Broken by His Unyielding Need
(2026)(Book 18 in the Off-Limits Temptations series)
A novel by Jess Winters
When the storm hits, so does the heart
and nothing Ivy built stays neat for long.
She mends hooves, manages rules, and keeps her life stitched into perfect order.
Elias returns with dirt on his hands, secrets in his pockets, and a past he never stopped running from.
They meet in rain and hay.
Hands brush over a trembling foal.
Sparks don’t fade
they scorch straight through the quiet.
The kiss is slow.
The want is urgent.
And the danger comes fast.
Threats arrive in paper and shadow
forged invoices, sabotaged fences,
a handwritten warning: Next time it won’t be the fence.
The bank’s clock ticksseventy-two brutal hours.
The town smells blood.
Gossip sharpens into knives.
He asks her to sign.
She demands terms.
Boundaries drafted in ink
desire that refuses to wait.
They stitch ledgers and wounds.
They build a fragile truce on hay, heat, and honesty.
But secrets surface.
Men with teeth circle.
And resisting him becomes its own kind of pain.
He offers his hands.
She offers her conditions.
Together they risk everythingnot just safety, but the truth burning between them.
Stay for the stitches. Stay for the reckoning.
