Only For Daddy (Yes, Daddy #9)

He's been waiting three years. She's just now catching up.

Kieran Blairn has been watching Lola at Sunday dinners since a Christmas three years ago — and firmly, absolutely out of bounds. He's good at patience. He's also very good at not letting his face do anything when she walks into a room.

He built a reading corner in his apartment in one afternoon. He's not going to say why. He just had a feeling.

Lola has been doing an excellent job of not thinking about her best friend's older brother. Then she's twenty-four, standing on his porch, and she's the one who says the word first.

He goes very still. He asks her to say it again.

She does.

*Age-gap contemporary romance. Best friend's brother. A patient man with a set of rules. Three years of restraint released.*
