Under My StepDaddy's Roof

Synopsis

“You want to come, don’t you?” he rasped. “Even when you’re jealous. Even when you hate me for being your stepdad.” Amelia doesn’t meet Dominic the way people are supposed to meet their stepfathers. There is no warning, no preparation, no space to breathe. One moment she’s stepping into her childhood apartment, the next she’s being introduced to a man her mother married in secret. Dominic is calm, observant, devastatingly composed, and from the very first look, something in the room shifts. What begins as unease turns into awareness. Stolen glances that linger too long. Conversations that feel charged instead of polite. Every shared silence presses closer than words ever could. Amelia tells herself it’s normal, curiosity. Anything but what it really is. Then the line breaks quietly. A touch held a second too long. An apology that sounds like a confession. A kiss that happens before either of them can stop it. Desire collides with guilt, and once it does, there’s no putting it back where it belongs. Their connection is consuming, and dangerously rooted in want rather than fantasy. Dominic is not just temptation. There's something more. And Amelia finds herself craving him, not only with her body, but with parts of herself she didn’t know were empty. They know it’s forbidden. They know it will ruin everything if discovered. But knowing doesn’t stop them. It is their LITTLE SECRET.
