CLAIMING WHATS MINE

After five years away, Beauty Goddess Summers is back in town-and this time, she's all woman. Once just a bold little girl with a schoolyard crush, she's grown into a force to be reckoned with, determined to make good on a promise she made years ago.

she told Dave East she would be his girl one day. He laughed it off, seeing only a kid with big dreams. But now? She's no longer the scrawny girl he barely noticed-she's a stunning, confident woman, and she didn't come back to play games.

But claiming Dave won't be as easy as she thought. The streets have changed, people have changed, and so has he. Women who once had no competition now see her as a threat, and secrets she never expected start to surface. The closer she gets to Dave, the more she questions whether the man she's chased for years is really the dream she's built him up to be.

Because in a world where love and loyalty are tested at every turn, Beauty will have to decide-is he truly worth fighting for, or is she chasing a fantasy that was never meant to be?

Sometimes, the thing you've always wanted isn't what you need. And sometimes, what glitters isn't gold.
