My'Elle never thought coming back home would reopen so many wounds-or reignite feelings she thought were long buried. What was supposed to be a short trip for her best friend's wedding turns into a storm she can't escape. The problem? The past she ran from is standing right in front of her, and he still makes her heart race like no time has passed.
Ja Savage is power, danger, and loyalty wrapped in one. As the oldest Savage brother, he runs his world with control and silence. But behind that nonchalant stare lies a man haunted by choices, torn between duty and desire. He made promises he can't keep-and fell for the one woman he was meant to stay away from.
When secrets resurface and loyalty is tested, My'Elle and Ja find themselves caught between what's right and what feels real. In a world where love can cost you everything, how do you let go of the one person who feels like home?
Lust, loyalty, and lies collide in this gripping urban love story about forbidden hearts and the price of choosing passion over peace.
