The No-Pressure Pact

By: Maria Rigou

A flirty vacation fling was never part of the itinerary...

When Manuela Torres joins her friend's wedding trip through Switzerland, she’s expecting awkward group dinners, too many couples, and the occasional stunning view—not late-night laughter and stolen glances with the one guy who’s just as out of place as she is.

Connor Paul has been running on empty for too long. The last thing he needs is more emotional complication. But Manuela is funny, grounded, and quietly devastating—being around her feels like breathing again.

After an unexpected night stranded together, they give in to the pull between them. One kiss turns into a hookup. A hookup turns into a pact: no strings, no pressure, just fun while the trip lasts.

But what happens when temporary starts to feel like home?
