He’s the billionaire I was never supposed to love… Too bad my heart has other plans.
I’ve had a secret crush on Hercules Lord since high school. He’s brilliant, gorgeous, rich—and completely off-limits. His family and mine have been rivals for generations, making any romantic entanglement strictly forbidden.
But one unforgettable night changed everything.
Now, every encounter is charged with tension. We pretend nothing happened, clinging to the façade of friendship. Yet, the memory of that night—my first, his unforgettable—is impossible to ignore.
Our families would never approve. The Lords are old money; the Groves are new. The line between us isn’t just social—it’s etched in scandal and legacy.
But resisting our connection feels increasingly impossible.
If we give in, we risk everything. But if we don’t… we might lose the only thing that truly matters—a chance to find out if we were meant to be each other's happily ever after.
Crossing the Line is a forbidden billionaire romance full of steam, heart, and second chances. First in the Lords of Manhattan series.
