Leo Devereux, the powerful CEO of Devereux Real Estate, Architecture & Design, isn’t new to whirlwind flings that are hot, intense, and over before the sheets cool. However, one night left a mark. One gray-eyed stranger, one unforgettable connection... and then gone by morning. No name, no note. Just a memory Leo can’t shake.

Jason Dupree never expected a one-night stand to follow him across continents. His friends thought it was hilarious to hire an escort for his birthday and going-away gift, a wild send-off before grad school in Singapore. He imagined it would be fun and drunken, with no strings attached. It was definitely not the start of something that would linger for years.

Six years later, Jason is back in Valleywood with a degree, accolades, and two clever, chaotic kids in tow. He has just landed a job at DRA&D and hopes to advance in his career. What he doesn’t see coming? Running into the man who, unknowingly, fathered his children.

When Leo and Jason lock eyes again, the chemistry snaps back into place: instant, charged, and impossible to ignore. Both try to downplay it. However, when Leo makes a surprising request, Jason, a single father, agrees. What begins as a slow burn quickly turns into something neither of them can control: raw, real, and hard to walk away from.

But Leo is keeping a secret. One that could shake everything they are trying to build. If it comes out, it might tear them apart... or finally give them the family they never knew they were searching for.

Taming Leo is part of Valleywood Season three and can be read as a standalone. 94K words of love.
