Love will make you feel safe...
right before it breaks you down.

I thought I had it all figured out.
Junky was my day one.
My rider.
My soulmate.

Yeah, I know Junky is a wild nickname.
But trust me, he is more than you would imagine.

The one man I swore would never cross me.

But I learned quick.
Some people only love you when it benefits them.

And when the betrayal came
Yep, he did it.
And yep, I left.

Now I cannot even stand the sight of him.

They say time heals everything.
But the past always finds its way back.

Mine came loud.
A man who does not know how to let go.
A man who does not forgive.
A man who loves hard and breaks harder.

No matter how I move
I cannot win.

Or so they think.

Because what they do not know is this
I am determined too.

And soon I will find out who is really on my side...
and who is about to wish they were.

A standalone African American romance with an unhinged male lead, a second-chance love built on betrayal, family secrets that refuse to stay buried, and loyalty tested against Los Angeles street justice.
No cliffhanger.
