Peaceful would be the perfect word for Mila to describe where she was in life. She was a single mother, raising her daughter alone-which wasn't anything new, anyway-but she'd escaped. She'd escaped the life she was born into and created a new found family that didn't exude toxicity. But as her best friend never let her forget, the next addition to her life had to be...love.

Rico Dankworth walked away from the streets with blood on his hands and a vow in his heart-never go back. Now two years out the pen, he's running a mechanic shop, staying low, and rebuilding a life brick by brick. But the ghosts of his past still whisper, and temptation never knocks-it kicks the door in. Tamira Caldwell has the perfect recipe for success: a booming soul food restaurant, a solid circle, and a smile that hides the scars left by a manipulative ex who broke more than just her heart. Love? She's not checking for it. Not until Rico crashes into her world with tattoos, trauma, and a touch that threatens to unravel every wall she's built. Set in the heart of Baywood, Georgia, this is a story of redemption, real love, and the power of choosing yourself even when your past won't let go. Sometimes healing looks like greasy hands and soul food. And sometimes... it sounds like "I see you" from the one person who means it.
