Before Milan Brooks ever met Kairo Anthony, she'd already made up her mind about him.

His name always came with a warning. According to her friends, he was nothing but trouble-a street dude with a dangerous reputation, a charming smile, and a habit of breaking hearts. So when the infamous guy from the neighborhood starts showing interest in her, Milan does what anyone with common sense would do: she ignores him.

The problem?

Kairo isn't used to hearing "no."

The more she brushes him off, the more determined he becomes to prove he's not the man everyone says he is. Between stolen glances, unexpected run-ins, and undeniable chemistry, Milan starts to question whether rumors tell the whole story... or if she's been judging a man she's never really known.

They say first impressions last forever.

But what if hers was never her own?
