As a personal trainer and gym owner in Atlanta's West End, her focus is on her grind-not on smooth-talking men with dark pasts and too much swagger. So when Dave Brewster strolls into her world-tatted up, freshly legit, and fine as hell-she's not impressed. Especially not after their first run-in leaves her tempted and annoyed. But Dave isn't just any man. He's patience wrapped in heat. Danger hiding behind slow smiles. And he's not backing down-especially when he finds out her best friend is dating his.

Just as they're learning to trust what's real, Dave's past comes knocking... and it's not leaving quietly. In a city built on hustle and scars, can love survive the heat? Or will the fire burn them both down first?

Because the closer Kane gets to solving his cases... the closer he gets to Melody. In a city ruled by money, violence, and betrayal, love could be the deadliest mistake of all.
