A year after your mother's funeral, a drunk, chance meeting in a dark club leads to a night that shatters every boundary between you. Now, the stubborn, quiet man you've known for years has to face the one thing he can't repair: the devastating attraction he feels for you as your stepfather.

Julien has always been the steady, practical presence in your life. The man who fixes things, who doesn't talk much but shows up when it matters. He married your mother Lena four years ago, and he loved her deeply. But grief has a way of breaking even the strongest foundations, and one reckless night has turned everything you thought you knew about him (and yourself) upside down.

Now there's no going back. The guilt, the want, the impossibility of it all...he's drowning in it. And the worst part? He's not sure he wants to stop.
