Anna Mae has the body men crave, the money women envy, and the freedom she fought her whole life to earn. Inside Club Vortex, she's the undefeated queen of the stage-luxury, power, and independence wrapped in heels and confidence. She has everything she ever dreamed of... except the one thing she's terrified to chase: Real love. Growing up without stability taught Anna's one rule-
men always take more than they give.
So she keeps her heart locked tight, giving men what they want on the outside while never letting anyone close enough to hurt her again. But when Malik, the boy she once loved from afar, steps back into her life-no longer a shy kid, but a feared, respected drug dealer with his own demons-Anna's carefully controlled world begins to shake. He sees past the stage lights.
Past the attitude.
Past the armor she built to survive. And that scares her more than any danger outside the club. Malik wants a second chance.
Anna wants to believe him.
But their lives don't match-he's running the streets, and she's dancing under them. Trust was never part of her survival plan, and love was never in his job description. Still, the pull between them is undeniable... until enemies, jealousy, and old trauma threaten to tear everything apart. Can a stripper who trusts no one love a man the streets are trying to kill?
Can two broken paths collide without destroying each other?
Or will Anna push away the only man who ever reached for her heart? In a world of money, secrets, sex, and violence, Anna must choose:
stay safe behind her walls... or risk everything for a love she never believed would come true.
