Now, years later, Alaia returns to the Outer Banks as the CEO of her late father's company. She is powerful, polished, and determined to keep her past exactly where it belongs. But Rafe isn't the same broken boy she left behind. He's gotten clean, taken control of his life, and has become the man she always believed he could be. And he's been waiting for her. What starts as unfinished business becomes something far more dangerous when a collision of old wounds and new desire, of the people they were and the people they've become. Rafe swears he won't make the same mistake twice, but Alaia Sinclair has always been his addiction, and some things run too deep to ever truly break. A dark romance about second chances, old wounds, and the fine line between devotion and obsession.

Brooke Routledge has always been told to act upon risk. She regrets it all. The love, the vulnerability, the true form that she provided to him. It wasn't worth it, and the cruelest part was the act of throwing it back into her face. She doesn't think he ever loved her. How could you? It runs so much deeper than that. Neither of them knew what they were doing, how they were feeling, and how to fix it all-though, under everything, they wanted to fix it. Risk. It's what destroyed Brooke Routledge.

Rafe Cameron was the last person she should have fallen for -her best friend's brother, a Kook with too many demons to count. He drank to forget, fought to feel, and spiraled until there was nothing left of him but the chaos he created. But with her, he was different. She was the only one who could quiet the storm in his head, the only thing that made him feel something real. She should have walked away. He should have let her go. Instead, they became each other's favorite sin -an addiction neither of them could escape. 𝓗𝓮 𝓱𝓾𝓻𝓽 𝓶𝓮 𝓫𝓾𝓽 𝓲𝓽 𝓯𝓮𝓵𝓽 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓽𝓻𝓾𝓮 𝓵𝓸𝓿𝓮~
