The Beekeeper: A Friends to Lovers Single Dad Romance

Blaze Stevens knows how to play a part.

Hollywood bad boy. Heartbreaker. Walking scandal. But there's one role he never saw coming: father to the six-year-old daughter he never knew he had. And this time, getting it right matters more than his reputation.

When a custody battle and paparazzi send them hiding in a quiet Maine town, the last person Blaze expects to trust is Harper Hamilton. The beautiful beekeeper once knew his secrets before he was ready to share them, and she still sees through every role he plays.

Harper has no intention of falling for her old crush-turned-celebrity. She only gives Blaze and his daughter a place to stay because they need somewhere safe, and because her bees bring a frightened little girl back to herself. If Blaze can help save Harper's honey business from an online smear campaign? Even better.

Blaze tells himself their arrangement is temporary. But every shared meal, midnight confession, and stolen touch makes leaving harder. Soon, he's not imagining his next escape. He's imagining Harper. His daughter. A family. A home.

But Blaze knows what happens when Hollywood turns its spotlight on something he loves. Protecting Harper might mean walking away from the first place he's ever wanted to stay.

Will Blaze run again, or finally fight for the life he wants?
