Sometimes life hands you a fork in the road. Mine feels more like a tidal wave crashing down on me, just as I’m about to turn thirty. Until now, I’ve been trying to live up to my mother’s impossible standards while drowning in deadlines, but I’ve finally had enough.

Bluebell Bay is my escape plan. It’s a chance to figure out what I want from life, a place I don’t have to pretend. Two weeks to relax and decide on my next steps.

Three masked men, one game of chase, and a night that awakens some things inside me I didn’t know I’d buried—desire, freedom, and the need for something real. These strangers make me feel powerful, worshipped, and sexy.

But when the masks come off, so does the illusion that this was just for fun. These men see me, flaws and all. They’re not just offering me pleasure; they’re offering something real.

I know I can’t have them—that life is only a fantasy. They’re too young and don’t need my drama added to their lives. But then they make an offer too good to refuse… Can I have everything I’ve ever wanted?

(view spoiler)[ I never though of that. Damn I hope she doesnt think that, but it would make sense due to her past. (hide spoiler)]

Finished (view spoiler)[ I liked this one, and like that they gave her time to find herself while supporting her. (hide spoiler)]
