Last Chance at Love
Sasha Banks thought she had buried the past. Along with the silence, the heartbreak, and the man who broke her in ways she never admitted out loud. But when she's forced back into the same orbit as Cassius Henderson, the world knows him as a chart-topping rapper. She remembers the man behind the headlines, the one she loved, the one she lost. Guarded and grown, Sasha has no intention of reopening old wounds, but some truths don't stay buried. And neither do feelings. Cassius has spent years building a career most would envy, but success can't quiet the regret that lives in the spaces Sasha used to fill. The music, the money, the noise-they've all distracted him from what really haunts him: the words he never said and the woman he never stopped loving. As the two find themselves in shared spaces and shared memories, Last Chance at Love asks what happens when time runs out on avoidance. Sometime love does not fade. It waits. _______________ Disclaimer: This is my first book. I hope you like it!! Please Comment and Like!!
