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. They should've stayed in their lanes. But sweat turns to touches, and tension turns to craving. 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?
