Eight years ago, Chris Brown walked out of Veronica Ball's life with a promise:
"I'll come back for you."
He became a superstar.
She became a mother.
And somewhere in between... she lost herself.
Veronica's life now is nothing like the future she imagined.
Trapped in a toxic relationship with her son's father, hiding bruises beneath makeup, and doing everything she can to protect her five-year-old boy she hasn't felt safe in years.
Until Chris comes home.
One unexpected encounter in a grocery store at midnight is all it takes for every buried feeling to come rushing back. He sees the fear she tries to hide. He sees the pain she won't speak on.
And he refuses to walk away again.
But Malachi-her ex, her mistake, her nightmare won't let her go.
Not without a fight.
As rumors explode, secrets unravel, and danger tightens around her, Veronica finds herself torn between the man who hurt her...
and the one who never stopped loving her.
He left to chase his dreams.
He returned to save her life.
And even after everything
she's still his.
