask Adam to carry me into a future where our love can flourish? Or will my dreams of paradise remain forever in the shadow?

Adam Hudson

Coming home to Willowbrook Valley was supposed to be my chance to heal, to figure out where my life went wrong. Instead, I find myself face-to-face with Yves Beauvais, the boy I helped raise, now a man who stirs feelings I never expected to have.

I've always loved Yves, but this… this is different. Dangerous. Intoxicating. With my marriage in shambles and a baby son to raise, Yves' gentle presence is both a comfort and a temptation I'm not sure I can resist.

As we care for Eden together, I'm forced to confront truths about myself I've long ignored. Yves deserves someone unburdened, someone who can carry him to the paradise he dreams of. But the more time we spend together, the harder it becomes to deny that he might be my paradise too.
