Stella is a forbidden fruit that Mauro is not allowed to try. Not only because she was not promised to him, but also because she is his half-sister. She was his annoying shadow, the little girl he had to protect and nurse. She's all grown up now, and he can't stop noticing it. Being locked in a room with her might be the ultimate test of his self-control... Mauro had always been Stella's protector and ally until she began to see him as something more. Afraid of his reaction, she hides her attraction. But can she continue to do this when they are locked in a small room all alone? 18+Translation by the Cora Reilly group: The book’s text has been translated from the original language using an artificial intelligence system.
