Book overview
I was told I might never have children. Then I fell for a man who already had a family.
After devastating fertility news at thirty-six, I decide I'm done waiting for my life to begin. If my future isn't going to look the way I planned, I'll build a new one myself.
So I move to Manhattan.
New job. New city. New rules.
Then I meet Deacon Black.
Powerful. Private. Infuriatingly attractive. The kind of man who built a billion-dollar empire but still structures his life around bedtime stories with his daughter.
He doesn't do relationships.
I don't do "almost" anymore.
What starts as accidental chemistry becomes something neither of us can ignore. But his life is built on stability, and I refuse to become a complication he can walk away from.
Because I finally know what I want.
A man who chooses me.
A man who fights for me.
A man who doesn't make me wait.
And if Deacon can't be that man?
I will walk away.
Even if he's the hardest man I've ever had to leave behind.
Because this time...
He risks his heart.
Or he loses me.
A steamy, emotional New York romance about taking control of your future and risking your heart for the one person worth it.
