After Hours Rendezvous

Georgia has rules: no bosses, no drama, no falling for the man upstairs.

Georgia opened Afternoon Delight, a sex-positive adult toy boutique, to be her own boss, answer to no one, and never let a man derail her again. What she didn’t plan on was Bruno — the broad-shouldered security guard who turns out to live in the flat directly above her shop, the one who has been distracting her from the moment they met.

Bruno is stretched thin. He works nights, runs a gym on fumes, and has been quietly keeping his family afloat since his brother’s life imploded. He has no business wanting more than the occasional after-hours visit with the woman downstairs — but Georgia, with her razor wit and her warm, unapologetic heart, is the one thing in his life that feels like breathing room.

Then a frightening medical diagnosis forces Georgia to let people in — including Bruno, who shows up with Tylenol and questions he has no right to ask, and stays far longer than either of them intended. Through slow-burn texts, waffles that taste better than any fancy dinner, and the kind of honesty that only happens in the dark, two fiercely independent people start to wonder if needing someone could feel less like surrender and more like coming home.

After Hours Rendezvous is a steamy, heartfelt contemporary romance set in Victoria, BC, featuring a sex-positive heroine, a quietly devoted hero, found family, and a happily ever after worth every ache along the way. It's also a sexy stand-alone prequel to Afternoon Delight.
