Luca Moretti didn’t expect much when he moved into the Whitmore estate—just a quiet room, a polished façade, and a future stepbrother who wouldn’t give him a second glance. But Graham Whitmore isn’t just older, engaged, and wildly off-limits—he’s a temptation in a tailored suit. With all sharp edges and smoldering restraint, he’s everything Luca should avoid. What begins as harmless teasing and late-night tension soon ignites into something hotter. Behind closed doors, Graham’s composure cracks, and Luca’s charm hits deeper than either of them anticipated. Now, with family expectations, carefully curated lives, and a very public engagement at stake, they’re playing with fire—and neither wants to put it out.
Graham’s life was on a predictable path: engaged to be married and eager to dive into a stable future. Little did he know that the arrival of Lica and his mother into his father’s estate would turn his world upside down. What started as the mundane routine of daily life quickly transformed into a web of tension and emotions.
As his new step-brother Lica settled in, Graham couldn’t shake the feelings that surfaced every time they interacted. Their exchanges were playful, filled with teasing remarks and lingering stares. Each moment in the house ignited a longing Graham had never experienced. With a shared jack-and-jill bathroom connecting their rooms, the boundaries of brotherly love began to blur, leading them into a territory neither expected.
After a wild evening social event, marked by Father, and Son arguments and Fiancé breakup, Graham and Lica faced an undeniable reality. Under the weight of their thoughts, they woke to a new morning filled with uncertainty and intrigue. The attraction they felt was electric, making it impossible to ignore. As they sat on the edge of Graham’s bed, both aware that their connection had transformed, a lot of explaining would indeed be needed. Would they risk everything for a chance at love, despite the sudden complexity of their situation?
