When a cocky, irresistible charmer finally meets his match, sparks fly in the most delicious way possible. Anthony Gallo is used to getting exactly what he wants, but Maxine isn't playing by his rules—and that only makes him want her more. Their intense connection burns hot and fast, but Max is hiding something that could blow everything apart, forcing Anthony to choose between the man he's always been and the man he wants to become. If you love a redemption arc wrapped in steam and genuine emotional stakes, this one's a total keeper!
