I never imagined a single drink could change everything.
The night before my mother's wedding, I found myself at a bar, seeking refuge from her relentless questions about my love life. That's when I met him—Ares, a mysterious older man with captivating eyes and a charm that made my heart race. Our connection was instant, leading to a night of passion I couldn't forget.
Morning light brought a shocking revelation. Ares wasn't just any man; he was my mother's fiancé's brother, soon to be my step-uncle. The scandal of our encounter hung heavily between us, turning what was a fleeting romance into something forbidden and thrillingly dangerous.
As the wedding draws near, I am torn between the undeniable chemistry I share with Ares and the need to maintain peace for my mother's happiness. Navigating the chaos of wedding preparations while hiding our secret becomes a delicate dance of desire and duty.
With every glance, every stolen moment, the stakes rise. I must choose: follow my heart and risk everything, or bury my feelings and protect the family that means the world to me.
