Forbidden Single Daddy : An Age Gap, Single Dad Romance

He’s forbidden. He’s older. He’s my professor. God help me, I’m in trouble.

I moved in with my dad’s best friend.
Yes he’s my professor.
And he’s completely off-limits.
Yet somehow, I’m falling for him.
I lose my apartment in a fire and end up in the last place I should ever be.
His guesthouse.
He’s distant, disciplined, and dangerous in ways I don’t even want to think about.
He’s my dad’s closest friend.
And the man that grades my papers.
I tell myself this is temporary.
Just a bed.
Just a roof.
Just until I get back on my feet.
Then I start tutoring his daughter.
Cooking in his kitchen.
Noticing the way he watches me when he thinks I’m not looking.
He pulls away.
I want more.
We pretend nothing is happening while everything is.
I fall for him in quiet moments I never admit out loud..
In late nights.
In the way he teaches me.
In the way he never touches me.
Until the rumors start.
Until the investigation begins.
Until loving him could destroy both our lives.
Because the worst part isn’t risking my reputation.
It’s knowing I’d still choose him anyway.

This is a full-length standalone age-gap, forbidden, father’s best friend, single dad, forced proximity romance with a grumpy hero, he-falls-first energy, and plenty of emotional tension.

No cheating. Happily Ever After guaranteed.
