Jackson thought his biggest challenge in college would be balancing classes, late nights, and his relationship with Taylor. But everything changes the night he notices Carol, Taylor's mother, silently watching from the shadows as he makes love to her daughter.
Carol isn't the confident woman she once was. Years of fading beauty, extra weight, and quiet loneliness have left her guarded and insecure. But beneath that fragile exterior burns a longing she can't control... and Jackson can feel it every time their eyes meet.
He knows it's wrong. She's older, forbidden, and completely off-limits. Yet the memory of her gaze haunts him, igniting a hunger he can't suppress. When Jackson finally confronts Carol, the tension between them threatens to break, and once that line is crossed, there's no going back.
