The Detectives Forbidden Temptation

Being promoted to detective, I expected my schedule would become more chaotic. I live for adrenaline, so it was a perk that I was all for. When a large case ends up on my desk, I throw all my time at it. I finally get the break I’ve been waiting for, but it comes with a challenge of epic proportions that I’m not prepared for in the slightest. He’s a six foot something, pure muscle, and all attitude, eighteen-year-old, All-Star Quarterback who happens to still be a senior in high school. Despite my best efforts to keep things platonic and friendly, my attraction to him only grows. Xavier belongs to me. So, when his life implodes, I won’t let him fight the battle alone. He’s not the only one in a war, though. When I realize mine could touch him, all bets are off, and I do something I never thought I’d ever do. I hope I’ll survive long enough to make sure he comes out of this unscathed.
