Checkmate

Kimberly Graham is a successful lawyer and a single mother to her eight-year-old son, Sam. The brown-skinned beauty had it hard growing up but had now reached a point in her life where she was satisfied with the way things were. For six years, it was only her and Sam until her ex, Colton Luther, one day showed up at her law firm asking for help.

The history between them was passion-filled and abusive. From Colton's numerous affairs to an escalated fight that landed her in the hospital, it's easy to see why she'd rather keep her distance. Although sharing a child makes the perfect bridge for him to slither is way back into her life, Kimberly was a different woman then, but after all these years on her own, her heart is well guarded.

That however won't be enough to stop him from trying, even if the prize is already claimed by another.
