When We Kissed

A forbidden summer romance. An age gap that should have kept them apart. A kiss that changed everything.

Kaya wanted nothing more than three carefree weeks of vacation with her friends. Love wasn't on the itinerary—especially not with John, the dangerously charming college player who happens to be thirteen years younger. But the moment their lips touched, she knew she was in trouble. What began as a harmless flirtation ignited into something far deeper, and far more dangerous, than she ever expected.

John thought he had his life figured out: no attachments, no commitments, no heartbreak. Until Kaya. With her irresistible laugh, fearless spirit, and the kiss that electrified him to his core, she slipped past his walls and stole his heart. Now, walking away isn't an option.

But age isn't their only obstacle. Kaya's past is full of secrets powerful enough to destroy their present—and their future. What started as a summer fling soon turns into a fight for love against scandal, heartbreak, and the ghosts she tried to leave behind.
