The Wrong Man At The Right Time
For four long years, Tessa Blake stood in the shadows of the spotlight, patching up bruises and broken hearts behind the scenes of Nathan Cross-the college's golden quarterback and her longtime best friend. She was the nurse, the tutor, the emotional crutch. The girl who stayed. Through every injury, every heartbreak, and every drunken night he stumbled into another girl's arms, Tessa stayed. Not because she had to. But because she loved him. But loving Nathan was a one-way street paved with silence, sacrifice... and pain. Until the night she met his father. Dorian Cross was everything Nathan wasn't-older, powerful, emotionally present, and terrifyingly aware of Tessa in all the ways his son never was. What began as comfort turned into chemistry. What was meant to be wrong... started to feel like the only right thing. Suddenly, Tessa isn't invisible anymore. She's the center of a storm. Now Nathan is looking at her differently. Now he's touching her like he finally sees her. But it's too late. Tessa's already tasted something forbidden-something that ignites her in ways Nathan never could. When hearts collide across generations and secrets burn beneath the skin, Tessa will have to decide... Does she want the boy who never chose her-or the man who never hesitated to?
