Summary
Jeremy knows he shouldn’t want her. Shuri is forbidden—his stepmother in name, untouchable in every way that matters. But desire is a dangerous thing, slipping through the cracks of restraint, turning glances into obsessions and distance into agony.
When a single moment shatters the fragile line between them, avoidance becomes impossible. Jealousy burns, longing festers, and every breath spent near her is a battle he cannot win.
But when Shuri finally pushes back, demanding he face what they both refuse to name, Jeremy is forced to choose: keep his distance or give in to the one thing he can never have.
