One kiss ruined everything. Now we act like we hate each other. The only problem? She still watches me like I'm hers.

Emma Parker enjoys helping others, making her role as an ER nurse a perfect fit. She loves her job. Yet the relentless pace and high stakes often leave her stressed, especially when a life slips through her fingers and the toll of those moments weigh heavily on her. Her daughter is her world and Bellamy's cheerful presence always lifts her spirits. However, when Bellamy is with her other mother, Emma decides to turn to the gym for solace. Soon Emma learns that the women's only gym she's decided on is owned by someone who despises her for her ways in highschool, Ramona Rodriguez.

Bellamy ain't ask for the name Blick, but once Miami saw what he could do with fire in his hand, his real name stopped mattering to everybody but the people closest to him. On the outside, Blick is quiet, feared, respected, and untouchable, the type of man folks lower their voice around before he even steps in the room. But nobody knows that underneath all that control is a secret from middle school that still sits on his chest like a loaded gun, waiting on the wrong person to pull the trigger. Nasir Brooks is spoiled, pretty, reckless, and mouthy enough to make anybody lose their mind, but Blick is the first person who refuses to let him run wild just because he's cute. Nasir hates that Blick can check him with one look, and Blick hates how fast that bratty boy starts getting under his skin, but the deeper they fall, the closer Bellamy's past gets to dragging him back under. Because Nasir loves loud, jealous, and without shame, but Bellamy knows love can switch up real quick when the truth finally steps into the room.

De'Vorius, a man who's independence comes from his ability to observe silently, thinking ahead quickly and manipulate situations in his favor, ends up faltering for someone, love blocking his judgment until he and his lover can come to terms with the things they're feeling. Emurion, the type of person who's everywhere, knows anyone, good or bad, with a short temper and liking for bloodshed and revenge, ends up finding attraction in another, someone he can't face at the arrival of these new feelings.

Reread the title. It explains it all.
