Not So Simple #3
A Simple Distraction
Bradley Walsh has everything—money, charm, and a last name that opens every door in Chicago. As the golden heir to the Walsh & Wilde empire, he’s used to getting what he wants…except when it comes to love.
Kenzo Carter-Volsky lives for discipline. A rising pro hockey star with a career on the line, he’s spent years building defenses no one gets past—and he plans to keep it that way.
But now temptation lives next door.
From the moment Bradley meets his new neighbor, he knows he’s in trouble. Kenzo is exactly the kind of man Bradley falls gorgeous, complicated, and impossible to ignore. And Bradley does what he always does—falls fast for the one he can’t have.
Kenzo has never let anyone close enough to break through his walls. He can’t afford distractions, and he definitely can’t afford the beautiful, charismatic heir who keeps showing up on the other side of the terrace with a smile that feels like a challenge. But stolen glances turn into lingering conversations and temptation this close is harder to resist than either of them expected.
Because falling is easy.
Letting someone in is harder.
And some people are impossible to keep out.
A high heat MM romance about temptation next door, vulnerability, found family, and choosing love even when it feels like the most dangerous play of all.
