When Alexa discovers her seemingly heroic father built a secret second family, she's determined to rebuild herself from the ruins of his lies—until she meets Caine, a man equally shattered by her father's devastating choices. Caine pushes back hard against Alexa's attempts to help him, weaponizing his worst self to drive her away, but their intense chemistry keeps pulling them back together in ways neither can resist. What unfolds between them is raw, explosive, and dangerously real—two broken people finding solace in each other while grappling with whether they can ever truly heal. Samantha Young crafts an emotional, unforgettable romance about redemption, second chances, and the transformative power of letting someone in.
