Ruin Me Sweetly: A Rockstar Grumpy Sunshine Forced Proximity Romance

By: Millie Lake

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

I went to get a necklace.
I left with his heart in my hands.

I shouldn’t have been at Holden Hawke’s lake house that night.

But there I was—dripping wet from the storm, being devoured by the hungry gaze of rock’s most notorious recluse.

He was supposed to be a legend.
A ghost.
The man who walked off stage mid-concert and vanished from the spotlight.

Not my brooding, tattooed fantasy with storm-cloud eyes and hands that could ruin me with a single touch.

“Go,” he ordered, his voice rough as gravel. “Before I do something we’ll both regret.”

But I saw through his walls. Past the anger and scars. To the broken artist desperate to create again.

One night became two.
Two became a week.
His bed became my sanctuary.
My body became his canvas.

I was never supposed to be his muse.
His salvation.
The melody he couldn’t get out of his head.

He was never supposed to make me feel seen.
Desired.
Like my curves were made for his calloused hands to worship.

“You already ruined me,” he confessed, his lips against my skin. “Sweetly. Completely. The moment you walked into my life.”

But when his vindictive half-brother threatened to tear us apart, we faced the ultimate choice—run from the demons of our past, or fight for a future neither of us believed we deserved.

Some men aren’t meant to be saved.
Some love stories aren’t meant to be pretty.
Some ruins are worth everything.

A scorching, emotional romance featuring a possessive, tortured hero and the curvy, strong-willed woman who brings him to his knees. Expect forced proximity, creative passion turned physical, and the kind of all-consuming love that destroys before it heals. This standalone delivers angst, steam, and a guaranteed happily ever after that will leave you breathless.
