My Ex's Father: A Forbidden Age Gap Romance

He was supposed to be off limits. He ended up being everything. Emma only came back for one reason: return the box, close the door, and never see the Hayes family again. Twelve months of carefully avoiding her ex - and the house she used to think of as home. She didn't plan on Daniel Hayes being there. Her ex's father. Silver at his temples, quiet authority in his voice, and a way of looking at her like she's the only person in the room worth taking seriously. One conversation shouldn't feel like this. One dinner shouldn't feel like a date. And falling into his bed should feel like a mistake - not like the first thing that's made sense in a year. But secrets in a small town have teeth. His son. Her job. Every whisper waiting to catch fire. When it all comes out, Emma and Daniel have to decide what they're willing to lose - and whether a love this forbidden can be chosen on purpose, in daylight, with their eyes open. My Ex's Father is a steamy, emotionally charged forbidden romance featuring a brooding silver fox hero, an age gap that raises eyebrows, small-town scandal, and a hard-won HEA. Standalone. No cliffhanger. Intended for readers 18+.
