Sweet Temptation

Two hearts, torn between family and temptation. For Ellery Brooks and Beckham James, surrendering could lead to paradise-or ruin everything they hold dear.Ellery returns to Sweetbriar with plans to make her mark on the art community. Those plans do not include Beckham, her older brother's best friend-and the one man she loves but can never have. Beckham knows better than to try anything with Ellery. She is forbidden fruit, and the unwritten rule of friendship demands that he keep his hands to himself. He has spent the last ten years fighting to suppress his feelings while staying as far away from Ellery as possible. One brief encounter sparks a flame between the two childhood friends. Every look grows their attraction, and every touch weakens their resolve-until those fleeting, stolen moments tempt them to risk it all for a chance at forever. Consequences be damned.
