Emil: MM Daddy Hurt/Comfort Romance (Almstead Island: Newcomer's Club Book 3)

Anders has spent years being the reliable one, the man who shows his love through quiet, practical acts of service rather than grand gestures. But when his long-term boyfriend discards him after a bitter betrayal, Anders finds his reputation and career under fire. His ex is not just walking away; he is actively trying to frame Anders for financial theft, leaving him isolated and desperate on the shores of Almstead Island. Enter Emil, his new boss, a man of steady strength and unexpected warmth. While the world sees only a professional hierarchy, Emil sees the man beneath the exhaustion. He recognizes the hurt Anders has been carrying and decides that he will be the one to provide the safety and care Anders has been denied for so long. As the threat of the frame-up looms, their relationship shifts from the professional to the deeply personal. This is a story of healing, resilience, and the profound comfort of finding a partner who finally puts you first. Emil offers a sanctuary where Anders can let his guard down and rediscover his worth. It is a tender, slow-burning romance that proves sometimes the most healing love comes from the person who sees your value when everyone else looks away.
