Secrets, Lies, and Temptation: A Forbidden Age Gap Romance

A woman torn between two worlds, a forbidden attraction, and a love worth breaking all the rules for...

Nils Larssen may have started as a Swedish exchange student, but he now manages three of Hollywood's hottest rock clubs. Which leaves little time for a personal life. Not that he’s looking for one, as he’s still nursing the wounds of unrequited love — for his boss, of all people. The last thing he expects is to be captivated by the grown-up version of his original host family's little girl. He knows he shouldn’t, given that he’s twelve years older and he’s sure her conservative parents wouldn’t approve. Still, it’s nearly impossible for him to resist temptation.

Alexsis Monaghan is living two lives: dutiful Mormon daughter on Sundays, adult film actress turned rock journalist and sex club regular every other day of the week. When she reconnects with her childhood crush, she discovers he's the only person who might accept both sides of her. But letting him in means risking everything — including the family who would disown her if they knew the truth.

As their passion ignites, Alexsis must decide between the life her parents demand and the love that sets her free. But when her carefully constructed double life starts to crumble, she pushes away the one person who sees her for who she really is. Can Nils break through her walls before she destroys their chance at happiness? And will Alexsis find the courage to choose love over lies before it's too late?
