Risky Moments With My Dad's Bestfriend
Brielle Quinn has always followed the rules—until her dreams start breaking them.
At twenty, she’s brilliant, ambitious, and haunted by forbidden fantasies of the one man she can never have: Desmond Blackwood, her father’s best friend. When a violent attack forces her into hiding, she’s placed under Desmond’s protection in a remote cabin far from the world they know.
What starts as tension quickly spirals into desire. One stolen kiss turns into sleepless nights, tangled sheets, and secrets they can’t bury. But Brielle isn’t just fighting her feelings—she’s the target of a dangerous vendetta tied to her father’s past.
As lies unravel and enemies close in, Brielle uncovers dark family secrets that threaten everything she thought she knew. And Desmond? He may be her greatest love… or the biggest lie of all.
Their love is forbidden. Their enemies are watching.
And the past won’t stay buried.
She was supposed to be safe with him.
She was never supposed to fall.

Chapter: 59Brielle's povI turned back and froze when I saw the school deer approaching me. It stepped lightly acrossthe grass, ears twitching, and looked straight at me. I bent down slowly and reached out myhand."Hey there, little one" I whispered.The deer sniffed my hand and then nudged my palm with its nose. I giggled, the sound escapingme before I could stop it."You are so soft" I said as it rubbed against my leg. Somehow it wascomforting, and I felt a little of the tension in my chest fade. I laughed softly as it licked my handand then trotted a few steps before circling back, letting me pet it for a little longer.I finally sat on a bench in the garden and opened my tray. I was eating slowly, trying to calm mynerves, when my phone buzzed. I pulled it out and saw our class group chat exploding."Did anyone see Desmond today?" Selma typed.swear I am gonna have him""He is so hot and his eyes are hypnotizing. II groaned

Chapter: 58Brielle's povI walked into school with my earbuds in and my hair all over the place because the morningbreeze refused to behave. I saw Selma leaning against her locker with two girls around her. Shehad her hand on her hip and her chin raised as if she owned the whole damn building. I wantedto walk past her but her voice was loud through the hall like some cheap speaker.“He is so hot and so handsome” she said while flipping her hair.I stopped walking because I already knew who she meant.“Desmond is perfect. I swear I am going to have him. I always get who I want” she said.My stomach twisted. I hated that it twisted but it did. I hated that her voice made my blood rush.I hated that she talked about him with that proud grin. I hated that she said she was going tohave him as if I did not know his mouth. I did not know his voice when he whispered. I did notknow his hands when he touched my waist. I stood there like a complete fool an

Chapter: 57Desmond's PovSweden could be cold enough to freeze a grown man, yet Brielle still managed to warm everycorner of my mind. It did not help that she looked like the sweetest thing I had ever seen. Iwanted to touch her. I wanted to wrap my arms around her and hold her close. I wanted to kissher until her lips turned soft and warm. I could not do any of that. I did not want to bring troubleto her or draw unwanted attention.I reached Sweden one day after she did. I barely slept. I spent three long weeks applying forjobs in the university. I focused on courses I knew she needed. Luck or fate placed me in thebiggest course she could not avoid. It was dangerous but It feltperfect.I loved looking at her. I always loved looking at her. Her mouth, her eyes, her small irritatedfrowns that still made my chest tighten. I forced myself to act normal. I forced myself to lookaway.I sent my first class report and heard fast heels behind me.

Chapter: 56Brielle's povIt had been three weeks since I started classes in Sweden and things were moving smootherthan I expected. I had settled into a rhythm that made me feel like I had been here for months. Iwalked into school with my hair tied up and my laptop tucked under my arm every day. Peopleknew my name now and some even stopped to greet me. I replied to the messages from myparents only when I felt strong enough because I had blocked their calls. It was easier that waybecause their voices always made me feel trapped. I had cut off Desmond completely because Ineeded to breathe. I needed to know who I was without him hovering over my life. He called andtexted every day at first but I ignored everything. I wanted freedom and quiet and my own mind.I was sitting in class waiting for my algorithm teacher to arrive when the door opened. Myteacher walked in with a tired smile and cleared his throat. The room grew quiet and I leanedback wi

Chapter: 54I lay on my bed with all the lights off because the night felt warmer when everything around mestayed quiet. The house had already gone still after the storm that blew through it earlier. Myfather had come home with so much anger that his footsteps shook the hallway floor. Heentered my room without knocking and told me that he would cut all my funds if I kept trying tochange my school. He pointed at my phone and told me that he had already seen everything onthe portal. I sat up slowly and watched him pace like he was trying to hold himself together.I told him that I had my own money because I started my business at fifteen and it was doingwell enough for me to stand on my own feet. His anger slipped into something softer and he satat the edge of my bed while his shoulders dropped. He begged me to rethink everythingbecause he said the world outside would swallow me whole. I watched him rub his face like hewanted to hide behind his han
