About this ebook

She’s my best friend’s younger sister—completely off-limits and the one woman I can’t stop thinking about.

I’ve spent years pretending the sparks between us don’t exist. Keeping my distance. Ignoring the way she gets under my skin like no one else ever has. But when we’re forced to work together, avoiding her becomes impossible.

The more time we spend together, the harder it is to remember why this is such a bad idea.

She’s smart, stubborn, and way too easy to want. And the chemistry between us? Out of control.

Now every touch feels dangerous. Every stolen moment risks everything.

Because if her brothers find out what’s going on between us, I won’t just lose my job—I could lose the only family I’ve ever really had.

The problem is…I’m not sure staying away from her is possible anymore.

A heartfelt and steamy small-town romance where forbidden attraction, stolen moments, and impossible choices force two hearts to risk everything for a love they were never supposed to have.

Forbidden Dreams is book 6 in The Sterling Brothers Series but can be read as a standalone.

A perfect ending to the series! The one and only Sterling daughter finally has her story and it was worth the wait. When Aspen gets the chance to prove to her family that she knows what she is doing, it came with having to work with Cooper. Together they are not that thrilled, but to prove to everyone they agreed and what happens next was an enjoyable brothers best friend romance story that did not disappoint. I enjoyed how their storyline played out with all the drama, family and heat.

I was hooked right from the start with this forbidden relationship; brother's best friend, romance. Forbidden Dreams is the sixth book in the fantastic Sterling Brothers series and it is my favourite. Ms.Coll gives us a story filled with drama, angst, chemistry, and a love that develops from two people who go from enemies to lovers. I was excited to see Aspen's book was the next release in this series and I was not disappointed. I knew her story was going to bring out so many emotions in me.

More Sterling Brothers, forbidden love, and forced proximity — what more could you want? Lea always delivers with her books, and once you start, there’s no escaping. Cooper and Aspen’s story is heartfelt, emotional, and completely captivating. The forbidden element adds so much tension and excitement as they sneak around and keep their relationship hidden from her brothers. It’s all fun and games at first… until real feelings start to take hold. But Cooper’s difficult upbringing leaves him bel
