About this ebook

Seven years ago, Hercules Lord was everything to me—my first love, my greatest temptation, and my biggest heartbreak. One stolen night in Boston, we crossed a line that couldn’t be undone. And then? He disappeared.


Now, fate has thrown us together again. At my best friend’s engagement party, of all places. And just when I think I’ve wrapped my head around seeing him again, I find out he’s the best man. My partner for every wedding event. My forced proximity nightmare.


He’s impossibly more magnetic than I remember—bigger, bolder, and even more off-limits than before. Our families still hate each other. The past still lingers between us, unspoken. And yet, every moment we’re together, the pull between us grows stronger, rekindling something I thought I buried long ago.


I know better than to fall for him again. But tell that to my heart.


Crossing the Line, the first book of The Lord Brothers of Manhattan series of standalone books is a heart-stopping second-chance romance filled with deep emotions, undeniable chemistry, and the kind of love that defies the odds. If you crave passionate tension, unforgettable romance, and all the feels, this book is for you.

I loved this book! Crossing the line was such a sweet and authentic love story between two characters forbidden from being friends, let alone lovers, due to their feuding families. Paisley and Hercules, despite being opposites on paper, find that they have a sizzling mutual attraction towards each other, whether their families like it or not, and can't help but give in to their temptations for each other. A great read with a steady plot and a steamy romance! - I received this book as an arc reader.

I really enjoyed this story about Paige and Hercules. Their families were rivals but they had an attraction to each other that neither could deny. This billionaire love story was sweet and definitely steamy. I really liked both Paige and Hercules and can't wait to read more of the author's books. This is an absolute recommend from me. I love forbidden romances and especially enemies to lovers. Kind of reminds me of Romeo and Juliet but without the tragic ending. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

The family feud between the Lord’s and the Groves is quite antagonist and ongoing. Will Hercules, a Lord and Paisley Grove cross the line with their relationship? Perhaps this line has already been crossed. Good steamy story with strong and defined characters and great world building. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
