A Steamy Older Man Younger Woman Romance
He’s twenty-two years older, her auditor, and the last man she should want.
Maya Reeves has spent six months proving herself in a department that doesn’t take her seriously. When a compliance audit flags her expense reports, she’s assigned to work full-time with David Ashford, a senior officer known for his precision, his silence, and his complete lack of patience for excuses. Two weeks. A windowless office. Four feet of space between their desks.
She notices the fit of his suit. He notices she’s left-handed. Neither of them acknowledges what’s building in the silence.
David knows the rules. Relationships between auditors and the people they review are prohibited. The age gap alone would raise questions. But Maya isn’t asking for his protection. She’s asking him to stop pretending the tension doesn’t exist. And the longer they’re locked in that room together, the harder it becomes to remember why walking away was supposed to be the right thing.
Some lines aren’t meant to be crossed. Others are worth the risk.
