MM Romance Slow Burn Mystery Heat 18+ Content

When Klim, a 27-year-old world-class swimmer and tall, brooding brunette, wins a major competition in a dazzling Adriatic coastal city, his teammates challenge him to a bet that seems harmless enough. All he has to do is kiss a lifeguard. Easy, right?

After all, Klim is publicly known as gay—a fact that helps him keep the female fan frenzy at bay. But the truth is... he’s straight. Or at least, he always thought he was. But the prize for winning the bet is too good to pass up: a coveted invitation to the party of the year at the elite Oberg Hotel, where global sports stars and agents gather and connections are everything. A kiss for a shot at a future? It sounds simple.

Until he sees him.

Henry—25, Nordic blond, mesmerizing violet-gray eyes—is the lifeguard in question. Calm. Distant. Punctual to the second. As if he stepped out of another time or place. Klim expects to play a role, to flirt a little, to win the dare and walk away. But from the moment their eyes meet, something shifts.

What was supposed to be a joke becomes the spark that ignites an emotional journey neither of them saw coming.

Klim starts to question everything: his attraction, his identity, and the strange, powerful connection he feels with Henry. Who is this man with the unreadable gaze and quiet intensity? Why does Klim feel like they’ve met before… somewhere beyond memory?

As tensions rise and hidden truths begin to surface, Klim is pulled deeper into a web of emotions, secrets, and unexpected passion. Henry isn’t just a lifeguard. He’s a mystery. And behind his perfect timing and calm demeanor lies something that could change Klim’s life forever.
