They built a life together. A family. A company. A future. But somewhere between boardroom meetings and bedtime stories, the spark faded. Sienna Brooks thought the life she worked so hard to build was enough. Until the husband she trusted found new excitement in someone younger, someone new-someone who wasn't her. Betrayed but not broken, Sienna won't fall apart. She'll rise. And when Miles Bennett, a quiet force from her past, reappears with eyes that never stopped seeing her, Sienna learns that sometimes, love doesn't shout-it waits. This is a story about heartbreak, healing, and falling in love again-this time, with someone who's been ready all along. (POV switches ahead-because both sides of the story matter, even if one's being a dumbass. You'll see.)

With every lingering glance, every teasing smirk, she pulls him deeper into a temptation he knows could ruin him. She isn't just off-limits, she's forbidden. But she knows exactly what she's doing, playing him like a fiddle, setting fire to the boundaries he's desperately trying to keep. He's a man who's always been in control. Until now. And in the wild, a cowboy always takes what he wants.

That she'd never be dragged into the darker parts of club life. He lied. The same night she catches him cheating, Remi is abducted by a rival MC-used, brutalized, and left to die as a message. But fate isn't done with her yet. She's rescued by the last person she ever expected: the president of a reformed club who's turned his back on the violence of the past. At his ranch-turned-sanctuary, surrounded by rescued animals and survivors, Remi begins to piece herself back together. But her past and her ex aren't done with her.

Remi's journey includes scenes of assault and survival. These events are portrayed with care, never glorified, and written to reflect the raw truth of what she endures.

Mia and Kade met in college. What started as something unexpected turned into everything. The kind of connection people don't believe in until it's already swallowed them whole. They got married. Young, fast, fully. Two years in, their life looked like a dream-intense, passionate, untouchable. They weren't just in love-they were each other's entire world. Until one night destroyed it all. One photo-doctored, planted, and completely false-landed in Kade's hands. Without asking a single question or giving Mia a chance to speak, he made a decision that would change everything. Convinced she had betrayed him, he threw her out of their home without explanation. But Mia never betrayed him. The evidence was a lie. The truth was something Kade never gave her the chance to say. And by the time he learns what really happened, it may be too late to fix what he destroyed. Because trust is easy to break. And not everything broken can be rebuilt.
