Book 2 of: The Journey Series
At twenty-eight, Angel Zayas-Smith steps into the role of CEO at Zayas Enterprises with the kind of focus that makes silence feel deliberate.
Jadziel Zayas was fire...brilliant, intense, unforgettable.
Angel is steel. Quiet. Controlled.
But strength, he's learning, doesn't always come from boardrooms or clean contracts. Sometimes it comes from facing what you broke.
From Isaack, his father and the heart behind Per Ardua, Angel learned how to care without rushing.
From Jadziel, his CEO father, he learned how to lead. How to hold a room. How to survive in places that don't wait for softness.
From his younger brother, Isadiel, Angel sees something, a reminder of family. Of what still feels real.
Judge Rex, his old stuffed dinosaur, still sits on a shelf in his bedroom. Not for show. Just because it's his. A piece of who he was before things got complicated.
So when his ex-best friend Thomas (Tommy) Hardling shows up again after seven years, the shift isn't dramatic.
It's quiet, It's slow.
And it starts to crack the armor Angel thought would hold.
