Emily Wright The Forbidden Fling

Rule #1: After a breakup, avoid your ex. Rule #2: Absolutely, under no circumstances, kiss her mum. Faye manages to break both rules before her wellness retreat at Sandy Springs has even officially begun. What was meant to be a fresh start after an emergency operation - three weeks of yoga, birdwatching, and emotional detoxing on a sun-kissed Portuguese island - quickly turns into something far less wholesome. Stranded at the retreat with her ex, Faye discovers that running away is impossible. And then there's Diana. Elegant. Composed. Miles out of her league. Heartbreak waiting to happen. Diana arrives at Sandy Springs with one mission: repair her fragile relationship with her daughter. No drama. No distractions. Brilliant, disciplined, and in control, Diana has academic accolades and a career people only dream of. But one night at the bar-and one impulsive kiss-shatters every carefully held illusion. Faye, with her warmth, passion, and curious charm cracks the edges of Diana's perfect world. With time running out and emotions surging, Faye and Diana must decide what's worse: breaking a daughter's trust or breaking their own hearts. On an island with nowhere to hide, some temptations aren't just hard to resist...they might be exactly what they've both been searching for.
