He's twenty-four years older.
She's the first thing that's made him feel alive in years.
Dale Jensen is a man of suits, silence, and secrets-respected in the boardroom, lonely in the kitchen. At fifty-seven, he's accepted a life of restraint and regret... until Melissa Reynolds crashes into it with her mismatched socks, offbeat humor, and the kind of honesty that strips a man bare.
She's twenty-three.
Too young. Too bright. Too everything he isn't.
But she sees him. The real him.
And when the walls fall-slowly, then all at once-neither of them is ready for how deep it goes.
This isn't a sugar daddy fantasy.
It's messier. Sharper. More than sugar.
A raw, redemptive, and deliciously intimate story about age gaps, emotional baggage, complicated pleasure-and the courage it takes to be fully seen.
