Off Limits in Maple Falls

Emma Reyes came home to Maple Falls with four hundred dollars, a broken engagement, and exactly one job prospect left. She never expected that job to come with a boss like Levi Hart, or a rule that said falling for him wasn't an option. Levi built the Maple Falls Inn from nothing after a business partnership that cost him almost everything. His no-fraternization policy isn't just good business. It's armor. And it's worked for three years, until his new event coordinator walks through the door and makes every careful boundary he's built feel impossible to hold. Between wedding chaos, small-town gossip, and a secret that gets harder to keep every day, Emma and Levi have to decide what they're willing to risk for something neither of them saw coming. Because in a town where everyone knows your business before you do, the hardest rule to break isn't the one on paper. It's the one you make with your own heart. A steamy, swoony standalone small-town romance about second chances, forbidden attraction, and learning that some rules are meant to be broken.
