"Sometimes what you need isn't what you get,
                                        it's what you already have."

                                          〰️〰️〰️

Being stuck in a people-pleasing routine is what Bayla Barclay knows best. She's got every aspect of her strained relationship down to a science. She'll wear herself away to nothing without a second thought for whoever needs it. It's what she's best at.

But maybe what you're best at isn't always what's best for you. Maybe what you need isn't what you get; it's what you already have. 

That's the difference between getting and needing.

46 parts Ongoing Mature
"You've become so damaged that when someone tries to give you what you deserve, you have no idea how to respond." He says taking a step closer to me. I frown. "So, it's my fault? That I'm to blame for being damaged?" "No, it's not your fault at all, but it is your fault for believing you don't deserve better. That you don't deserve to be happy." Nathan looks away from my eyes, inhaling. "Maybe the little things that you consider your weakness are actually the things that people treasure most about you. Maybe you hate that you care too much...or that you wear your heart on your sleeve. But seriously, some people think that's the best damn thing about you. We all have different little things that make up who we are, we don't need to change those things, but we can choose who we share them with." "What are you saying?" Now so close to me, he places his palm on my cheek, and whispers. "You're treasure, Madison...I hope you realize that." ________ Nathan Lane a Billionaire heartthrob who has everything in his life. Money, fame and power. Except he keeps some secrets of his own. This persona he puts on for the world to see is not what he truly wants.

Now she has to pick herself up from the ashes, but she doesn't believe she deserves forgiveness. She doesn't know what to do, until she meets Nathan Lane in a very not so sober way. But both of them don't know that they share a similar past. The Universe played it's game and tied them together. Maybe they are destined to be together... Who knows? Read more to find out what happens in Another Man's Treasure. _________ This book contains Mature content so please be 18+. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
