Ready or Not: A spicy forbidden short

by Cherry Cummings

There’s only one thing worse than wanting him… and that’s getting caught.

Jaz was supposed to keep her head down.
Finish the semester. Stay out of trouble.
Not fall into bed with the one man who should be completely off-limits.

But when her former stepdad shows up as her new professor—older, colder, and more aggravating than ever—old resentment burns into something far more dangerous. Especially when a call from home warns that her meddling mother is coming to town… and planning to crash at Jaz’s apartment.

Now hiding her biggest secret from the woman they both have reasons to avoid, Jaz finds herself living a lie with the one man she swore she’d never forgive.

The rules? Broken.
The timing? A disaster.
The risk? Higher than ever.

Because Dorian may no longer be her stepfather.
But he’s still the one man she was never supposed to want.

And definitely the one she should never touch.
