He’s an ex-NFL star turned hometown hero, and I’m just the little sister he barely notices.
He’s living in a luxurious apartment in my brother’s newly-renovated hotel, while I’m here to finish decorating it—against my will, might I add.
Falling for him is absolutely out of the question.
Especially since I already did that once… a year ago. Back then, I made the mistake of confessing my feelings, only for him to shut me down so hard I swore I’d never let him near my heart again.
Now, thanks to my meddling brother, we’re stuck sharing a hallway. And if the way Parker’s smoldering eyes linger on me is any clue, he’s fighting the same temptation I am.
The problem? My brother can never know.
Parker Davis is the one man I’m not allowed to want.
But what if he’s the only one I’ll ever need?
