Everyone knows the rules: Don't sleep with your roommate. Especially not when he's your best friend's older brother. But Caleb isn't just any roommate. He's a brooding artist with stormy eyes and talented hands that make me forget every single rule. Our arrangement is simple—strictly physical, no strings attached. We keep our messy emotions out of it. But late nights on the couch and whispered secrets in the dark blur the lines we swore we wouldn't cross. He's a masterpiece of contradictions, and I'm falling for the one man I can't have. When my past threatens to spill into my present, Caleb becomes my unlikely protector. But is his fierce loyalty just a sense of duty, or could he feel the same burning need that I do? This thing between us is supposed to be only physical. But my heart didn't get the memo.
