After a heart-wrenching breakup, Carrie's world shatters. Her boyfriend, who used to be the love of her life, "cheated on her", leaving her broken and questioning everything. What she didn't expect was the man who would be there to pick up the pieces: Ares.
He's her best friend, her confidant, and-oh, yeah-her ex's older brother-the one who's always been off-limits. But Ares always had a way of making her feel things the same way her ex did. With the lines between friendship and something much more dangerous starting to blur, Carrie finds herself in uncharted territory.
Ares has always been there to protect her, but lately, his touch lingers a little too long. His smiles seem to hold secrets, and his words are more intense. As the heat between them rises, Mia can't ignore the undeniable pull of another man who knows her better than anyone else and who's been waiting in the shadows for far too long.
Passion. Temptation. Betrayal. Olivia's about to find out just how far she'll go for the man who's always been right under her nose-and whether loving him could destroy everything she's worked so hard to rebuild.
